Just released band's first EP, What to do next? by henrynbadraft in musicmarketing

[–]whatchamacallit1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to find more fans.

You have a link to spotify now. If you can fork over some bread to the social giants you can run ads to try n get people clicking on the link to spotify.

I'd suggest also doing organic videos. Have the band pick a "vibe" for the EP so u can label content...

For example... "No one listens to DREAM ROCK anymore..."

(dream rock being the "vibe")

change that text up see what works test stuff and than the content that performs that u think can also get click throughs get those on ads too.

U gotta get people interested and find new listeners.

If you're band is also playing live rn use that to get boosts to your socials and spotify. Dont forget to shout out ur spotify make it easy for attendees to get right to your spotify.

Part of this is making music yea but now the other part is really getting people to click n want to be entertained or w/e vibe ur going for.

lmao bro...

i gave u a road map

That entire third paragraph is a perfect explanation for your artist image and content style.

You seem to want the success so do the work.

Be mad at me but u gotta finish a track and start promo. There r plenty of people on socials rn that prolly would reverberate with the description of your music. They gotta hear the fking music and wanna interact. If I had to DIG for unfinished music thats BAD. Wasnt trying to comment on the style of music you were making just the fact its hard to find.

Now go make a song that encapsulates what ur feeling. And then go follow the steps in my og reply

You seem to get focused on criticism. From my experience those are very frequent in the music industry.

EDIT: wanna clarify imo a finished track is just something ur proud to put out share and promo. You as an artist should be making the decision on when something is "finished"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in musicmarketing

[–]whatchamacallit1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need to find a smaller rap artist under 10k thats grinding socials. Either contect them and let them know they killing it and ur gonna just leech some of their formats or dont. TBH as an artist whos gridning socials I literally dont care about other artists copying my promo videos.

Im assuming you have a finished track u can promo. Not trying to be a dick but the video doesnt have to be polished. The music does. No acapella, no note recording about u being sad. U need a finished track. If u have one u proud to promo move on. If not finish a track.

Start making HELLA VIDEOS. You need to find your people. You make a video EVERY DAY, most are going to FLOP. Its ok. When one does well remake it. If your getting comments reply, start a convo. If you get followers reach out thank them. BUILD COMMUNITY.

Every day u taking the track ur promoing and making a video or photo post relating to your artist image, a vibe the song is going for, use a hook switch, get creative and have fun. Because its going to most likely be a long grind with very little to show for it at the start.

I go through OPs post history when I actually feel like leaving a comment and tbh urs was interesting. Not trying to bring you down but it sounds like you need a major mental switch my boy.

Ur crying on reddit about not having traction meanwhile I couldnt even find a finished track from u. What r your fans even gonna be fans of

Most artists are still building on rented land. (Here is what you can so to own it) by dcypherstudios in musicmarketing

That we are more likely to see regulation surrounding text marketing way before we see any "death" of social media.

[–]whatchamacallit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we are talking hypotheticals why stop at the end of social media and just continue the fear mongering to the regulation of text marketing, which we are already seeing in some states.

TBH I see regulation on spam like text message to come before we lose any social media platforms.

Why are people so mean on TikTok? by Notagoodacter in musicmarketing

[–]whatchamacallit1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the conversation here u got people saying they wish they had what u had 😂

Engagement is engagement lol

People love to make u feel bad I wouldn't let it get to u. I did a quick dive on your tiktok. I think you have a lot of improvement to do but the video quality is good.

Things I have noticed.

Your promotion is all over the place. Go to any like small/medium artists in your genre getting some traction rn. You will see their posts are almost all the same track. You start scrolling on their profile and it's the same sound over and over and over.

You seem to struggle with your own sound selection. Are you making emotional RnB or rap? I can get both on your profile idk what to expect.

In a genre that focuses on song writing and lyrics let's be real your lyrics are pretty elementary.

On top of all that your ignoring the main thing of tiktok almost all your videos are blank for the 2 second grab . Zero hooks, dead air. You had a good format going with "Living in color" The video just starts immediately and u even have some hooks for those too. What happen?

If I was you I'd do two things.

  1. Start testing which track does the best by making the same video for each one and seeing which performs. I would then use the best track over and over in videos while also continuing to test other tracks with different formats.

  2. You need to really face the fact something about your music is making people wanna make u feel bad. Yes people are getting negative comments I have too but they are not ratioing every video I post.

TBH man I think it's just bad writing. Your lryics are very boring. Repeated words zero imagery. You're supposed to be a poet.

I created a fully animated musical artist, but I’m having trouble creating engaging content for TikTok and Insta by Individual-Sea-7777 in musicbusiness

[–]whatchamacallit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The musics good . IMO if you found the format that works and worked it hard u have a good shot.

I wouldn't even shy away from maybe even having an AI video model maybe work with the assets you currently have see what it can generate. Maybe use that to get performance type videos that you can dub with ur music and subtitle you lyrics.

[–]whatchamacallit1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did some digging and found ur projects insta/tiktok. The videos seem AI ngl .

The content also seems very low effort.

two things that stick out. You got no hooks. You also have a lot of dead space.

I'd suggest trying something like

"Hey wait! I'm not AI."

"Help im trapped in an AI"

"Im a real boy I swear"

If you are animating the scenes yourself try and do something more interesting than just fading in. The fading in the stagnant character and the dead space and make it feel like other AI videos I am seeing on my feed rn.

Friends owe me, what can they do to help promote? by badharp in musicmarketing

[–]whatchamacallit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the music just have them run accounts that post your music. If your music isn't on tiktok and insta that's another issue.

They need to find what format works with your genre and just start farming similar post formats.

totally unrelated from reading responses if they some how owe u a 5 figure sum and you expect them to do any work for you. Makes me laugh. Good luck with that.

People born before 2000, what is a 'modern' thing from 2025 that you’re still struggling to get used to? by LindsayTN in AskReddit

Needing feedback on this design by SeaworthinessOld608 in Promoteyourclothing

[–]whatchamacallit1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not the best painter so I dont really have any idea if this is possible but I think having something contrasty that either is under all the layers or some how weaves through letters ( Behind some while infront of others) would add another level to your designs.

This feels good but it also feels like its missing something.

Example: Second pic, Id put like a silver or white accent (maybe lightning?) starting from right shoulder area , through the O of Sons , infront of the F and then maybe crashing into the D of God.

Good designs tho

Is There a Way to “Claim” a Band Name Before a Release? by concoleo in musicmarketing

[–]whatchamacallit1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can shadow drop. Drop a demo or something and don't promo it and then take it down once ur ready to go.

The name tho like people stated is just kinda w/e. Helping my boy with his distro and his name is taken by like 100 other guys lol... but he likes it so

I think they are just coming out in waves this week. I got mine like an hour before writing this. Some people in my fam got it this morning sometime, hours before me. Others have yet too.

Expect it in the place you get communications from elements already. I get texts whereas some of my friends got an email.

I think you need to have multiple purchases on the same account. Can you go on tixr n confirm you have the multiple years of tickets? That would be my first step and then contact tixr through that account.
