    Hi, label A&R here (USA). These tips are definitely practical, I'm just not sold on how actionable they are for a developing artist. In other words - these work great, and are actually the standard 10 bases to cover for a standard release, that is, if you already have somewhat of a significant fanbase / signed to a label. I think a handsome majority of people here are looking for tips to cultivate and develop that fanbase so that they *can* reach that point of good, consistent, release momentum and trajectory thru these strategies. Nonetheless I love what you guys are doing. Cheers!

      @@mcresolutionftw709 just do exactly what she said but be mindful with what media you are reaching out if you are purely up and coming reach out to peers, i.e. emerging PR people, online radio, playlist curators. A loyal fan-base is built-up on consistency and, nowadays, on the basis she just mentioned. Make a sketch of the forecasted target-audience as well, so you can reach out media for your promotion which caters to your potential fan-base. Don't turn up any chance of exposition as they might happen to be detrimental in further your career. What she said is the core of a development career artist in terms of promotion, and any product promotion is carried out, more or less, in this way. Accept the fact that your music is an asset with an attached exploitable IP.

      There’s really no sure fire formula unfortunately
      This is all still great advice, but I think you have to start relationally
      Make contacts, have real relationships with KRY people that help you, and who you help in return
      It’s all about who you know, because you’re all on the journey together
      Many famous musicians were friends that knew each other before the made it
      Like temple of the dog had Eddie bedder and Chris Cornell
      Or Coldplay and keane were all buds who had auditioned for each other’s bands long before any record deals were signed
      Maynard James Keenan was buds with Rage against the machine before they ever broke out onto the scene
      The point is, are you connected with or are you creating your own musics community and movement?

I somehow fought hard enough to get those out and still release the 200 I managed to mix of 800+ still in store. I have 207 subs, but 600+ monthly listeners on Spotify .. have no idea where they came from, and here I am watching this sweet video just to be "one of you guys" :-)

    I am sending my first song around locally before it is actually released and the feedback has been amazing. I’m the feature on the track, but people have been coming back for my part.
    I got different age groups and races and genders loving the song so far. And it has been shared from Texas, where I reside, to Atlanta, Seattle, Tennessee, just to name a few.
    I’ve gotten questions about when it releases on iTunes for purchase.
    I’ve played the song for people in bars and grocery stores WITHOUT telling them who it was for a less biased opinion. I played it in my car when at drivethrus and had people dancing to the song before I told them who it was.
    When the song releases, I’m hoping those people will visit the official release.
    So my tip to you is to work hard on one song. Share it locally. If you think it sounds great, get opinions.
    But the greatest tip of all is to listen to yourself in the end.

I don't know where my music is going to go, but I do know that I'm putting my music on Spotify sometime later, so thanks for the video tip. It was very helpful.

  • @shawnhutchings5931

    I watch quite a few of these videos recently and I find it quite interesting that so much attention is put into these steps. However, I never see anyone talking about the most important step before ever considering releasing anything and that’s copyrighting your material.
    This actually takes much more time then you think to do it correctly.
    With most of the crap I’m unfortunate enough to hear being produced these days, it’s most likely not worth stealing.
    So, keep settling for your .004 cents a stream and keep feeding the beast.

    I used to play in a band. When we released our first album we had a fairly good following but the release didn't extend any further than those who already followed us which kinda got me down. Then I found out about PR. If you want your release to be featured in blogs, online magazines, talked about by influencers, reviewed, etc, then you need some form of PR behind the release.
    For our releases from then on we always sought out a PR company to work with us to get a campaign together. Some were more successful than others. But it's how we got into those magazines etc.
    Now this was almost 10 years ago, times have changed where hustling to create your own PR is relatively achievable.
    My advice (as well as following this video) is once you're release is ready, hustle to get as much PR as possible! :) If you know anyone who can do PR then get to know them and get them to help.
    Awesome video btw!

      What is a PR? I’ve never heard of that before. That sounds like a great idea to try out.

    • @AugustRadioProject
      @AugustRadioProject 3 роки тому +1

      @@iamsethreins PR stands for Public Relations but it's essentially everything to do with media. The reason anything ends up on the news, in a magazine, on a blog, talked about by an influencer, etc. It's almost always going to be because a PR company (or PR department of a bigger company i.e. a record label) has managed to get it to the right person.
      Record Labels have their own PR departments who will have a bunch of contacts to ensure that the artists who release through them get talked about by the right people. There are separate PR companies who aren't part of a record label who specialise in music PR specifically.
      The most important thing to note is that if you want your music to be talked about in media (on the radio, tv, reviewed in magazines, talked about by 'alt press', 'kerrang', 'nme' or 'rocksound', etc) then you need someone with the contacts for those places to make that happen. A PR company will offer you that. Just be careful, some of them will promise you all that but won't deliver.

      they are really easy actually, but this is not the steps to blowing up. i mean.. there is soundcloud artist blowing up on one trash track now days, its all about that accidental viral hit.. and after that its persistence. its simple to do, maintaining it on a daily is the rough part, esp as an artist with no management.

    • @phantomlegion4522
      @phantomlegion4522 5 років тому +5

      @@WhoIsJidol There is no such thing as an accentual hit . What she is saying in the video is for people who have spent years on developing their songs and have a real product that has been recording in a professional studio and is radio quality . A radio station wont play something unless it can hold up to stuff like the Trews Faun ect . She is also leaving out some information . There are other things one needs to do before even thinking about putting a work out . Without doing those things first no one will play what you have or if they do you wont collect any royalties .
