Being An Independent Musician: You Will Obtain Control And You Can Monitor The Distribution Of Your Music
By extra. Filed in Art & Photography |
If you want to get a contract with a regular record label then you will not be in control of how your music is distributed. When you are an independent musician you will control this, and this is what you want. IMRadio is an online radio station that allows you to upload songs, and music videos to be heard on the Internet by users. They can listen and decide if they like your stuff or not.
It can be any type of audio, it doesn’t have to be just music alone. So if you are a poet, a comedians or a group of comedians, even someone gifted at the spoken word, you now have a platform. And with Imradio you will control your music and not the record labels. Here are some of the advantages for you to have this control.
People will directly buy the music from you and not from anywhere else. Other ways of acquiring your music is if you authorize it to be sold by other online media or offline. People will expect for more if they like your music after hearing it or watching your videos. You can sell your music to whoever you want to sell it and the only way it can be resold if you permit it. Independent musicians who have their own cds made will be able to control what platforms they are sold on.
You will make much more money by controlling the way your music is distributed. In the offline world you are only paid pennies for each record you sell, and this is not a good thing. You get very little money per sale of your music when you deal with record companies. But you will still earn more even if you sell a few if you are an independent musician. IMRadio can boost your career as a recording artist to the next level. Online radio stations give you the capability to gain exposure, which you did not experience in the past.
You can offer whatever tracks people want when they purchase your music. If you were with an offline record company they would determine what tracks got put onto your CD and what tracks did not. They will not include all songs you want to be heard when dealing with record companies. They decide on what to take and feel are the best, which limits you as an artist. With an Internet radio station you will control what tracks get heard and when they get heard. Based on the kind of artist you are, you will be able to establish brand awareness for yourself.
You can offer bonus material to people who have showed themselves to be good customers. A bonus album comes out but is sold separately or as a B-side of tracks in the offline world. You can reward those deserving people who have been good customers with additional material from you. With internet radio as your platform for people to learn about you, you will be able to do this. And you can avoid having some record label give them your material. You can control all of this, and when you do you will not be dependent on the music industry big boys liking you.
