👇 ABOUT ME:
Hey! I’m Damian Keyes and I've worked with musicians every day of my life for the past 20 years. The internet is de ply untrusting understandably and here is my background so you can have the full picture.
When I was 18, I was signed to a major label and at 23 I co-founded a Music University in Europe called BIMM (valued at $300M). I’m also a bass player, I’ve played for a number of artists including Eric Clapton, Alanis Morrisette and Billy Cobham. I initially retired at 30, but realised that life gets boring if you’re not building!
I have always been in-between the music industry and education which is how I ended up building my RUclips channel - I’ve been teaching artists how to release music long before it was a ‘niche’! I now educate artists around the world with my Academy, RUclips channel and Social Agency.
It’s great to meet you and looking forward to working together on your music!

We really need to give Damian a HUGE thank you for providing all of this information for free. Super grateful.
This is very kind, thank you!
We doooo
It’s free but it’s not we don’t pay him but RUclips does
I'm heterosexual. But i love him. He is a great human being
Going live on TikTok has changed the game for me. First time I’m actually feeling like I’m building a community and super engaged fans.
Love that. Going live is an easy way to get the algorithm on your side too :)
@@DamianKeyes honestly going live every night this past month has done more for me than making content for a year! I’ve finally found something that works for me
How has it gone in the past year? When you made the I think 60 second required Tik Tok video did you have to do a comical take as it seems you must in order to get attention? I mean do a crazy dance as you sing etc or can you just simply sing? I don't have a band, just myself and guitar and sometimes harmonica too, and piano. I just went to your channel and can't find any of your songs but a lot of vocal training videos. You aren't really a songwriter and performing original songs so the Tik Tok video you created was to attract people into your baritone vocalist lessons? How have Damian's techniques worked for you?
@@mwj5368 those singing videos are not mine bro ahaha. I still go live a lot and it still helps but probably less now
Did you get scared of people judging you
I got a 4 million stream here on one of my songs, but I’m gonna make my new song more than that because of this ♥️♥️
i actually followed your 22 days plan for my last release and man i went on local tv, national radio and many playlists on spotify and i just want to say thank your for dropping the best information possible and yes i also unfollowed all the other people who tells you strategies that hardy ever work !
Ahh this is amazing to hear!! 🙏🙏
Congratulations, keep smashing it
@@DamianKeyes sure man 🥂
@@mattwolff2669 sure
Genuine questions: How many copies of your release have you sold to date? If you graph your sales per day, what curve does the graph plot? What is the nett profit on your total sales to date i.e. total sales minus sales, distribution, marketing, production and living expenses?
This video has come at just the right time for me. My mindset has finally shifted to where I really am starting to believe in myself, and I’m creating a narrative of what I stand for to share with the world through my music and art. Thank you!
I'm so grateful to have you with me on this journey. Your content and support drives me to continue even on the dark days. Thank you for breaking down these ideas! 🙏
Thank you so much. Means a lot, I’m always here to help 🙏🙏
Greta job man, breaking down the process here. Sooo many people have no idea how to do this, and its VERY important now in the post-record label age. Labels did everything for us before, (unfortunately,) and now we need t learn to do it all ourselves. Production no longer costs a ridiculous amount, advertisement doesn't either, booking isn't very hard either. But if you have no clue how to even start, then you will never get there. I really feel like most people just need a starting point and a tiny bit of guidance, just to get them running in the right direction, then If they're dedicated they'll run it the rest of the way. For years I've been looking for the insight that's in this channel, so really, thanks dude you're a credit to the industry!
Ahh this is so lovely to read, thank you dude 🙏
I’ve just done my day 1 of this strategy, positing a mini music video as my first RUclips short! 😬 I’m a brand new indie artist with my debut single set for release on 16th Feb, so I’m going to follow this plan alongside the 23 day release plan, and see what sort of engagement I can get starting from scratch! Wish me luck!
Gracias Damian! Como cantante en Chile , justo hace unas semanas comencé un nuevo plan de contenido y hacer trending con mi música, y realmente este plan que nos muestras me está ayudando a reforzar, ordenarme y lograr conectar con más personas. Feliz poniendo en practica estas herramientas! 🇨🇱🌎🎵
A Personal Tip. Draw a physical diagram of your Audience Funnel. (Or his box example)
Write each user's @ and categorize them based on their level of engagement etc
Thanks, Damian! This is great information! We appreciate you so much!
