so why are you still in the music biz?

If you betting for immortality music is the key. If you betting for money music wont give you any.

Music writing is not a HOBBY to me. This is PASSION. Passion can not feed you either. Hobby yes I known a lot of folks here with a hobby that earns a lot of money.

Music professional who took a college degree like major in piano, voice, guitar, violin are they doing it for hobby?


Come on darius you have more reason why you are still here. Want me to tell the reasons? This is my observation and this can be wrong I praying im wrong.

1. Youve been too long in our local music industry but you still at the bottom of the foodchain. You try to come out and break in your so called shell but you came too short or sometimes you overshoot your target.

2. You love to bully others while in their infancy of their career and hide in your aliases so you can bully more. So what do you get. No pals but tons of nemesis.

3.Your band mates left you because you are arrogant you feel you are the GOD in their music world. Some left the country because they dont see any improvement from your part as their leader who control everything. They feel if they form a new one you will hound them like a rabid wolf. They thought back then that the moment they popularized YOUR song you gain more in the songwriter royalty part while they get only a loose change of artist royalties because the way how you treat them they are all session musicians. Like a soldier in battlefield they can be replaced anytime and any moment of you likings.
Then you can buy a new car while you kick you band member to go abroad because you brainwashed then that there is no money in music.

4.You hate to accept rejection. The moment we reject your song you immediately create a vendetta mode in our company. Not because you been in the industry for very long it doenst mean your betting average to song pitching is high. In fact you pitch only one song. If you pitch 10 then probably this converstions doenst exist. Probably you are on my side not on matanglawin side.

5.You spend most of the time pissing other people works. Not all songwriters here lurks in your forum where you dominates like philmusic or songwriterPH. I tell you if they can able to read all you generalized comment to some of the songs published to us and you are not offering anything like suggestion maybe then more and more of our kababayan will hate you.

Well I have more but I think this will be enough at the moment.

I have a hobby too. GArdening, reading and listening to music is my hobby.
Hobby is the things you write in slum book when you are in high school and it changes overtime.
