Music Industry’s Post

It's OK as a music producer to make a range of music as you shouldn't stifle your creativity. However, when it comes to establishing yourself and building a profile you need a consistent sound/style for the market to connect with your music. I see too many artists releasing everything as they go along and then wonder why their bigger label goals are passing on their music, it's because your message and brand are all over the place. Once you build a solid foundation in terms of building a fanbase and brand identity, this is a signal you have gained fans' trust. This is the point at which you can experiment or launch other aliases, as you have a fully engaged audience. Also in the short term, it gives you a clearer focus on where to channel your energy with your music career. If you're trying to establish yourself in a particular genre, the sharpened focus will see your progression accelerate quicker than if you're sending all sorts of music to different labels in different markets. #musicindustry #musicbusiness #branding #artistdevelopment #musicproduction

The music business can feel ultra-competitive, because it is. The ‘music industry’ is designed to make artists compete with one another. The charts - still a central obsession for major label marketers, is a league table - a pure competition. Getting onto a playlist is a competition. The fact that everyone would like TikTok virality but so few achieve it, makes that a competition also. To an artist it can feel like every song they put out is simply an entry ticket into yet another competition where the prize is some kind of established music industry marker. Then what? The thing with competitions is that the vast majority of entrants are set up to fail. So, if you don’t make the charts, or get on a playlist with your latest release, or get an award nomination this year, you have de facto, ‘failed’. Setting goals in this environment seems futile and yet any artist needs to understand their own definition of success. How will you know what you create is good enough? The competitive music industry can make many great artists feel like they are not as good as they actually are. My suggestion is to focus on building your own Quiet Legend. There has been a theme to this 8th season of The Art of Longevity podcast, which is artists who have built their own Quiet Legend. It allows artists to run alongside the competitive river flow, and dip in and out, but always focus on foundational career building.
