This is the problem: a dilemma between making music and promoting music.
As an independent artist (for the moment), I’m using Internet possibilities to promote my music. But it’s becoming difficult to follow.
I am registered in various well-known music related websites like Uber, Myspace, Ourstage, Sellaband, We7, LastFM, Reverbnation, …
It’s been great creating all those sites. It had bring me a lot of listeners and fans. I’m amazed by all the kind comments I receive. As an amateur graphics designer and photograph, I had always tried to make all my own material (my homepage layout took me more than 40 hours of work).
This is the problem: it’s time consuming! While I’m doing this, I don’t write music anymore.
I’m normally a prolific artist. I have more than 100 tunes already written and recorded. I’m actually composing two new albums projects (almost finished). There are three music videos in preparations by different directors. A show is entering pre-production for the end of the year in Brussels, with amazing lights and live videos in a theatrical performance style. As you can see, I’m already busy focusing on music and there’s only 24 hours in a day.
How you can help out? By becoming my Internet Manager. You’ll be in charge of maintaining all websites up-to-date, adding graphics, create new ones, contacting fans and finding new listeners, creating an e-team, seeking new opportunities of promotion, finding the best places on the net to suit my music.
I’m seeking a music lover with technical and graphic web skills, communication powers and some music business knowledge. If you’re beginning in artist management, this could be a great start. I’ve been in the business for 20 years now and maybe you could learn one or two things from me.
As there’s no money for the moment, you will not be remunerated now, but as soon as money come, you’ll surely have your part.
Interested? If you think you fit this profile, contact me. I’m already impatiently waiting for your help. Together, we’ll make a team and we’ll reach the top!
