FINALLY! This dude answers the question that I keep asking myself. Everybody else on the internet, mostly these "influencers" keep saying it's all about the social media content that you create for your branding, etc. He literally just said that there's no one way of doing it. You CAN be a nobody but have AMAZING music, or be someone that has a social media following and some decent content behind it. At least this tells me that the music industry is still honest about wanting to find that raw talent in up and coming artists.
Exactly! There’s no magic bullet no one way to do it. The one thing that holds true time and time again, it’s all about the music. You gotta have great songs!

The big hurdle is getting your music solicited to them. They usually will never listen to someone who has not been solicited to them from trusted sources. If you feel like you have mastered your craft, getting in front of the people who will put your music on their desk is the most daunting task.
Absolutely Ashworth. Without the solid songwriting background and foundation you really don’t have anything to build on. Everything else will grow from there. Thanks for being an Insider. MUBUTV
I was lost and this gives me so much faith in the music industry. It's good to know that they still sign a 'nobody with great music' Thank you :) I'm gonna be working so much harder on my craft now

I've produced music for over 45 years and have seen the seismic shifts in the "Business of Music" and not certain this is how it's done at all labels. Atlantic was different from day 1 when Ahmet Ertegun and Herb Abramson founded the label in 1947. Ahmet, Herb and later Jerry Wexler ran an independent label like a major one. Obviously they became an incredible label over the years. If you only collected one label, Atlantic had / has it all in terms of music genres. Initially a rhythm and blues, blues and jazz label. The team was always looking forward and in particular Ahmet had an ear for the future, musically wise. Glad to listen to what Pete Ganbarg says and looks like he has continued much in the same tradition of the past 75 years of Atlantic's existence. It must be in the genes as they say... Great interview.

Its refreshing to get the source from where it matters. In a world where the gold rush gets its wealth from the sale of pans & shovels (exploiting the prospectors) rather than the gold itself, I am pleasantly surprised to learn that the gold is still valued (i.e Pete Ganbarg's explanations) I write songs and I put a lot of effort in offering both great music (and great story). I believe the two together is what comprises "Best in Class".

Hi Demetria, and thanks for your question. It really depends if your music is really ready to go. It’s such a competitive market out there. There’s a lot of noise but not a whole lot of substance, the music has to be superior.

My biggest struggle I think is securing live performances. I can see how people react when I play live, and though it gives me a lot of confidence, not enough people have seen me. Lately I've been working on virtual performances, at least I can do that on my own, but I really need a booking agent. Hopefully this doesn't sound arrogant, but I am one of the best piano players in the world, I just gotta get more live performances, I think that's the key. If there's a booking agent out there, I have 1300 views on my UA-cam channel, and I don't even really know how to promote myself. They mentioned 21 Pilots and their great team. I have a team of one, and it's lonely out here lol 😂. Lisa
Hi Lisa, and thanks for your comments. Booking agents will only want to work with you if you already have a following and are doing good business on your own before they decide to want to work with you in our experience. Maybe look for someone that is more independent or someone that wants to learn the booking business that believes in you and have them start booking your shows. The key is building it on your own first and once you have the following down and are selling maybe in 3 of the nearest cities to you in your market, then you’ll have a greater chance of landing a decent booking agent. Hope this helps in finding direction on this subject. MUBUTV

I really really want too talk too Him! I have so much passion and such an open mind, I’m writing my own music finally now after all the extreme traumatizing events in life plus just how too get through life still with positive vibes even if there’s none in sight. While making my own beats, and I’ve started playing guitar and piano by sound. All life long passions I’ve decided I better hurry and try before I run out of time, specially because I see the world differently from all sides

People like Pete know that every day someone out in the millions has written a song that with the right artist, would be a top 10 hit. I had an idea that if record companies would set up a website where songwriters could upload songs for free; maybe has categories and a limited time like 90 seconds for verse chorus and maybe another verse. Leave off any cats they don't need. Maybe they're currently looking for country but no rap, or vice versa. In an 8-hour day, a couple of good a&r listeners could listen to a lot of 90 second clips and spot the potentials. then contact them for info and a full upload. Maybe they need a good Ballad, so the upload isn't full of up-tempo or again, vice versa. They would definitely hear hidden gems they might have never found.
This is a good idea! It's a win-win for both songwriters and record labels. It could be a new way that new music is discovered and give talented artists a platform to be heard. MUBUTV
Hello, and yes they have signed and continue to do so. You may want to check in your local country from where you are based.

