Musicians Institute (MI) — Hands-on training in contemporary music performance, recording, production, and music business built for real-world music careers.
Stop letting the "Ghost of 1998" kill your music career by clinging to an outdated business model that prioritizes pennies in sales over a sustainable brand ecosystem. In this video, we break down why Spotify and other DSPs aren’t the villains, but rather the "Netflix" syndication stage of a three-part Hollywood-style funnel designed to turn passive listeners into high-value superfans.
