There’s nothing better than seeing people who’ve taken my courses succeed, and this is such a great example.
Bob Ellis started releasing music under the name Silent Gratitude in 2023, and has been an active member of my community since 2018.
He’s also an ex-RAF pilot and air-racing champion, and at age 68 just got his first record deal with ambient label Solara Records !
In this episode I chat to Bob about how this all came about, and cover plenty of other ground along the way, including:
- How a mastering course can help with mixing and composition
- How being an RAF pilot helped Bob get a record deal (!)
- The importance of community and connection to Bob’s success
- Why he moved from making EDM to Ambient
- His writing and production process
- And why he still chooses to have someone else master his music
Not to mention that fact that along the way Bob built his own plane…
