The Three Legs of a Successful Music Career

I was a guest on the Thumpmonks podcast, talking about my composing career, technical issues, and the role of social media in promotions. Host Brian Gocher and I had a lively conversation and it’s available in the Thumpmonks YouTube channel as well as other popular podcast destinations.

From the podcast description:

LA-based composer David Das attributes his success to three critical legs that have launched his musical career forward. David has composed music for Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox, Dreamworks, HBO, PBS, Telemundo, BBDO, and countless other top media companies. Download this episode of The Thumpmonks podcast to hear Brian and David talk composer to composer. You will learn how you can apply David’s three-legged approach, get a peek at some of the gear behind his sound, and hear wise advice on kickstarting your opportunities when the gigs slow down.
