  Stock music is the 'bread and butter' trade for many producers because it's simple and formulaic to make, it's constantly in demand, and it can earn a steady stream of royalties for the composer over time. The YouTuber who uses your music makes ad revenue, you get a cut through your royalties, everybody wins!  The key to succeeding with stock music is developing a technique, a system with which you can quickly and reliably make tracks that YouTubers want to use, and that's where I come in.   In this class we'll be making a track for the fastest growing demographic of videos on YouTube, deep and moody. Whether it's videos about true crime, solving mysteries, SCP content, movie recaps, and so much more; all of it needs your moody creations.   To get started you'll need a DAW music production software, I use Ableton Live 11. In the class I'll also recommend some plugins to elevate your tracks that include several from Spitfire Labs and Waves as well as Valhalla SuperMassive. Some are free, but others aren't. I'll explain more in the class. Let's get started!
