You are better off aligning yourself with up and comers and indie labels. You will get nothing but problems out of Sony and the like. Something like this should be used to push culture, not aid the current machine which attempts to stomp out culture.

You can only do that once u have the proper network, the problem with indie labels is everyone at the label is on 2 different pages. I have yet to run across 1 indie label where everyone the artist & the business/legal affairs if you will, are on the same page.

And know one knows a lick about marketing a product, and we all know when u don't know anything about marketing everything sounds & looks like rocket science. If i find the right situation ill work with a indie with no problem but right now I haven't found one yet.
 
Not sure if its relevant or helpful - im a full time club DJ in the UK with a reasonable rep. If you get an artist with a decent bar/club playable tune hit me up, i should be able to get it played in some big venues in most areas of the UK.
 
Im not cool enough to PM yet but I am cool enough to be the Buddhist Rapper (sounds like a joke but Im serious). you can google "a cultivator buddhist rapper" Thanks!

samething as digicards cost $100 bucks for 1000 download cards but u figure if u spend $4950.00 and get 50k cards sell a album for $5.99 and move them in a month or so the ROI is $300k. Well $299,500 to be exact, of course u will need money for marketing and promo but the good part about it is this...u don't have to worry about trying to get your CD's in stores etc.

So today is a special day for me, I got my 1st check cut from a record label nothing ground breaking for me since i do cpa, domain parking etc it's really not about the money per say it's about reaching a goal i set out to reach. So I'll be doing marketing and promo for a major artist on a major label so well see how this goes.
 
hey, count me in.I'm producer/songwriter/performer (yeah in Bulgaria you must be one man army)and the genres i mainly work are R&B,Pop,Hiphop.You can find me on skype if you think i'm okay :)

+rep for making this thread.

Most of the JVs on BHW involve like 2-3 people. Just think of what even a well organized 10+ JV could do... so many of the biggest online businesses in the world have less than 10 employees.

I think the main reason we don't do larger JVs is because it's so hard to even trust 1 person with your money and effort.
 
Definitely an interesting proposal at the very least. Music is something that is close to my heart.

I've been DJing for years and I do write/produce a bit in my spare time / as a hobby. Not saying I'm amazing, or that I'm going to knock out this years Ibiza Anthem, but I'd be interested in remixing/reworking whatever the final piece is, reward or not. Compared with IM, my skill set lies with music/audio.

Please hit me up if you feel I could be of use. I can fire over a link to my soundcloud too if you want (Not wanting to post it here tbh, promotion is not why I'm posting).

Either way, all the best with this! I'll be watching this thread! :)
 
Go and sign Stacie Orrico I heard she is unsigned at the moment, plus she is talented and I would totally do her (and then some)
 
GG its so weird how people meet. First I wanna say congrats on your successful life you have so far. I think I can go as far as to say congrats on your promotion of that artist whos label cut the check to you. I think I know who he is cause his latest mixtape was a sensation in no less then three days (over 2 mil downloads lol).

If this gets your attention anytime soon, I would love for you to see my point of view of some great things. Certainly, you have notice the latest trend in artists becoming more talented in order to separate from the pack. Still its not as diversed as it should be. I have witnessed artist that are talent singers who can produce their own music and record it up to industry standards. Still they might never get noticed cause they lack the most fundamental part of the music business,"proper promotion". I also fall in this category and probably at the top. Even though I produce on a professional level (formerly for interscope), I've never received the promotion it would take to be visible to a accepting audience.

FIRST OF ALL, don't think I am trying to freeload or make a pitch to you because I am established behind the scenes. DJ Kid Capri is a business partner of mine, which help me connect with a lot of people from his tv show (Just Blaze, Amber Rose, Dorrough, 2 Live Crew).

BASICALLY, I feel that I could be a major asset to you, and twice over vice versa. I produce, write, engineer, promote, tour, etc... That's just the tip. While I was in the U.S. Navy, I was a certified photographer, journalist, and also had training in shooting videos. Thing is that's too many hats for one person so when it came to my projects I wanted to outsource and just play the executive role.

I realized that I had to plan it differently for my NEW project and came up with a solid model. All of the things I did were practice for this business model. Now I have a specific goal, not just to be on any label but the one that fits me best Maybach Music Group. The project would only be to garnish their attention leading to deal talks. Just like all the IMs here try to find niches, I did the same lol. I fit the style of artists they acquire, produce that genre of music easily, and wouldn't be a risk to them.

Blah Blah Blah, I could go on and on but ultimately I just want to squeeze a pm with you some time and if I'm lucky, a Skype chat or so lol. They have people that try to lie to make themselves look better but I put this on my BH membership, I'm not one of them. That's why I say with confidence, with proper promotion I could be the top All around Artist to have ever made it. I would love to have a chance to connect with you and provide proof.

Fellow Blackhatters, let me shoot down the negativity before it comes. Yes I know I could just go to a a&r at interscope and pay them to set up a meeting with anyone. I think everyone also knows this game pays pennies to a lot of people. Take it from me, the best way for me to get my goals was to discover BHW, start making x,xxx a day, put together a 60,000 budget and pay the best IMs to market my new mixtape/videos this summer. I refuse to let paper pushers stand in the way of something I have dreamed about since I was singing in church choir at 6 yrs old. With that said, anyone willing to do business, pm me rather than take time out your day to try and poke holes in my thought pattern lol!
 
Hey Goblin, your PM mailbox is full. Could you PM me your Skype username? I'm a full-time electronic music production student and I'd like to get involved with this project.

All good bro, i don't personally think your pitching me anything, the more people with connects the better. I work with everyone cause networking is essential it's good that u paid attention to the mixtape scene, that was my doing HAHA! that artist has a nice buzz now I can't mention names considering i signed a NDA but the label love the work and I have built a good relationship with them even the general manager at the label. I also work with another Major label outside of artist promo so things is looking good shoot me your skype ID like i said, when i started this thread i had a idea and wanted to see if i could make something happen and its going good.

Hey Goblin, big congrats! This is an interesting thread. I am independent but I produce for Universal here and there and also produce for independent artists(who tend to be bigger than the major label ones). I was thinking about some blackhat methods and how they could give an artist a leg up. The main problem today is there is so much noise with thousands of releases being pumped out every day. You really need a way to cut through the noise and i'm sure this is an awesome breeding ground for such ideas. I have certainly gained a few techniques.

I would love to talk to you Golblin but I can't send pm's. Maybe send your skype / email and i'll send you a message.
Congrats :)

Totally agree with you, on that bro...music business is so different nowadays especially with there releases i mean they release so many damn songs all at once i be like jeeuz know wonder can fully brand themselves there's no room for consumers to digest the first single a artist released but yea bro shoot me your skype ID this business all about networking im sure u already know that ...luv to chop it up see what we can do.

yea ok...SMH

And you signed a NDA for marketing of a artist? You working for the government?
If you work for a label they will give you a work email like whats yours?
So a major artist needs marketing and web work now? So a major label billion dollar company will hire a nobody guy such as us to do a major artist work but if its a major artist then why would he need marketing by somebody of our caliber?
They will risk a chance with a nobody doing work for one of their major artist?

I find this story totally false. Sell your dreams elsewhere
