Peace. This year (2024) I was blessed to earn at least 2 new music credits every month on major TV, Film, and Record Label projects. My desire with publishing this course is that you surpass my success by gaining the opportunities you want with the music you are creating - especially in Film/TV/Visual Media.


We just launched the Everything 1x Music Library Network, which is accepting music submissions to pitch and license the approved songs to TV shows, films, music supervisors, executive producers, and independent filmmakers in our network. “Pressing Play” Course 1 will TRAIN a team of creatives and managers to effectively utilize the Music Library Network, and other opportunities, by creating the most organized and efficient music in the business. Whether you are an independent music maker, manager, or signed to a major label, this course will help you consistently earn more equity from your music NOW.