The "R" in A&R stands for "Revenue". It's never about the music. It's about picking 10 rando acts, and bank on the one or two to make it big, then chuck the rest. Rinse and repeat.
Atlantic were coming to you soon. We like your ethics and I'm holding a beast of a singer whom we keep off line so now we have a full CD completed. Platinum artist.

Hello Albert, thanks for your comments. As far as submitting to Atlantic, we would really say no. The question you have to ask yourself is, is your music at the level and quality it needs to be. You are competing against everyone in the market place, is it truly at that level to currently compete. You would be better served to continue building your craft of writing great music and building your audience, and if it is truly something that stands out, you will be noticed.

This is an amazing interview. Great questions and great answers. I'm a pro mixing engineer and I'd like to work with labels. Is it the A&R who also hires the mixing engineer for an artist? Thanks in advance.
Hello Angelo, sorry for the delay in responding back to you. We have been feverishly working towards launching our new content. In regards to your question, typically yes an A&R would be making those decisions, but it’s probably moved more to a case by case basis depending on the act itself and if they already have folks they are working with that the label may approve. It may be best to reach out to the label managers at the label itself and establish contact that way.

It depends on their submission policies. Most majors don’t accept unsolicited material unless it comes from a trusted source. That could be a music attorney that has a working relationship with the label or A&R directly or through some other means.

Actually a&r team are there in the big labels to refuse people but a&r team look for people that are getting big influences so they contact him otherwise is not possible
In order to get signed by an a&R team today you need to already be successful and making a lot of money with a large fan base. No record company will take a risk with an unknown act anymore.
This was very informative but do labels sign artists of different ages? Like, I heard they dont sign artists that are in their 30's. Even if they have a big hit on tiktok and huge buzz on other platforms, they're popping and doing numbers independently. I think this is just a myth i dont think its true but i would like to hear what you think. Can you please respond?

I knew in my gut feeling this record label is the label I hope to be signed by. He didn’t rush any answer, took the time to answer questions many of us have. What a great interview! Definitely helpful and informative :)
Yes, he seemed like a likable guy. A family man.

I've produced music for over 45 years and have seen the seismic shifts in the "Business of Music" and not certain this is how it's done at all labels. Atlantic was different from day 1 when Ahmet Ertegun and Herb Abramson founded the label in 1947. Ahmet, Herb and later Jerry Wexler ran an independent label like a major one. Obviously they became an incredible label over the years. If you only collected one label, Atlantic had / has it all in terms of music genres. Initially a rhythm and blues, blues and jazz label. The team was always looking forward and in particular Ahmet had an ear for the future, musically wise. Glad to listen to what Pete Ganbarg says and looks like he has continued much in the same tradition of the past 75 years of Atlantic's existence. It must be in the genes as they say... Great interview.
Hi Charles, and thanks for your great comment on the continuing tradition of Atlantic Records. Pete is definitely continuing to build on those very standards that has defined Atlantic as one of the greats.

Its refreshing to get the source from where it matters. In a world where the gold rush gets its wealth from the sale of pans & shovels (exploiting the prospectors) rather than the gold itself, I am pleasantly surprised to learn that the gold is still valued (i.e Pete Ganbarg's explanations) I write songs and I put a lot of effort in offering both great music (and great story). I believe the two together is what comprises "Best in Class".

If someone wants to get signed by a record label should give a try and send his demo or not??
Hi Demetria, and thanks for your question. It really depends if your music is really ready to go. It’s such a competitive market out there. There’s a lot of noise but not a whole lot of substance, the music has to be superior. We would suggest building your songwriting skills and continue to write and collaborate and start building your audience. If your music resonates with an audience believe us they will come.

