If you like music and have been producing or practising from home for a while, you’ve probably asked yourself this question more than once: is it possible to turn this into a real professional career? The answer depends not only on talent but on the path you choose for your training.
In an industry as competitive as music, studying a music degree is not just about learning theory or mastering software. It means having access to a professional environment, mentors with real experience and opportunities that allow you to leap from your studies to impactful projects.
A very clear example is the case of Vaskan, a DJ and producer trained at EUMES, who produced an electronic version of the Girona FC anthem that is currently played at the Montilivi stadium.
From the classrooms to the stadium: when studying music opens real doors
This project did not appear by chance. The reinterpretation of the Girona FC anthem was born during Vaskan’s training period at EUMES, as part of his learning process in music production.
Starting from an initial idea and with the direct guidance of an active industry teacher, the project evolved into an official release under the electronic label Rave Sons. In addition, it is the first track released in Catalan on the label.
The most relevant thing is not only the final result but the process: working on a real project, with professional criteria, deadlines, expert feedback and a clear purpose. This is what differentiates studying a music degree focused on the industry from learning in isolation.
The importance of community in a music degree
Another key element of the project is that the track was performed by EUMES alumni. This fact reflects a reality often invisible to beginners: music is also network, collaboration and community.
When you study a music degree in a professional environment, you not only develop technical skills. You also build relationships with other artists, producers and future industry professionals with whom you will share projects, ideas and opportunities.
For many young creators, this environment is what makes the difference between staying producing in their bedroom or starting to become an active part of the music scene.
Music production as a viable professional path
A music degree specialising in music production goes far beyond learning Ableton, FL Studio or Logic. It involves understanding the entire creative and professional process behind a musical project: composition and musical structure, sound design and artistic identity, recording, mixing and mastering, teamwork and communication with clients or artists, adapting the sound to real contexts such as clubs, festivals, audiovisuals or brands, among others.
A music degree with a specialisation in music production prepares students both to develop their own artistic project and to collaborate with brands, institutions, record labels and large-scale cultural projects, like the one that has brought EUMES talent to be heard at Montilivi.
Why a music degree can be a real professional outlet
The idea still exists that studying music is risky or that only a few can make a living from it. But the reality is that a well-guided music degree opens multiple professional paths beyond being a club DJ or producer.
Music production, sound for events, audiovisual projects, brand collaborations, music for sports, digital content or cultural institutions are just some of the possible paths when you have solid, industry-connected training.
Vaskan’s case shows that when training combines practice, guidance and real opportunities, talent can find spaces to materialise.
