MMMM: Fuel your creativity, design your life, stay focused and back to Block
Things to make you go MMMM on Thursday
by Darien J
"To inspire and encourage electronic artists to Make, Manage and Market Music every day."
Three thoughts for your music and one on mine.
3 for you:
Broaden your horizons to fuel your creativity.
"Don’t just surround yourself with the same people from the same cliquey groups. If you are an entrepreneur, study design and architecture. If you are a writer, study film or art. The point isn’t acquiring new skills, the point is fueling your creativity by immersing yourself in other forms of creativity." - Dan Norris
You have the power to design your own life.
"Beware of looking for goals: look for a way of life. Decide how you want to live and then see what you can do to make a living within that way of life." - Hunter S Thompson
It’s very easy to lose focus. If we didn’t believe we could make something great we wouldn’t start in the first place. At the same time we must also be ok with making crap too. It’s all part of the process.
“To be great, one must make great work, and making great work is incredibly hard. It must be our primary focus. We must set out, from the beginning, with complete and total commitment to the idea that our best chance of success starts during the creative process.” - Ryan Holiday
1 from me
This Friday 29th September I return to Block for a solo outing behind the decks.
I’m sure there’ll be a few guest appearences throughout the evening too so if you’re in Brighton make sure to pop into Kemptown’s favourite bar and say hi.
Until next week
