The author of any work of art, in particular a musical one, having gained experience in the chosen type of creativity, begins to look for connoisseurs of his talent. Friends and relatives are the first on the list of fans, and then the circle can expand indefinitely. A number of resources allow authors to put musical works out to a wide audience. You just have to choose whether you are going to receive money for listening to music on the site.
Instructions
Step 1
Russian-language resources, as a rule, imply free distribution of music. We have copyright de jure, but not de facto, and at the initial stages it is generally better to give material for review free of charge. Nobody wants to buy a pig in a poke, and an unknown musician is such a cat.
In terms of such a PR move, the resource will greatly help you www.realmusic.ru. Register on it, upload your photo. Having entered the profile page, click the "Add a team" button. Fill in information about him (style, members, title, contact person, other members, contacts). Save your details and go to the team management page. Select the "Manage Tracks" command to add new compositions, then the "Load New Track" command. On the next page, select a file from your computer, taking into account the site's requirements (size and format)
Step 2
English site www.myspace.com allows not only distributing music for free, but also selling tracks. Register there as a musician (this social network is popular among mere mortals, including your future listeners). In the profile information, indicate the style in which you play to make it easier for other users to find your works. Then follow the link "My data", enter the menu "My songs" and click the command "Send". Under the phrase "My songs" find the command "Add songs", then click on the empty field and select the tracks from your computer. Please note the size and format limitations
The site is registered in the United States, so copyrights are protected there more carefully. But in order to interest English-speaking listeners, you must write either instrumental music that can be understood by a native speaker of any language, or with English text.
Step 3
www.lastfm.com is a resource for both beginners and well-known performers, where you can listen to music, for the most part, for a fee
After registering on the site, scroll down the page and click the "Artists" link if you want to upload your music. Next, in the "Artist or group" field, enter the name, confirm. Enter the data about the band or artist and the currency in which you want to receive payment for listening to the tracks. Next, the payment method, confirm your choice, and an agreement in English will appear on a new page. If you don’t know the language yourself, ask someone to translate, this information may be useful to you. Confirm your agreement with the terms of the agreement and go to the music download page.
