I'll show you how to reignite your creative spark, so that music doesn't feel like a chore - starting TODAY.
I'm Kevin "KTGotBeats" Taylor, but everybody calls me KT. I'm a music producer from Birmingham, Alabama. Thanks for stopping by!
Most people know me as a producer, but I'm also a producer coach and product consultant for music technology companies around the world.
I never had all the answers. I just had to get started and figure it out. In 2002, I started tinkering with a keyboard called the TS-10 and had to play everything by hand. No laptop, no loops, no direction.
This was a frustrating time, because I was trying everything I knew to be like Timbaland, Pharrell and Kanye, but I wasn't sure if what I was doing was working or not. I was disconnected and doubted myself a lot.
But in 2009, after seven years of wandering around without guidance, I started connecting with producers a couple of steps ahead of me. I got my first laptop and my first DAW (Fruity Loops, now called FL Studio).
Even though I had a long way to go and a lot to learn, getting mentors and a community were a critical part of how I was able to find small wins that led to bigger wins.
At first it was producing for local rappers, doing a LOT of free work, until I finally started to find my purpose within this journey. Once I knew my WHY, I didn't care what the typical success story looked like.
Fast forward to today, and I'm doing things I never even imagined, like playing live shows in front of thousands.
And I'm proud to work with award winning creatives and companies helping me earn millions of streams across 195+ countries, and consult businesses with 80M+ users on music technology.
I believe that music is about self-expression first.
What I'm most proud of around my journey over the last 20+ years, is that I've gotten to leave an impact.
When you know WHY you're doing what you do, any accolades are secondary to the purpose you are here to fulfill. Plus it takes the burden off of you to achieve perfection or maintain an image.
And in return, you will always stay inspired with a direction for your career journey.
Thanks to having certain principles as a producer, I'm able to spend time with my family, work with people I actually like, and create with confidence.
If so, you're in the right place! I've been through the ups and downs of the music producer life many times over and I want to show you how I've learned to face the challenges head on.
