This episode I talk with my friend, music producer, DC from Soulplusmind. I’ve known DC for about 5 years now since we started working together on our album Blessed. He was already knee deep in music licensing. We’ve actually had few placements together. But DC is constantly pushing to stay on top of his craft and learn the ins and outs of that side of business. Right now DC has a music licensing directory available for purchase at www.Soulplusmind.com to help artists get into licensing with a head start.
