I am sure you have hundreds of emails but I just wanted to thank you most sincerely for being so generous with your time, giving us such a good webinar and sharing your love of songwriting. It was great, useful and enjoyable.
Todd
I just wanted to thank both of you for your time, song critique and suggestions. I found the call with Angela extremely informative and helpful. Martin your analysis of my tune was spot on! I will pair my skills together with your suggestions and come up with a plan to proceed forward. Thanks again!
Jasmina
I wanted to let you know that already from your masterclass last night, I feel like I am in the right place – this is exactly the kind of support I needed right now at this stage in my career. Furthermore, having taken other academic courses in songwriting, I really love and value your particular approach, mindset and the content of your teaching from your professional experience, it really is compressing “decades into days”.
Riccardo
Thanks Martin, this is awesome!
Dan
Brilliant first session Martin. Very insightful and learnt so much! A lot of great techniques to take away from that webinar, I will be using the 7 step planner immediately. Looking forward to the assignment and the next 49 weeks.
Meredith
Thank you for sharing your insights and revelations! It’s truly a beautiful gift to have people willing to share what they have learned.
Shayne
Wow, wow, wow— Thank you so much for the stellar Week One webinar, Martin. My thoughts are just racing right now. And I am a bit nervous and freaked out at the moment… ha ha. I haven’t been active making music in over 25 years. But the assignment is just the kick in the back-side that I need right now to actually get me creating again. I’m the master ninja of procrastination– so this is really the push to get me moving. Thank you so much for the push to get going, Martin. Much gratitude
