Thank you so much for this! It’s changed my entire perspective on how to make music! And it’s also helped me break down road blocks I’ve placed in my own way as a musician. I’ve been binge watching everything and I’m gonna start with this strategy and see what happens! I might even blog about the process! Thank you 🙏🏾
Feel like this is an open mic approach to releasing studio music. If more people could play an instrument they could practice songs in front of a live audience EVERY WEEK. Write a new song every week and then take the best songs to the studio.
currently running out of angles to film in my house, think i might have to buy a barn! I post about a song a week, right now, catching up on making videos for them all. What are your thoughts on posting the song on streaming platforms and video on youtube at the same time? Instead of trying to build tension by dropping one before the other?
Love everything you are doing and love the advice, especially from someone who has tried, tested and is living his there own advice! You have been a godsend! been doing my music for many years as a one man metal band and recently got back on the horse. It is SOOOO! true in what advice you give, the music does not really matter on social media, and being to salesy dosent work and telling people to check you out. As you pointed out NO ONE wants things shoved in there faces. THANK YOU! for being able to change my mindset and making promotion of my brand and music SOOO much easier to make content now. The ways you advised have actually sparked NEW creativity for myself and would 100% say this would do for EVERYONE! Stay safe, Stay well, and stay Nic D. Truly Truly AWESOME! Rooting for you all the way! Gary KRANIUS
Need to start daily. I’ve been making music for over 10 years, I remember releasing mixtapes on datpiff and SoundCloud when those were the incumbent platforms in the space. Converting my strategy to creating content has been difficult, but fun to say the least. I’m about to turn 29 years old and I can’t imagine spending my life doing anything other than making music. Like these with success like yours believe I’m just a video away. Thank you for the support and motivation.
Finding your content has really helped me. My mindset is different now. I’m putting out more music than I ever have before. Growth is happening slower than I like. But people are starting to notice what I’m doing.
Imagine all artists from India who are missing out on promoting their works on tiktok bcoz it has been banned! And i tried vpn but was unsuccessful to use TT from india. Do you guys have any alternate ideas to use it?
A song should be as long as is necessary for that song. There's some sub-2min songs I love. I will say though, a good bridge is sooo underrated these days.
To be honest, I know you from the FRDi show clips I've been watching on instagram for the last year. They're good for a chuckle. Just found out you're an independent artist like two weeks ago when the YT gods recommended an interview you did and wtf??
