As a beatmaker/producer with currently no fame, does it make sense to collect like 4 or 5 beats and release them as an instrumental EP in order to get more exposure, or will it even make a difference?
What is the purpose of an instrumental EP? How useful are they?
1. Are there really producers out there who are trying to, like... "sell copies" of just straight up beats on iTunes as if they're albums or something? Beats aren't nearly as marketable or attractive as complete songs...
2. Or is the whole EP idea is just an "imaginary secondary name" for a group of beats to give them more of a presence and better marketing for sales/leasing?
I'm starting to collect beats and I'm wondering if I should just continue to release them 1 by 1, or instead put them all up at once like a big bang?
