The Efficient Collaborator's Guide

[Ale_K]

Ever start a collab and wonder why it cant be finished?
Well from my experience doing multiple collabs, I have noticed some things that might help make collabing more efficient

1. Start by talking about structure with your collaborator

• ABACAB Format for example
  
• Break down of instruments wanted 
  

2. Know what you want to achieve with the collab 

• Genre?
  
• Style?
  

3. Communicate working time

• Make sure you are both committed to working on this 
  
• Make sure you can prioritize personal life while still trying to create a great product
  

4. Know each other's strengths and weaknesses

• Talk about how one person can help the other 
  
• Know what they can accomplish and accommodate
   

These are the main things I try to communicate in successful collabs. 
Let me know if I have missed some things

Thanks. 
Alex!
