Milestones

My road in life took a while to figure out.
My band got into conflict and disbanded.
It opened doors for me to work with other people.
While working with other people, I got into the wrong crowd which then resulted in some conflict.
Focused on my brainchild - 22 Tango Records and worked on building its foundations.
22 Tango Records became a legitimate and established music company and record label.
22 Tango Records is now venturing into music publishing and merchandising.

Day to Day

Mornings, I write songs and play guitar. Afternoons, I go to my office and work on my communications / emails, etc., study demos, create events and build them up - coordinate with suppliers, artists, and do promotional campaigns to build an audience. I meet with my team to brainstorm on new projects and coordinate on existing projects and activities. Evenings are usually for studio work, events and meetings.
