This Chica Needs Help...Seriously

Yeah I've "solo-ed" with orchestras, won my share of competitions, and performed in numerous recitals; but it still seems like no one pays any attention to my instrument when a face isn't behind it. It's incredibly depressing that ppl continue to attribute the cello to classical music, and fail to remember its presence in other genres as well. Pray tell me, how the hell am I supposed to market/promote myself??? I want to find a home as a cellist in the electronic circuit...but it seems to be dead!!!! Do any of you even know what I play?

This is my sh*tty-ass website...complete with useless pics:
www.myspace.com/carecello


PlZ...I'm at a loss for inspiration!!!

You already posted this and the thread turned into shit.

Yeah well I didn't receive any helpful responses...I was hoping someone new might read it

No not at all...especially the electric version.

maybe give samim a call, see if he can cook up another hit.

or just skip that and start making tracks on your own..

the 8th note should be a piece of cake.

There is no "h" in the word, even though it has an "h" sound

yeah whats up with that? I hate english

have you tried promoting yourself at all? sending stuff out to A&R companies and stuff like that? get a hold of contact information of some artists you like that may be interested in that sound and send them some material. that sounds like a good place to start.

The Cello will really only fit with Downtempo, Chillout and Ambient music. The chances of you finding any sort of "success" in "mainstream" EDM (see: House, Trance, etc.) are slim to none. Not going to happen.

you can play my cello anytime baby

Come on...I was really hoping for semi serious responses :P

I was being completely serious with my second response. Search out those genres and various artists that interest you in them. House and Trance aren't exactly made for Cellos. You'll find yourself far more fitting in what I've already mentioned.

i'd hit it.
cello or no cello...

you deserve a second thread do you, you self-important narcissistic whore?

ive already said, if youre not writing your own stuff youre nobody.

Start playing in the nude and post that shit on your web site. That is the gimmick you need to get noticed.