Groovy shirt, Damo! Thanks for the awesome content as always.
I always try!
The Value of this video is insane. Thanks a lot for this Damian!
Ahh thank you 🙏🙏
WADAFAK MAN, you just organized all things Ive been thinking about music marketing. People love to spend thousands in ads for their clips, but I knew it had to be like this. Thank you A LOT.
Really thankful for all that free content full of value. We're really blessed for having you as a mentor
I'm really grateful for your ideas... Content creation for me is just singing and playing my bass ... I really really wish I was this creative in making content ...
I'm way too much invested in producing and recording songs but creating content I need to take this step by step because I know I won't be consistent
I’m grateful for you watching the video! Let’s gooooo
Thanks for sharing this golden info man, I've been spending years honing my craft and neglecting a good marketing plan for my music, gonna be binging these videos and taking notes! Cheers!
Finally, something I can look at lol man THANK YOU soooo much, the workbook was sorely needed. I can’t wait to get consistent with this
I am struggling with this but you are helping give me a sense of direction. Thank you.
The covers part is true!! I covered a song by Lana Del Rey last year that has millions of streams across platforms and recently covered another one of her songs and have amassed almost 300k streams in two months alone. Covers are your friend!
Some great ideas I never thought of . Thank you...and I like your shirt!
Thank you!! Shirt is from All Saints (they still won’t sponsor me!)
I am getting back after a long hiatus - around 100 million plays of a song of mine under my belt, but in some ways I am like a newbie. Now I am going to watch all your videos, go through a couple of cycles and then I'd love to hire you for a consult:)
Thanks Damian! As someone who feels clueless around social media, you break it down into something that is doable. Appreciate ya!
Bro u also bless us with priceless information we appreciate your love
Great Video! Thanks for the download as well, always helps.
Glad to help dude!
Thanks Damien, truly inspirational. I've been telling my housemates. We are all particularly inspired by the way your shirt is unbuttoned to perfectly reveal the dazzling blue pendant on your necklace. Gently resting above your beating heart. Mine beats for you
lol Thanks so much, Appreciate you!
Been following you since 2020 during quarantine when I dropped my FIRST self produced beattape (I am a rapper and singer) ! Sometimes I tell my wife I thought of these ideas myself 😂 but mostly I tell her hey babe I just watched this new Damian Keyes vid, can you please help me film 109 videos 😂 You rock Damian !!
Damian keyes got the 🔑 literally 😂😂
always appreciated dude!! love this, definitely need to stop overthinking things haha.. lets roll!
Let’s roll!!!
We owe Damian a massive thank you for sharing all this information at no cost. Extremely appreciative! This is Amazing!
we're creating an algorithm
Learning a lot from your videos thank you 👌
This guy is an angel…. I’m going 1 song per month with everyday content for 2024…. So this is most needed
Your the man Damian!! We really appreciate you
I really needed this cause i really want my songs to be known
Step by step bro 🙏
Super grateful for these tips, they're giving me the confidence to actually go out and make it happen
You got this!
Very helpful! Thank you King. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
What will be extra challenging would be doing this while wearing a brown bag on your head. You know... Being anonymous while trying to build a fan base.
Such valuable information it's almost criminal how accessible and well-branded you and your team are Damian! 🔥
Thank you Dude! I loved you in Star Wars by the way! 😅
Hi Damian
really appreciate the video
im stuck in terms of how to build my social media as I don't have any songs out yet.
Awesome strategy! Will be implementing a bunch of this 💯
Thank you for your guidance once again Damian! I've been a little lost with social media lately and this just helped so greatly! THANK YOU ❤❤
So glad to help ❤️
My Damien is a God❤
Cool! Funnel psychology, thnx damian, you're always best advice for musicians ❤
Thanks for this bud... very informative. Always enjoy listening to your great advice.
We are living in a very strange times for artists ! I myself am a musician (classical) and a composer ! I’m definitely going to try this !
I do think though that people now a days see (as you say) so much content in a day … I think at the end of the day they don’t even remember what they’ve seen ! As evil as the music industry has been throughout the years and we all know by now , they had a structure of how to get out to the public with the ‘actual big artists’ from the past as we know them ! I think those days are over of that kind of stardom… maybe I’m wrong but… time will tell…
Damian u the Boss. All these for Free daaaamn. Thank You
This is gold
The intro to this video was so dramatic. I loved it. 😆
More dramatic intros coming!
