All aspiring musicians and composers dream that as many people as possible hear their works. In addition, the financial issue is also important here: selling your own compositions can be a profitable business. You just need to sign a contract with one of the label issuing companies.
Instructions
Step 1
Think first of all how high-quality the music you create is. Signing a contract with a publisher is a very demanding business, and it is unlikely that serious music labels will pay attention to compositions with mediocre performance. Stay tuned for new releases in the genre of the music you create, and pay attention to the current trends in it, what sound is considered popular, and try to write compositions in a similar style.
Step 2
Pay attention to what features and distinctive features your music has. Many labels put emphasis on the uniqueness and non-standard sound of the compositions. Experiment more and add something unique to your music: new instruments, effects, vocal inserts, etc.
Step 3
Start choosing the right label after you are confident that your tracks are worthy of attention. There are many music producing companies that specialize in different genres of music. For example, in the house genre, famous labels are Ministry Sounds, Hed Kandi, Axtone; in the trance genre - Armada Music, Anjunabeats, Enhanced; in the drum and bass genre - Hospital, Fokuz, Renegade Hardware and others. They only sign contracts with the best of musicians. There are a lot of smaller labels. You can find out more about them in electronic music stores: beatport.com, audiojelly.com, junodownload.com and others.
Step 4
Submit your tracks to your chosen label or several at once to increase the chances of success. To do this, visit the websites of the selected companies. Each of them has a special Send Demo section, which describes in detail how to send your work. Most often this is done via e-mail or directly from sites through special terminals.
Step 5
Wait a while after sending tracks. If your work is of interest to the label's management, then you will be contacted and offered to sign a contract for the publication of the work. If this did not happen, do not despair and do not give up. Keep making music, improve the quality and submit it to labels.
