VIA : NEBA

****REPOST****

A short pet peeve that should be used as a "helpful hint"...I regularly (i.e., daily) get requests from artists to submit material to me for various reasons (in most cases they are looking for someone to "shop" them), and those submissions are still commonly in CD form (which being somewhat of a traditionalist, I prefer getting so that I can actually get a "feel" for the product and glean what I can from the visual elements). Like many, I am a "load and go" guy...I insert the CD into my computer, upload it to my iTunes library and have it available to listen to on my cloud when I get a free moment. I am still amazed that I often insert a CD into my PC and none of the track names/artist names appear in the iTunes menu (meaning I have a ton of tracks listed in my library as Track # by Unknown). It drives me a little nuts that artists don't take the time to upload the necessary meta-data to Gracenote so that their material doesn't get lost somewhere in industry folks' "Unknown" library void. Don't let that happen...it takes very little time to do what has to be considered a "basic" step. Thanks Tony Timpano

VIA: NEBA  New England's Best Artists

41 minutes ago · 

• I received a message from an artist from New Jersey thanking me for posting information about a music conference. He found a manager, producer and connected with a few A&Rs. He added these contacts on twitter and made more contacts. He spend $55 dollars for the conference. Less than a night at the club. I know several artists who paid 200+ for a TV contest that never aired or a slot on a "mixtape to the labels." I wonder which was the SMARTER investment?

Tip of the Day: Most people discover music by video (17%) so have a YouTube account with good video content! If a potential fan discovers your music on a blog (6%) and likes your music, he wants to share it on Facebook (12%) or twitter (4%) with his friends and family (12%). Putting together a blog campaign and having a YouTube account with good content addresses how 54% of people discover new music.   -NEBA

Amen Solizs, It's enough to break one's spirit, But They Goodness we have others out there to cheer us on to keep us motivated instead of knocking us for even trying.  One thing I'll never regret is having the courage to go for it no matter what happens, doing it from the heart is how God Rewards me, nevermind the haters or obstacles.  Faith wins all the time.  God sens us the right people in our lives and cleans house for us if we let him, changes can be painful, n frightening... but they always mean something new is coming.  We just gotta believe God is doiung what's best for us.  You are so right about Poze..  Having the internet is such a great thing today for musicians and I truly believe they should take advantage of everything it has to offer.  Poze is one offer I was not expecting and am so grateful for.  Much Love Solizs! GM :) XOXOXO My Friend!
