Your goals/dreams as a musician?

Sports, politics, movies, videogames, questionable hobbies, photos from your family vacation, etc. Talk about stuff that isn't ponies or music. But do try to stay on topic and respectful of alternate opinions.

As far as production goes, this.

As for trumpet, getting any money at all for playing it would be good, but idk.

My Cover: I want to eventually be able to express myself fully in my music, perhaps influencing other musicians as well.
- I also really want to blast my music with a gigantic sound system that can shake the earth.

My Real Motivation: I hate clubbers, bros, and jocks. Always despised them. I will one day make them rely on me to improve their personal lives, and it'll be beautiful. They'll blast my music in their cars, dance to it while trying to put up a fake personality to impress the ladies, and buy expensive tickets to see me.

Many years later I'll probably focus on family, and I'll slowly stop producing, to the fans dismay. I'll eventually reveal the truth of my motivation behind my music, and there will be outrage. Delicious, sweet rage.

One of mine is to get a photo of Skrillex handing me a hammer. Me and a friend have a running bet, he was perscribed some antibiotics that happened to make hime kinda doped up.

"and so your boon is granted and Skrillex grants you his hammer!"
"I'm gonna get a photo of that some day. You watch."

And so the quest begins...
I'm not here anymore, but if you want you can still just call me Mr. BigBagelBoggle!

I want to be that guy that can play his music and get the crowd ready for the main event yet still have a good time with me. I don't want to be too famous, but I like being part of something like that. Ah well, dream a dream.

Right now my dream is to earn enough money making music to quit my day job. I know that my music can be great someday, and while I am (definitely) not there yet, every song is better than the last and I learn every day. Time is currently my biggest limiting factor, and time=money....so yeah.

Other than that, I want to make a track that makes people feel as good as Foozog's smile remix makes me feel (or Archie's magic is timeless). If I ever made something as good as those two, or as good as Avicii's bromance or silhouettes I could die happy.

Tldr: make enough money making awesome music to spend all my time doing it.

I'm 3/4ths of the way done living your dreams. Also skrillex is kind of a queer.

To be as good as Stock Aitken Waterman, to entertain the fandom, to entertain the masses, to get better at music making/production, and to one day score a collaboration with one of my favourite stars of the show.

I guess I'm going to have to work hard :D

I want to have something that even slightly resembles a studio.

A midi keyboard
A shitload of midi controllers (launchpads and apcs and maschines and all that kind of stuff)
A piano
A microphone
SYNTHS OH GOD SYNTHS I WANT SYNTHS
and instruments like guitars and stuff

that is my dream

EDIT:

Okay then I want to achieve good enough music making so that I can make an album

I just want to be able to express myself in a beautiful manner through my music. Hopefully also to have people listen to and enjoy it. Oh and to perhaps use it in the video games I or someone else will create. ;)

I want to stay true to myself, keep doing what I so desperately love, and keep on innovating.

Also I'd like to be somewhat more known xD
And have a bit more skills regarding creating sounds by myself. I got melodies down. Now the sounds that produce the melodies. Presets can be great, but my own would be better ;,,;

Current dreams and goals: eventually get into either game sound design or composition. Currently i'm still in highschool, but I'm impressing people who I've looked up to, so I'm feeling fairly confident! :D

Also to stop being such an introverted socially awkward retard! Oh, and get a job... Aaaand lose 30 lbs. oh, and start to get stressed out over the never ending stream of shit you need to do to get into college... Yeah...
