I would love to hear your story about getting your fist track released by a label. What steps did you take?
How long have you been producing? Did you know someone that knew someone? Where is it being sold?
I have been producing electronic music for a few years, and havent had any success getting any releases.
Not that i have tryed to shop my stuff around much.
I guess in some way im looking for a bit of inspiration. So i would love to hear your story. |
I sent my tracks to labels through digital means. i've been producing for around 5 years. It took 2 years to get something signed, and hadn't made anything for about 2-3 years until I had 2 songs released late last year with another ep w/2 songs between now and later. Last year was when I was starting to "get it" and that was when I started to develop my sound, which is still a work in progress and I find that to be the hardest part for me right now.
When I started out, I didn't know many people who liked electronic music. I was also the only person I knew who did this type of stuff. That said, if you got hot stuff, don't be a stranger in your local scene. Network with people, because a lot of getting signed is about the name game too, you'll get further if you want to get heard if you network.
