The tip about following up, but not too soon, is golden. 👍
Awesome vid, thanks for the insight!
Definitely a very helpful video guys ✌️✌️🔥
Speaking of Politeness, thank you Aden(same name as my son) for all these tips. Very helpful, eye-opening advice. Trying to make moves in this world and that stuff really helps. Thank You.
If you are sending to a big major label off Beatport and you do not know anyone that works for the A&R good luck. You need to have a good following and physically meet the person who runs the label, that's your best way to get your demo heard. 9/10 out of these bigger label relations are released based off of physical networking. Send to smaller labels via email with private Soundcloud link that has at least two releases a month and you are more likely to get released.
Yep!
In a way labels are bias when it comes to selecting artists to sign
😊
i just hit 30 rejections from NCS this morning; if I get to 100, I'm going to be quite disheartened
its sad that your socail media presence has anything to do with your music, some great amazing artists have zero need or time for social media
Look into sync licensing. Doesn’t matter who you are, your music does all the talking in that world. It’s a lot closer to reality than people realize, and getting record label deals is cool and all but getting your music chosen to be on stranger things would probably be WAY COOLER
@@Bittamin Well, it's 'cool' to say labels don't matter, that self-publishing is the way to go, and great music will out in the end. Fact is, if a genius is unknown he's going to remain unknown unless he has exposure - over 60,000 uploads a day on Spotify, an unknown artist is a drop in the ocean.
It's also very sad that you basically have to write clickbait subject for your email, instead of just artist name - demo.
What if we dont know what genre our music is. Mine blurs the lines between deep house, progressive house and trance
Find the music that is the closest possible to your sound, and see which label that music has been released on.
