EP#80: 3 Steps To Establishing More Respectful Music Collaborations
Whether you’re in a band, have a team or are a totally DIY, solo musician, you’ll likely need to work with other people from time-to-time to get your music out into the world. But it doesn’t always feel easy or rewarding and, even worse, sometimes – especially if you’re a woman in music – collaborative relationships can be disrespectful. So, inside this episode, Isobel shares three steps you can take to ensure your collaborative relationships are respectful, rewarding and successful. Isobel also shares her own past experiences of disrespectful collaborations and how destructive they can be, not only to our self-esteem, but also our enthusiasm for following a career in music. This episode will show you how to make collaborating in music feel awesome.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS{0:00} Intro{03:34} What Forms Does Collaboration Take In Music?{05:32} Why Collaboration Can Be Tricky (Especially For Women In Music){10:48} Isobel’s Experiences Of Disrespectful Collaborations{15:26} 3 Steps To Respectful Collaborations As A Woman In Music{35:39} What To Do When A Collaboration Turns Sour{38:11} Why You Don’t Need To Collaborate With An Ar*E H*Le, Even If They Say You Should{40:22} Episode SummaryListen to EP#17 with Neeta Sarl >>Listen to EP#51 with Emily Nash >>Listen to {BONUS EPISODE} Why Music Technology Education Has (Largely) Failed Women >>Read the House of Commons Women and Equalities Committee Misogyny in Music Inquiry >>SUPPORT FOR UK MUSICIANSMusician’s Union Bullying and Harassment Helpline: 0800 088 2045Help Musicians Music Minds Matter Support Line: 0808 802 8008 Music Support helpline: 0800 030 6789Ready to level up your music making with the powerful art of field recording?
