SV: Looping as profession

I produce recordings of music, I perform music (quite often with
loopers), I play instruments on music recordings and live with other
artists, I write articles on music, I write books on music, I teach
about music/music software/music instruments/music business related
topics, I advice people.... Well, the only work I do that has nothing
"strictly" to do with music is producing web sites. But to me it is very
similar; the same balance between harmony and disorder, the constant
searching for "the right false notes", the difficult art of implementing
a gesture for something "well known" and then twist it - not too much -
just enough to show that you know the common ways but choose to do it a
little different. I'm not making any big money, in fact I earn more from
cheap living than  form getting paid.

I'm 47 and each day I look around to see if I will not grow up soon, but
still no sign for a change in that direction ;-) 

Best wishes

Per Boysen
