I've been posting and following this sub reddit for a while and you guys have always helped me out with production questions and great responses but this time i have something a little different.
I have been working on a solo project for about a year now and it is all set up for a release this October. I have a great manager who also manages my roommate and best friend who is the BIGGEST local dj in my city and is just getting into production to start his career and move forward.
I have the opportunity to release my project in October as a duo with him. He is not the best at production (yet) but is an excellent dj who shares the same taste and drive for music as i do. He has also has been my best friend for a very long time and we have taken a lot of "mind altering substances" that have helped us connect on a spiritual level (If you know what i mean). Our manager is also pushing for a duo because he feels we can progress much faster in the industry together and i agree with him.
BUT, i need advice and possibly some experiences from you guys. This project has been my pride and joy for the last year and i have made all of the music myself. I don't want to have some emotional fallout with my best friend that would kill both of our careers or even more so split us up as friends.
I need people's advice and if you are in a duo, how do you make it work? How do you balance each others contribution to the brand?
How Do You Make It Work.
