I guess Soundcloud is fine. As long as it’s an easy to use platform where they can listen online, most platforms will work. On the other hand, Artlist is actually a library. I wouldn’t send a submission that has a link from a competitor, that’s bad taste imo.
Oh I see, so they group all the catalogs they have deals with in “the servers”. To be in “the servers” you have to get into a library that has deals with such networks in the first place
Hi dachtyl, could you elaborate on what “The Servers” are? Is there such a thing? I thought cable networks and agencies had access to whatever library they had a deal with.
Shotgun as many non-ex libraries you can with a large and diverse music catalog
WHAT?
Unless you are writing for a brief, there is room for everything. If you would like specific genres in demand for the RF market, I could say Hip Hop beats with uplifting and energetic vibes, or any sort of electronic music with a modern sound. Also Indie Rock, like the stomp clap stuff, or epic orchestral tracks. I see that energetic and happy music is sold more than dramatic or sad music (in the RF world).
The best thing you can do to see what genres are in demand is watching ads or tv shows and listening to best selling tracks on libraries.
Watch to ads or tv shows and compose tracks that sound similar
I’m a non US BMI composer and I use the US bank account Payoneer provides. You can set that up as direct deposit. Works great. Payment came the same day as the statement.
Pond5 benefits from accurate metadata. It’s a huge market
Hi
When I started, I used to work as a hard as I could to upload everywhere. It’s the only way you can know which one is working for you.
Now I’m uploading only to the ones where I make sales, which is 4 or 5.
You welcome!
Don’t say no, just have another set of tracks in case the previous ones are taken. Explain that to them and send the new tracks. You have to keep moving as said before.
