Band Members: I do online promoting through various websites, chat rooms, blogspaces, and high traffic music internet sites that I have found over my years of doing this. It basically drives people to your page to hear your music. If people like what they hear and have myspace accounts then they will add you. It’s that simple.

8 Things not to say or do to a music producerYou know, in this music industry I think music producers might have it the worse. Being one myself I encounter a lot of stupid people, dumb shit and bad business. All because people have no real idea how to approach someone concerning business. Here is a list 10 things not to do or say to a music producer.Things NOT to say1. "Can I get it for free? It's good promotion for you"
Many people get the misconception that they can "promote" someone by "using" there music. When in reality there just trying to "use" the person. Unless you are a established artist, there is no real "promotion" unless you magically have a top 10 hit somewhere. And even if your an established artist, if you're not attaching "Produced By" which should rightfully be there anyways or mentioning that producers name in the song, there is no real "promotion". Stop it.2. "I will give you points on my album"
This one is funny to me. 9 times out of 10 your album will most likely never see the day and if it does it won't sell anything. It won't even sell anything substantial enough for the minimum to receive a royalty check. And say you could, the time frame it takes to actually get an album out and generate a profit is god honestly not worth it.3. "How much you chargin?"
"How much you chargin" is the most annoying thing ever. It is the first thing out of a window shopper's mouth. How about you admit you don't have any money to spend on production and just keep it moving? How about, "I have X amount of dollars to spend, let's make it work." or something of that degree.4."Ill do you some verses for free, for a beat"
Now what in the world would I need with your verses? What the hell am I going to do with that? I don't want to listen to you rap. I want to listen to you putting money in my hand for my hours of work. Seriously, what in your mind thinks someone wants a "verse" from you when they have nothing to do with rap?Things not to do5. Pretend like your going to buy something
Please don't pretend that you want to buy some music. How about you just be upfront and say you can't do anything right now. Why lead someone on? Why cause friction and disappointment on purpose? Who really wants to go through with all of that. Be upfront always. Explain your situation and status so there is confusion or intercommunication.6. Use something and don't pay
This is not a try before you buy. This is not let me eat a hamburger and say "oh, it's not good enough I don't want to buy it" kind of thing. Know what you want and get it, never use or expend things you don't need. Don't waste someone's hard work, there might be someone else out there who might want that track. Music can be a personal thing for music producers and to see X amount of energy just go wastefully on a mixtape can be a hard thing.7. Ask to hear music when you have no plans on doing anything
Major labels do this all the time. A&R's request music to hear music for artist x x and x when in reality they already have the track list and producers in mind, an in house team already signed on to do an album or big producers already paid for singles. Why they do this, who knows?8. Lead someone on for your own personal gain
Don't lead anyone on folks. This is the worst thing anyone can do. If you have no plans in fulfilling promises don't even mention them. People do this tactic to get what they need from someone for their own personal gain and in return LIE. Why lie? Why drag someone's hopes trough the mud with no real intentions on fulfilling them.thank's Mr.P 754 244 6637