My biggest struggle I think is securing live performances. I can see how people react when I play live, and though it gives me a lot of confidence, not enough people have seen me. Lately I've been working on virtual performances, at least I can do that on my own, but I really need a booking agent. Hopefully this doesn't sound arrogant, but I am one of the best piano players in the world, I just gotta get more live performances, I think that's the key. If there's a booking agent out there, I have 1300 views on my UA-cam channel, and I don't even really know how to promote myself. They mentioned 21 Pilots and their great team. I have a team of one, and it's lonely out here lol 😂.
Lisa
Hi Lisa, and thanks for your comments. Booking agents will only want to work with you if you already have a following and are doing good business on your own before they decide to want to work with you in our experience.
Maybe look for someone that is more independent or someone that wants to learn the booking business that believes in you and have them start booking your shows.
The key is building it on your own first and once you have the following down and are selling maybe in 3 of the nearest cities to you in your market, then you’ll have a greater chance of landing a decent booking agent.
Hope this helps in finding direction on this subject. MUBUTV
@@MUBUTV Thanks! I'm starting to do some virtual shows, is that a good idea? It's something I can control, and I can upload the videos

@@MUBUTV just did!
People like Pete know that every day someone out in the millions has written a song that with the right artist, would be a top 10 hit. I had an idea that if record companies would set up a website where songwriters could upload songs for free; maybe has categories and a limited time like 90 seconds for verse chorus and maybe another verse. Leave off any cats they don't need. Maybe they're currently looking for country but no rap, or vice versa. In an 8-hour day, a couple of good a&r listeners could listen to a lot of 90 second clips and spot the potentials. then contact them for info and a full upload. Maybe they need a good Ballad, so the upload isn't full of up-tempo or again, vice versa. They would definitely hear hidden gems they might have never found.
? twice ?
This is a good idea! It's a win-win for both songwriters and record labels. It could be a new way that new music is discovered and give talented artists a platform to be heard. MUBUTV
Great one, really help me to find what was my mistake, be good at your work opportunity will knock your door, thanks a lot
Does A&R sections sign foreigners? How to set a meeting with them..and How to get Signed.. Please tell me..if i am a new singer
Hello, and yes they have signed and continue to do so. You may want to check in your local country from where you are based.

The "R" in A&R stands for "Revenue". It's never about the music. It's about picking 10 rando acts, and bank on the one or two to make it big, then chuck the rest. Rinse and repeat.

Should I try to submit my music to Atlantic records?
Hello Albert, thanks for your comments. As far as submitting to Atlantic, we would really say no. The question you have to ask yourself is, is your music at the level and quality it needs to be. You are competing against everyone in the market place, is it truly at that level to currently compete.

This is an amazing interview. Great questions and great answers. I'm a pro mixing engineer and I'd like to work with labels. Is it the A&R who also hires the mixing engineer for an artist? Thanks in advance.
Hello Angelo, sorry for the delay in responding back to you. We have been feverishly working towards launching our new content. In regards to your question, typically yes an A&R would be making those decisions, but it’s probably moved more to a case by case basis depending on the act itself and if they already have folks they are working with that the label may approve. It may be best to reach out to the label managers at the label itself and establish contact that way.

But how do artist submit to labels? How do they get they’re music pass?
It depends on their submission policies. Most majors don’t accept unsolicited material unless it comes from a trusted source. That could be a music attorney that has a working relationship with the label or A&R directly or through some other means. The moral of the story is if you’re making great music and making noise on your own, you will get on their radar. Thanks for your questions and thanks for being an ‘Insider’. MUBUTV

Here's my question when you wanna sign an artist do they call them and say hey come down we wanna talk to you and go from there or how's it work
Hello and thanks for your question. This happens in a number of different ways, too many to mention here. But if they like what you’re doing, usually they’ll come out to a show to see you in a live performance setting, if they like you there they could approach you.
Or they could see your video or see you online doing a performance etc.

Only thing I can think of is being able to get this guy to meet in a studio setting. The music in the background was distracting however as an artist I understand A&Rs are so busy you have to be able to carry on through the noise because they are always on the go.
All and all great Job. You have the talent for this keep pushing forward.
LOOKS and someone else writes and auto tunes your album! Awesome!
How can we send demo to Atlantic Records recordings.Can we directly send demo to them on email or Gmail

Actually a&r team are there in the big labels to refuse people but a&r team look for people that are getting big influences so they contact him otherwise is not possible
In order to get signed by an a&R team today you need to already be successful and making a lot of money with a large fan base. No record company will take a risk with an unknown act anymore.
@@TheMentalblockrock yes that is true
This was very informative but do labels sign artists of different ages? Like, I heard they dont sign artists that are in their 30's. Even if they have a big hit on tiktok and huge buzz on other platforms, they're popping and doing numbers independently. I think this is just a myth i dont think its true but i would like to hear what you think. Can you please respond?
