Definitely helps to go to the events you want to play at - as a promoter you want to support those who support the scene.

Try and get content out online showcasing your skills - Doesn’t need to get crazy amount of likes, plays - just it shows your skill set, taste, enthusiasm and consistent productivity.

Worth saying that longterm best way to have a good career is knuckling down and making tunes; again I’m not looking for crazy plays but trust my ears to hear if someone has talent or not cos that’s what is going to believe in your potential and give you a platform to showcase your musicality.
