I Am Independent - For Independent Music Artists

We thought it was about time we heard about the life of an Independent artist from the perspective of a producer. Wyld (Paul Kirby) is from Guernsey but now based in Manchester in the North of England. He started out as a drummer, progressed to making tracks and doing remixes before making his big break collaborating with other independent artists from all over the World including New Zealand and the U.S. Paul speaks to us about his journey, the highs - getting to the point of earning a wage from his streaming income, to the lows - being broke and feeling like giving up while struggling with his mental health. It's an illuminating chat that we hope will inspire you to collaborate outside of your genre, keep on keeping on, and knowing your limits mentally and getting help when you need it. Paul also gives us some great practical tips for getting your tracks on Spotify playlists and how to approach other artists for collaborations. Check out Wyld's latest single, Carry Me, which is out now. --- Send in a voi
