This weekend i was at Lögdö Music Expo, A great event with lots of people in the music business holding seminaries about what they do for a living and discuss how to make your music into your living. At night there where live performances from local bands.
One thing that i really took with me was when i record label guy told us "I never listen to more then 10 sec of the songs on demos that we get" I wanted to try this, so what i did when came home was to open up Spotify and listen for 15 sec (10 sec is too short.) of all the songs in the top lists. I copied every song that i liked after 15 sec into this playlist:

Its all good songs! they really are pop-hits, or at-least mainstream hits. This bothers me a bit, the man told us that he never gave it more then 10 sec. Which means that the music i listen to should never have been picked up at a label, cuz it usually takes more then a few listenings to get the idea and start liking it. anyway.....
Chapters 4 and 5 are done. Chapter 4 I managed to score a VG+ (18/20) and 5 i got MVG (19/20)
Its been stressful to do two chapters in a week and I fear that I will forget everything much sooner this way. Next week I'll have to do two more chapters to come up to speed. hopefully it will go well and I wont forget to much. I noticed that there is a Quiz for all chapters, thats really nice, It can act as my final exam.
I recovered a book from my parents storage today, "Bass Guitar for Dummies" I'm going to try and use it when I teach. not figured out in what way yet thou. More on that later.
Cheers!
