How to Turn Your Other Skills into Career Gold with Rebūke | EF EP 126

Most artists compartmentalize their lives - music over here, other interests over there. Rebūke shows how to fold your entire self into your music career. The same kid who got pulled out of geography class to fix teachers' computers now creates stunning 3D visuals that have transformed his live shows and opened entirely new revenue streams.

While other artists outsource their visual content, Rebūke taught himself Cinema 4D, Unreal Engine, and AI visual generation. His shows now feature production value that looks like a massive team but runs with just him and his VJ, sometimes creating content on planes between gigs.

Key Takeaways:

• Why learning adjacent skills can become your biggest competitive advantage
 • How to identify which of your existing talents could enhance your music career
 • The strategic decision between outsourcing vs. learning new skills yourself
 • How visual content has expanded his career beyond traditional DJ bookings
 • Why being the "computer nerd" in school set him up for success in modern music
 • The mindset shift from "I just make music" to "I create experiences"
 • How childhood interests can become professional superpowers
 • Why artists who embrace technology early gain massive advantages

Stop limiting yourself to just music production. Your "other" skills might be exactly what sets you apart in a crowded industry. Hit play to learn how to identify and leverage the talents you already have.
