music workshops, studio engineering for djs, cheesy white labels or related is the only way you could make a living in music i suppose? unless your well marketed in what you specialise in

correct me if im wrong

Playing gigs is where the money is. My club night has paid up to £1000 for a guest and some people want more than that.

Wanna book me? I'm really modest, y'know...

Made exactly 270 Euros so far this year, but if you add up all guest list entries and free drinks, it all together might make the worth of 500 Euros!

I'm a part time DJ, part time supermarket shelf stacker. I hope i can make a living from music. No other job interests me.

I work in a place called wagamamas, some of you guys might know what that is. I also run fear of flying record label, and make music in my spare time.

I am going to release a cd soon,
I don't intend to make any money out of it. But anything that I do make i'm going to put straight back into my productions.

I have a day job 30hours a week at a supermarket selling meat. Going to do a Electronic Music Production course at SAE college in Melbourne, Australia. If anyone has ever done the EMP in any country, i'd like to talk to you and ask you some questions about the course!
