Hey, this is “Fear of Music” by The Ririverse!

Why subscribe?

Music is one of the most popular products in the world and simultaneously an exceptionally scary endeavour. Dreaming is only allowed until you grow up and settle down.

Here at “Fear of Music” we disagree to give up music or dreaming. Here we talk in depth about music itself as well as the process of its creation. We discuss the impact that songs have on us, unearth the technical and emotional aspects of songwriting and producing music.

But we also tackle the universal human fears of missing out and not being good enough.

Subscribing gets you:

• Conversations on fighting impostor syndrome;

• Tips for nurturing your creative self and improving your creative process;

• Music recommendations and in-depth analysis of great songs;

• Songwriting and lyrics-writing techniques;

• A piece of my mind on the inner workings of the music industry and music community.
