Hi all,
I came across an idea over the Xmas period. I have successfully ran my own record label releasing house music over the last two years, but also building a decent set of contacts including many other record label owners/A&R managers.
One thing that I have always found really annoying is that people submit demos in a genre which is completely different to that of the record label (also, some are just absolute sh*te!).
My idea then...to set up a platform which allows DJ's to upload their demo, providing they can confirm certain criteria, to ensure the demo is of a good standard. Once the demo has been uploaded, it will be assigned specific 'tags' to categorise genre etc - and then sent out to record labels where an introducer fee would be charged if they sign the track. This is something I would definitely use as a label owner if it meant that I wouldn't receive sub-par demos.
DJ's/Producers - would you use this service/be willing to pay a small subscription to have access to this service? Interested to get people's opinions on this
Thanks
