How Can the 80/20 Rule Can Boost Your Career in Production Music?

The 80/20 rule, or “Pareto Principle,” is a concept that states that 80% of the outcomes in life can be attributed to 20% of causes, and as it turns out, this principle can also be applied to our development as composers. 

On this week’s episode, we unpack 5 ways to use this 80/20 rule to boost our careers in production music, as well as talk about some pitfalls to watch out for if this all goes sideways.

Plus we feature an intense, electronic tension cue written by 52 Cues community member, Kris Claerhout (https://kc-fyx.disco.ac/lib/4137).
