Some producers have a hit or two by sheer fluke/talent and the subconscious knowledge of a lifetime of growing up with music. However, making hits songs consistently is not just about talent and the occasional fluke. There is a science to the art of making hit music.


Hit Songs Deconstructed will equip you with tools that will allow you to make hit songs more consistently.