Great tips, looking forward to putting them into practice soon and seeing what results I get. Been seeing a bit of growth on youtube lately.
Hi! Thank you so much for giving such valuable information, it helps a lot!! Just have one question, shld i do this pre-release or post-release of a new single?
Thanks, great content
Thanks Fabio!
This helps so much!! Thanks for the awesome video!!
Appreciate you, thank you so much
This holds gold!
Appreciate you!
Truly inspiring! Thank you for this amazing info!
Sure looks like gold. Sounds like gold. I'll get back to you in 30 days and let you know how it goes! Thank you, DK.
Let’s go!!
hi. how did it go?
We can't even call these tips, it's a blueprint!
Let's do it!
We're definitely getting into the cover world 🎵🎶. My mind is buzzing with ideas 💡⚡💡 including U2 bits just for the flavor! We're working on a long version, but in the meantime we can release small bits. Makes so much sense!
Thanks as always xoxo. Simone
Awesome!! Looking forward to seeing it!
Hey Damian, I've been struggling with this question: what if you're not sure of the quality of your music, would you still say that following a plan like this could be beneficial? I guess it does give you feedback on the music and it's still putting yourself out there, just kinda scared of embarrassing myself you know.
Thank you damian! I'll join u next month on DK Academy
Whenever you’re ready! 💪💪
l am so thankful for your advice Damian Keyes .
Hmmmm I really love this. A month version of your 20/21/22/23 Day Release Plans niiiiice thank you!
🙏🙏🙏
@@DamianKeyes I'll add these to my diary full of short content brainstorm ideas that haven't been made yet. You know my biggest obstacle?? Data management. My phone & laptop are so full constantly it puts me off making more and even when I do, everything is agonizingly slow or crashes, it takes so much time & effort. I know this would be a dry AF topic, but I all everyone around me who deals with music, film, photography or all three and it's the bane of everyone's existence. I'd love to know your thoughts on the subject
Brilliant stuff - again, you are an extremely polished speaker almost machine gun delivery. I'm going use all this, but I need a ski mask or somat as I prefer anonymity.
Wow cool video and top fx....love it. Guess i only have about 50 people in the smallest box🙃 btw congrats to 200k !
Thanks dude! Really appreciate that. Let’s expand those boxes 😊😊
Great post DK, it aint easy, however put the work in!!!!😎😎😎
This video is so useful… appreciate alot imma use this method for sure.
Playing for the big box is my favorite! Those little box folks freak me out 😂 Cheers Damo!! 🐒
🙏🙏🙏
Hi Damian. Thank u for useful info 🎉 My question is: CAN I PUBLISH TIK TOK VIDEO, THEN COPY VIDEO FROM THERE AND POST TO IG AND RUclips? I think it could save a lot of time instead doing same text above video. Thank you 😊
I love this video! I've watched it a few times to get the extra little nuggets that I missed the times before. Yesterday was day 1 for me of posting. I have stuff scheduled for day 2 today!
I'm really excited because the first mini music video got over 1,500 views in the first hours and also got me 4 subscribers! It was super successful in that department. It also got 24 likes and 9 comments! Unfortunately, it clearly wasn't target correctly yet, because it also got 13 dislikes and some of the comments were actually pretty shitty.
I know it's not that I'm a bad musician, I have been performing professionally for over 20 years. In my 20 years, I've had to endure quite a few comments, some great, some negative, and some downright abusive. It's not about the performer, stuff like that is really about the commenter.
I wanted to write this out to give a little bit of a cautionary tale to anyone expecting only positive reactions to their content. We are putting outselves out there. SOME will LOVE us, MOST will not, SOME will hate us. Just be prepared for that.
This was something I was somewhat prepared for, but not like this, because this was the piece of content that has garnered the MOST negative reaction out of anything I've ever put out. Licking my wounds and peparing for
This info is LIT!! Thanks Damian!
Coincidently, i did go to buy underwear a few hours back but couldnt find what i was looking for but now with Damian's latest video advice I will get them for free lol Brilliant advice again !
Hahaha! Thank you!
Loving the video edit. Clean and entertaining! Step up
Thanks bro!
Solid, thank you.
