Remember the value of custom content. There are so many ways of finding sound for your projects these days – but in my mind (and I might be slightly biased), there’s nothing better than using custom-created sound. It gives you material that’s created to exactly match your requirements and fit with your project and vision. It also gives you a unique brand asset that you can use going forward.

If you're interested in synth sound design, the best thing to do is pick one synth and learn it inside out. Whilst there are an enormous number of softsynths on the market and their architecture varies, many of the lessons you'll learn by focusing on that one synth can be applied to the others

Learn as much about music as you can. My personal approach is that if I'm working as a composer, I want to know everything I can about music. I love reading and studying music, even when it is way outside of what I'm doing. In my opinion, everything that you learn or realize will add to your subconscious voice as a composer.

Always be open to new styles and diversify, but be REALLY good at a couple styles. Always study music when you’re able, with a teacher or on your own; you’re never too old to do that! Often, artists can feel like they’ve hit a plateau. Those are great times to scrap the way you do things, and learn other ways.
