I agree. New gear is fun, but it's not the answer to the problem. That money and time should be spent on learning more about writing and making industry contacts.....

Back to the music..... I'd like to hear the stuff you are currently writing and producing. That way, the cards are on the table so to speak. Advice could be offered at that point.

I mentioned TAXI.... their forum is free. Many of their other educational stuff is free too. Submitting songs requires the membership.

One word of advice (well maybe a few)... if you take offense to advice and criticism on your music, don't post on the TAXI site to ask for reviews and comments. They are all about songwriting and some crits can be "harsh". However, if you can't take criticism, you're in the wrong business if you're trying to place music.

Add nothing that adds nothing to the music.
You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
