What to Know Before You Hire a Music Producer w/ Matt Mayz

I once hired a producer to finish my song and told him to make it good enough for editorial playlists.

I'm back after two months off, and I recorded this one at Matt Mayz's studio. Matt is a producer and mixer who has worked with dozens of musicians, he's a SubmitHub curator like me, and he's the only person I ever taught Ableton to (he switched to Logic).

We talked about what to have ready before you hire a producer, whether to spend your feedback money on SubmitHub curators or a pro on SoundBetter, what a producer is there for, why your DAW doesn't matter, and if music school is worth it.
