Pick Yourself

Pick Yourself, training and resources for electronic music producers

Pick Yourself is a blog and training platform aimed at electronic music producers looking to develop a sustainable music career. Its content combines articles, courses and coaching sessions around four areas: music production, promotion, career and skills and mindset.

Music production

The site offers resources to write songs faster, create arrangements that keep listeners engaged, mix your own tracks with confidence and get club-ready masters.

Promotion and audience growth

In the area of promotion, Pick Yourself addresses building an authentic artist brand, strategic release planning and the possibility of being featured on influential blogs, magazines and playlists.

Music career and mindset

The platform also works on the professional side: how to build a career without selling out underground culture, ways to earn money following your passion and strategies to navigate the music industry. It also adds content on mindset, time management and productivity.

The Pick Yourself principles

The project is built around three principles. The first proposes creating music that matters and finding your own artistic voice. The second advocates cultivating a tribe of a thousand true fans instead of chasing social media followers. The third recommends focusing on long-term strategies rather than one-off tactics.

Blog content

Featured posts include an interview with Linn Elisabet about rebellion and electronic music with a mission, a guide to writing an outstanding artist bio, an article on music industry secrets and another on how to make money from music and turn your passion into a career.

Free guide and services

The site offers a free guide aimed at finishing and releasing at least one great-sounding song every month, with three steps to go from being stuck in the loop to becoming a prolific producer. In addition to courses and coaching, the website includes a blog and a contact section.
