Greetings and welcome to the Pandora for Creators Community! This is a space to learn about AMP tools, connect with other creators and get support.

My name is Chris and I am one of the Moderators and a Lead Support Specialist on the AMP team 🙂

If you are new to Pandora for Creators, please introduce yourself! You can feel free to include:

• A link to your music and/or podcast on Pandora
• An artist that inspires you
• Your favorite AMP tool

I’m happy to kick this off!

Here is a link to my band on Pandora.

David Byrne is an artist who truly inspires me. I was fortunate enough to see him perform a few years ago and marveled at how he was able to reimagine songs I’ve heard a million times to sound fresh & exciting with new live arrangements.

The AMP tool I think is special is Artist Audio Messages. It is such a unique way to connect with your audience that can only be found on Pandora.

Once again, welcome and don’t feel shy!

Here is a link to my original music, If you have a chance check out my new release "Does Anybody Talk to Anybody, Anymore? It's about the lack of direct human contact in our digital world.

A band that inspires me is the Traveling Wilbury's love the collaboration of such a huge wealth of talent (and it sounds like they were having fun)

 

Still figuring out the AMP Tools

Hello everybody.
Thanks for inviting me to the Pandora Community.
Let me introduce myself.
My name is Frank Iengo; I'm of Italian origin, and I'm a music producer in several genres.
My artistic career as a musician and then as a music producer has been an exciting journey through genres and styles that are very different from each other.
This gave me a 360-degree view of music and led me to produce music of various types, such as soundtracks, house music, Chillout, and new age (to name a few).
Sometimes I wonder; why you do all these genres and not just one.
And over time, I gave myself the answer.
I'd be bored out of my mind doing just one thing.
Different projects allow me to express myself freely in various musical styles, thus avoiding confusion among listeners who may love one genre but not another.
The link below will take you to one of these projects.
The project is called On Piano, a project of solo piano music in the neoclassical style.
Feel free to take a look and let me know your opinion.

Thanks for sharing @svulcano! Your song has a very powerful message, we have definitely come to rely heavily on digital communication these days - for better or for worse. I hope the irony of us connecting on an online Community isn't too much 🙂

I also love The Traveling Wilburys! A supergroup in it's truest sense - Everyone brought so much to the table in regards to song-writing, musicianship and production. I would have to say that Jeff Lynne is my favorite Wilbury but I am a huge ELO fan 😉

We appreciate you introducing yourself @frankiengomusic. I admire your ability to be a musical chameleon as the genres you mentioned are quite varied. I wish I had more time to really branch out and try something different. Making a New Age album would be a lot of fun! 🌟

I have listened to On Piano in the past and it is so peaceful. It has helped me to focus which is amazing since my brain is normally moving a million miles per hour haha. I highly recommend it! 🎹

Hi Chris.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my "On Piano" project.

If I understand correctly, you are also a musician, so I encourage you to try and do different things.
I must confess that differentiating is fun but, at the same time, interesting because every time you accept the challenge of doing different things, a world opens up for you, both musically speaking and technically.
This is because every time you want to get the most out of your music productions, you are forced to learn new things regarding recording, mixing, mastering, and more.

Oh... by the way, if you're a musician, please share your music, so if it's relevant to my playlists (not just here on Pandora), I include you.

I wish you a lovely weekend.

Hi everyone 👋

My name is John and I am part of the AMP Support team. I don't make any music, but am a lifelong music nerd.

An artist that inspires me is Dolly Parton. Her career, catalog, and personality are unmatched!

My favorite AMP tool are the Creator Notifications. These notifications are great ways to get weekly updates on how your music is performing on Pandora straight to your inbox!

Thank you. I feel honored to be part of the Pandora Community.

Hello, John; thank you for sharing your musical preference (Dolly Parton).
Since I was curious to hear who Dolly Parton was (I didn't know her), I
looked her up, and I must say I appreciated her.
Thanks again for sharing her name.

I hope you have a nice weekend.

Frank

 hey y'all ☝️❤️ that's me Sherry Rice bit my artist persona is Sherry Querida (that's Sherry Darling in Spanish  

I decided last April to live my dream of being songwriter of the year (seriously) and so said a prayer, grabbed my phone and started downloading apps for songwriters and composers having faith that God would respond.   He did.  I'm not a performing artist because my vocal chords were crushed after being nearly strangled to death twice.  As I started composing a song I was determined to sing the lyrics rather than try and coach someone to do this for me or fumble during a co-write.  God was good and although my voice is not what it was... It's enough to express myself.  So.... Singer/songwriter and since April I have written composed and recorded 125 new works.  4 released as singles even though the production was done on my phone.   It's momentum.  I'm about to release an EP and I'm proud of it.  Still not studio but since April I've had over 200,000 spins and I'm not shy of sharing the reality and limitations of both voice and equipment.  

Taking in all of the socials and the neverending work required to become current and attempt to trend has been a huge challenge.  Making the kind of connections with other creators that inspire new opportunities and trusted relationships is important to me.  

 

Looking forward to checking out your work and learning contributing interacting with y'all 💕

 

I have more listens followers on my personal profile than I do on my artist profile.  Gotta fix that.

Thanks for the invite - aside from writing and producing for myself and others, I create Lullabies under the name Dreamy Sugar. https://www.pandora.com/artist/dreamy-sugar-childrens/ARvnlfVptkXZdf9

These are inspired by some of my own favorite songs - a highlight was recreating The Beach Boys Pet Sounds in it's entirety as lullabies.

Most lullabies are instrumentals, though we'll be doing some with vocalists in the near future.  Thanks for getting this going...!

Welcome @gigantesongs ! Very cool to hear you write lullabies. I can see how translating "Pet Sounds" to lullaby form must have been a very interesting experience.

Hi this is Nate Donnis, my band The Donnis Trio has been an artist on Pandora since the early days.  I've been so grateful to the Pandora Algorithm for introducing my music to so many listeners and fans.  I'm here to participate and understand on how I can best stay connected with fans/listeners and grow.
