Music has becoming more and more business than talent for some which is not such a bad thing as long as you keep it real on both the music and business side. I always tell people to think of their music career as a job the same effort and dedication you put in your full or part-time job, you should put in your music career as well.Saturday, March 5, 2011
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO GET YOUR MUSIC OUT THERE
Music has becoming more and more business than talent for some which is not such a bad thing as long as you keep it real on both the music and business side. I always tell people to think of their music career as a job the same effort and dedication you put in your full or part-time job, you should put in your music career as well.
WHAT DOES A&R STANDS FOR
Artist & Repertoire. The term was coined to describe the function of people at record labels who are in charge of finding and developing new talent.Development typically includes finding the right material for the artist to perform if they don’t write their own songs, hooking them up with the right producer, engineer, studio, etc., deciding which of their songs are the most viable, and shepherding the making of the record.
After the record is done, it’s not unusual for the A&R person to be responsible for getting the other departments such as retail sales and radio promotion excited about the record so that they do their jobs well. If all the parts of the record company “machine” work well together, the act just might have a hit
