  1. My name is Mariana and I am a brand manager and music supervisor that works only with indie artists. I would love to hear your music so hit me up! I will post stuff more than anything on a marketing perspective. Likewise, if you need an opinion on your brand lemme know 🤙🤘
  2. Hi Everyone, I am new here on this forum. I am working on a project called Volareo. We make a blockchain connected smart speaker, the worlds first. However, I am not here to sell it (although I would appreciate it if you signed up to keep up on our progress ). Actually, it isn't even a real thing yet! I am here to ask you a question. Blockchain services like Musicoin have been experimenting with tipping as an extra way to earn revenue for musicians. We believe however, that simply having the option to tip is not enough. You need to incentivise your listeners to it. Thus we are trying to think of ways to give back to tippers and give them a reason to tip. WE don't want to do empty promising so we want to know what musicians actually would be willing to do. Therefor, the question is; What would you do for someone who tipped you? Some ideas we already had are: Special releases (longer versions jam sessions you name it), Q&A with top monthly tippers, podcasts for top tippers. etc etc. you name it! Please let me know what your ideas are on the whole matter. I am super interested in your opinion! Tom
  3. "Hey, can you come play my party for free beer?!" "If you come play guitar for me for $50 this time there will be more gigs to follow!" "Do you have some unlicensed or royalty free music I can use for my video?" "I can pay you in (insert social media platform) more followers if you do this for me." Knowing one's value or worth is the best advice I could ever give anybody wanting to jump in this crazy music industry...OK, the end!! Whew, thank goodness you don't have to read anymore! Seems so simple, right? Monetarily speaking, knowing your worth can be an incredible advantage to your career, or not knowing what your "product's" value is can be a horrible disservice to you and your fellow colleagues. This is what I mean. What we do in the music industry whether it be a song writer, jingle composer, player, artist, manager, booking agent, etc. is entirely different than any corporate structure set in any other genre of business. There is no infrastructure to evaluate how much you should be making on a global scale. There isn't a chart on the internet to tell you how much you should be making. That certainly would make it a lot easier. From what I've learned, culture and the city you live in seem to set a standard. Granted I can only speak as an American understanding the evaluation process in music. Los Angles, New York, and Nashville are what I call the big 3. From there I would say the next tier cities could be an Austin, Texas or a New Orleans, Louisiana for example. But the big three usually set the trends in the largest commercialized music markets (Pop, Rock, and Country). They also have more opportunities in all areas of music as well. How much should I charge for my services? It all depends on your culture, city, and what will you gain out of it. In Nashville, a guitar player hired to play some songs have a pretty standard base rate of a local show getting paid $150 and if there is travel involved no less than $200. But I've excepted gigs for a lot less. Even $50! In corporate business suit and tie world they would ridicule you for taking a 75% cut. I don't blame them. Let that percentage sink in. I didn't know what I was doing was undermining a system that would devalue and under appreciate a player that would be well deserved of a base pay of $150. Integrity in the market place is a concept that , in monetary terms, people will know what to expect. Consistency if you will and it even sets a bar predicated to a system that can establish tiers. For example, do those local shows for $150 and when you have the street credit eventually you can make the jump up to $200, then $225, and then so on, and so on!!! Your culture may have something set in place. Maybe? Maybe not? Isn't it funny? Do you ever wonder if somebody slapped a sign on your back that says "will work for free" instead of "kick me!" Know your worth. Set a standard. Educate yourself from other musicians/writers/engineers/blah/blah/ bah. Let those that have walked that path mentor you. Help your community by establishing that your vocation as a creative is important to be worth given money. I had a coffee with a friend when I first started traveling to Nashville. I expressed that I didn't know my value or even when should I take a gig. I still use this rule to this day and I absolutely love it, and I think it applies here. After he mentioned base rates in Nashville he ended the subject by saying, "Two out of three ain't bad." 1. Is the money good? 2. Do you like the music? 3. Are they good people or are they fun to hang out with? "If you can say yes to at least two of those...two out of three ain't bad."
  4. Interesting trailer for an upcoming documentary - 'Unsound' - on the music business in the digital age. Donna
  5. First of all there is 1 or 2 I know that I am certain to be decent. BUT I am curious as to weather this is something lots of you have come across. So far, (baring in mind I have only been gigging for a year), the majority of "promoters" I have met do nothing in the way of "promoting" but are only interested in filling a slot that they have to fill and I am left to fill the seats myself, even if it is a place that I know nobody; which is not what I signed up for. Another thing I have come across is lots of offers such as "Oh yes we will get you playing at this festival... this gig" or just promising something that it seems they make no effort to actually make happen. Wondered what your similar experiences were? Also if there was any tips on how to know if a promoter is genuine or not? Questions to ask them? I don't want to have to say no to everything just in case! Josie
