Michael Di Monte

A light-skinned man with shoulder-length dark brown wavy hair, parted in the middle, looks directly at the camera with a subtle smile. He wears an unbuttoned dark blue collared shirt over a black t-shirt. The background is a softly blurred brown door.

My name is Michael Di Monte and I am a communications student who specializes in music and audio production. I love songwriting and I’m obsessed with the creative process. I hope to build a career in the music industry!

Research

My research project explores the experiences of the modern independent musician and the ways they use digital technology to produce, distribute and market music independently. My research highlights the changing role of music-makers, diving into their creative processes, distribution practices and monetization methods.

A moody, dimly lit image shows a person from behind, with reddish-brown hair and headphones, intently focused on a computer monitor displaying music production software (DAW). To the right, a synthesizer keyboard is visible. The image has a white diamond overlay in the center with the bold text 'CREATE, DISCOVER & SHARE' and three white dots above and below. White text at the top reads 'The Modern Music Producer', and at the bottom, 'A Research Project by Michael Di Monte'.
