Hey Jon, I feel you. When I was young I had big dreams to make it big in my field (not music) and I tried in many different ways. I struggled and I failed. I was devastated. I eventually gave up and found a corporate job that fulfilled me personally and brought financial stability. Many years ahead, after a great career into senior mgmt, it allowed me to retire by the age of 50 and chase my dreams. So I started making music for fun and as a hobby. In retrospect I don’t regret any choice I have made. And for my still fairly young retirement age I can now take care of the things I always wanted.
So I hope your future will be bright, and no matter what you do, do it with all the passion you got. If you loose passion, change something

I’m 49. I have been producing electronic music for more than 25 years. I consider myself quite good. I promoted dozen of event as well back in the days.
But today I do music for myself as a gift from life….which is the true power of music.
The scene is awful nowadays.
Once you are free from codes….the real fun begins.
I have conserved everything, knowing days are changing and I would have fun in the future with this mindset….which is still the case.
I know what is it to produce with half you brain creating the music and the other one worrying about all thé rest….that’s not good.

You listened to your inner voice, which is the most important in the end.

Cheers.

Wishing you the best for your future endeavors. I have been around this channel and you for years. I relate with all the confusion. Thank you for the last motivating part.

[MastiksoulTV]

So many people resonate with this. Congratulations. You are free

[gennovense]

Wow this is unexpected, I haven't watched your videos in years but I used to when I was into DJ'ing and producing 6-7 years age, time definitely changes your perspective. All the best!

[djcolinturnbull]

Good for you speaking out on this! It’s not about talent or skill anymore. It’s about Theatrics! But I do think talent will prevail in the end. The crowds need education.

Best of luck with the new direction! and for keeping it real!

[OHHnoYOUdidntMAN]

Damn, i've watching you since 2015.... congratulations on the family and everything new to come. Love you Jon

[gestalt]

It sure does, Jon Sine. Those of us who've been following your journer are actually behind you. If you get to keep doing what you truly wante to do, as you said, without chasing anything you'd rather not be doing, then that on its own the goal and maybe a dream that's been achieved. What else could a loving family many want, providing for his family do what he loves most. That't is for me.

I produce music for myself instead of producing for attention

I dont get far with this but im happy with it

It makes me independent

[thenotoriouscam]

I think your career is about to take off! You inspired me to get back into music and I appreciate everything you’ve done. It’s been an hour to watch your journey through the years

[DCXTV]

Been a EDM producer/artist for 28 years, and just got past 5k subs this year with this account from 2008. Working as a full time artist, scraping by but wouldn't do anything else (probably couldn't even do anything else with all the insomnia things). My music's gotten more experimental this year and more enjoyable to make.

Very moving and honest video. I identify with these ideas. Thank you.

I got lucky when I was 21 and my sister's boyfriend was a high profile remixer with his brother doing U2, Lighthouse Family & loads of other pop acts. I gave him a demo of stuff that I had been working on for 12 months and he passed it over to an industry manager who owned a record label. Long story short, I was signed at 21 and went from poverty to earning a fortune overnight and had a decade in the music business doing remixes and writing original tracks for various labels. The 90's were a golden time with huge sums of money everywhere, you could literally buy a house after doing 2 or 3 remixes. Napster & piracy ended the gravy train and remix fees went down 80% within 12 months. By 2005 it was impossible to make a living from remixing and many (including me) changed career paths. I started designing sounds for composers and other artists and the general decline has continued with AI the nail in the coffin. My advice if you are young and love music, do it as a hobby and get on the Ai train or some other growth industry. The golden days are long gone and want be coming back.

i quit ghost production last month after almost doing it for 5 years. now i am just producing music i like and a job that pays me.

[djlysto]

You’re a great producer. I’ve stopped that journey 10 years ago and just produce at home and helping others. I don’t promote myself through media out YouTube. In my 50 now and still enjoy sitting playing some keys and reached my son to play the guitar and working on being a duo with my son as I also help others on a personal level

[geertdepuydt]

There's so much more talent out there playing compared to 20 years ago. Truly amazing talent.this makes competition much more fierce, and the internet is a huge part of the arena.

[ot-mills]

Congratulations! Sounds like a natural progression to me. I know a lot of DJ's that have taken this path, nothing like sitting in the studio, working on music with no worries of marketing, social media and all that BS.

[LaraTahm]

hey, i am so proud of you for making this decision. It's great to see you are able to cut the parts in your work that you don't like and only enjoy the parts you enjoy the most!!

[DiBBs]

Sometimes letting go of the grandeur is just what you need to elevate the career that is your real passion.

[traezaX]

Excellent work. All the best... It's taken me years to accept that I'm an artist rather than a producer... And mix engineer... Now focused on the artist stuff ... To make exquisite hit songs that are based on The Bible 😊