Thank you so much Damo! You stuffed full of inspiration and great ideas🤘
Thank you! I hope it helps 💪💪
Damian with the examples and actionable steps
I always try!
gotta watch that a few times,,, you got this down!
You are a legend Damian
Hey Hunter, this is really kind of you to say. Thanks brother!
Thanks for this new video Damian, you give me so much strenght! Love ya' 😘
🙏🙏
Always watch your videos man, unfortunately never implement them lmao but I will now that I’m getting back in the swing of things
You got this!
Amazing ideas, one of your best videos. Thanks so much!
Thank you! A lot of work went into this one
Does the repost not get penalized for duplicate content? Are you supposed to change anything or refilm it? Appreciate you putting this out!
Just repost the videos that had the best engagement now and then, sparingly
I’m definitely trying this when I’ve finished school but what would you recommend for a band? Should I as the singer and guitarist do the covers and acoustic version? Also, should the mini music videos be of different songs or the same one?
That's really great 👍🏿 appreciate again ❤️
Gre
One thing really interests me in this video… turning down the original track. Should it be audible at all? Or simply that it’s code is there for algorithms?
Also, do you generally expect copyright issues if you boost those videos?
Great video, really useful content... notes take 😁 My only question - Did you have someone dare you to make a video before recycling bin day with the recycling itself? 🤣
Haha! I was collecting boxes for a couple of weeks 😂😂
Hi Damian! What's up. I just wanted to ask you what do you think about making music in Spanish and directing it to an English-speaking public. It's there any chance of working?
Thank you for all the content you give us, it's extremely useful
Thank you so much.
Appreciate you thanks. I have the biggest video of the year dropping today. 'How to release a single in 2024'. It's a big one, hope it helps 🙂🙂
I'm a techno artist, therefore I find it hard coming up with ideas for short music videos. There's no lyrics I can sing to and I don't want to just dance. Should i make a video of me playing a MIDI controller? But that seems boring and there would be no cameramovement
i saw a lot of lofi beatmakers or just instrumentalist, they do it like that, with nodding or face epressions (or if they had pets, they dance with them and this is cute tho but if its suits your brand etc.) i think this is okay.
@@jooheonshoneybal Nice thank you! Will try that out!
Tell a story on screen with text maybe about song inspiration while you play the midi maybe or like a POV of you mixing
Uau from 🇧🇷 I’ll try since today!
Remember that episode of Black Mirror where they live in a kind of Pop Idol - based universe and the guy who threatens to kill himself ends up using that once genuine sentiment as a kind of brand? Isn't it just like that sometimes
Damian, do you mean upload full length covers or short versions of covers, like 20 seconds as tiktok usually is?
That intro was INTENSE
⚡️⚡️
Hey Damo, what if I feel too insecure to post these videos? Or nervous that people will react negatively?
It’s not easy for sure! I started on RUclips at 40 and everyone laughed at me for doing it. Negative reactions are sadly a part of human nature, all you can hope is that the positive outweighs the negative!
Anyone doing anything right gets negativity and you do get used to it :)
Start by just creating, don’t give yourself the pressure of posting, just create and get better initially 😊😊
@@DamianKeyes Thank you! Love your content
Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the awesome video! Is this plan mostly just recommended for implementation on tik Tok? And/or for example maybe a new artist has a FB, IG and tik tok - is this plan just meant to be used via one social media artist profile page (eg only tik tok) or should the same daily content be getting posted to multiple different social media artist profiles/pages (eg post the same exact daily content to tik tok, IG and FB) or something in between, like doing daily tik tok posts but maybe every other day or so on the other social media platforms? If that question might make any sense haha
I'm planning on my August content and I'm using this as a guide. While I love covers and completely understand your strategy for including them, what's to be done about copyright strikes on RUclips??
Hi Damian, You’re the best but you know anyway 🙂 How do you post cover songs on social media without copyright infringement ? Thanks for the great vids and info. Best Mark
You’ll normally just get a claim rather than a strike, so it’s all good. You just can’t monetise then
@@DamianKeyes Thank you for the reply, I will read up on Claim and strike ✌🏼👍
@@DamianKeyesactually you can monetize 👍 Spotify for example
@@macquade1967You can upload/sell to leading streaming services such as Spotify, amazon deezer tidal etc. The only problem is that your cover won't be everywhere. If you don't have mechanical rights, you have to exclude a few countries at the upload stage
Great videos
