Hear me out…

Yesterday, a reader responded to The Daily Draft Club offer with the following message:

“This is dope! But honestly, I don’t have a problem starting tracks, my problem is finishing them. I have too many tracks already that need to be finished.”

To which I responded, “Stop trying to “finish” your music!”

Look, I'm not saying delete everything and start from scratch.

Some of those half-finished projects sitting on his hard drive might actually be gems waiting for the right moment.

But here's something I've learned after producing music for two decades...

It’s hard to tell the good stuff from the mediocre when you're so close to everything.

You probably know this feeling, right?

You pull up that "almost done" project from a few weeks back. Give it a listen. Something doesn't quite sit right. So you tweak the kick a bit. Now the snare feels off. The bassline starts bugging you. Two hours later, somehow it sounds worse than when you started.

This is called beat purgatory. Where half-way decent ideas go to die.

Here's the thing...

When you only have a handful of projects going, they all feel important. You convince yourself every track needs to see the light of day.

But here’s the hard truth…no they don’t.

They're not bad tracks. They're just...fine.

And it’s really hard to polish "fine" into "amazing."

It’s also very time consuming (remember opportunity cost!)

But here's what I've noticed when you approach it differently...

When you focus on creating an abundance of NEW ideas...

Winners start to become obvious.

You'll have tracks that practically want to finish themselves.

Ideas that pull you in so hard you lose track of time working on them.

Almost like magic…they practically finish themselves.

I've been through this cycle A LOT…

This is how I felt every time I finished one of my remixes or originals in days.

The energy was light and infectious.

Those tracks that took me weeks or months…not so much.

When you've got 20 or 30 new fresh ideas to choose from, you naturally drift toward the ones that genuinely excite you.

And that excitement? That's what actually gets tracks FINISHED.

Some of your current projects might be absolute fire. Others might need to stay unfinished, and that's totally fine.

But you won't really know which is which until you have enough options to compare them against.

That's what The Daily Draft Club is all about.

30 new track sketches in 30 days.

Apart from accountability and support, I'll also share all my shortcuts for making music FAST because…

Life's too short to spend months on tracks that aren't going anywhere.

By the end, you'll have a much better sense of which tracks (old and new) are worth your time and which ones you can just let go.

If this sounds interesting, the deadline is June 6th at 12pm.

Limited spots available and they are filling up.

Just reply with “I’m in” if you want to join the club

P.S. I’ll also show you how I’m flipping a bunch of the tracks I make during the sprint into video content for Instagram & Tik Tok.
