Tough decision.
But I think Music Producers Promotion would be better. amateur isn't necessary.

Whatever the decision is, don't make two forums. Two forums would just create more peoblems imo.

I got it! what about:

Unsigned Trance Producers Promotion

Agreed. It should be one way or the other. But I think the "amateur" should stay for the reasons I mentioned above.

I think people are looking at the word Amateur as a negative one, because it somehow suggests bad quality. This isn't the case though. Think of the best producers you know, when they made that first killer track they were amateurs too

I voted 'NO' because there is a mix of productions (amatuer, advanced, professional)in here, but 'Amateur' is inviting for new producers. Plus I don't judge anything that is amatuer as a bad thing. We are here to help each other, and it doesn't matter whether you are pro or amatuer or beginner. It's about the music, and the name of the forum is not gonna reflect or influence my opinions on the people, and most importantly, the music that they create in here.

Oh, and to get technical, someone can have a professional quality production, but not be professional. You have to get paid or signed for the track in order to be professional. My two cents.

I think "amateur" is great, it still gives more advanced users a change to give tips to producers with less experience. This way there's more discussion and value for producers area.

these are discussions that go forever ................& beyond blah.

Ive been playing musical instruments all my life & have thousands & thousands of years worth of experience. With all this musical knowledge stored in my cranium I only have one very important thing to add to this discussion: & that thing is persistance! I am persistantly dribbling crap. I am the musical wizard of crapology! Crap crap crap. & my point is crap. & then crap is all crap something crap. I think ive reached my pointless!

Yes, the word amateur should be removed.

This forum includes productions from all experience levels, not just an amateur level. In the end what makes a producer no longer an amateur, a signed release, and then they all of sudden become a pro! Music is a domaine where people always learn something new all the time. This forum is a great place for producers of all levels to give each other advice and learn from one another.

Trance.nu came with a good title of "artist promotion", but I also put my vote for "music producer promotion" or just simply "producer promotion".

true that. but i got another take ...

Anyone can make music. A musicial produces music
A Pro producer is someone who is in the career of producing & know his tool of the trade like the back of his hand. It takes a little bit of time to learn programs such as propellerhead Reason & Cubase. An amature may be someone just starting out with demos of these programs or generic versions, & hasn't quite become 'one' with the program yet. grasshopper.

Its a bit like porn. You got amatures that can make porn in their back yards & then you got the pros that do it in the studio. much of a muchness. grasshopper. When someone says 'amature' i think of a handheld footage of a virgin babe getting a rogering. Pro or not, its still good - the music that is. Unless they are a dead knock. then it is just boring. grasshopper.
