Getting signed to a record deal is just about every band/musicians ultimate goal, but unfortionatelly, unlike wanting to be a Microsoft engineer you cant just go to college and expect a job when you get out. Sure there are music colleges and plenty of success stories to follow, but for those of you who dont have the time, money, or motivation to attend, I have an easier route. This applys to anyone wanting to get heard.
TAXI: record deals, publishing deal, film TV placement, recording your music, songwriting Is a GREAT place to start, or maybe finish your adventure. They are an A&R service, that for a small one time a year fee will accept ANY material you submit. They have ads running all the time, looking for EVERYTHING from bands to sign, different styles of music for tv and movie placement and just about everything else you might think of. The great thing about this service, they have industry professionals in EVERY area of music. So if you are in a metal band, you dont need to worry about someone who deals with soft rock review your music. The nice thing is, these people have worked in the industry for a long time, and have a background you can trust.
Once submitting music through them, their experts will review your submission and critique it. If they feel its up to par to submit to the actual person looking for the music they will forward it and the music is now in the right hands. If the music isnt up to par, they will actually take the time to tell you exactly what it needs to make it worthy of submission. Dont worry, they accept everything from professional recordings, to not so great home recordings, depending on the ad type. Some ads want professional recorded material for direct placement, others are looking for material to re-record. Check out the site, I hope it helps you on your journey, and if you happen to sign up and get signed or sell some tunes, drop me a line, success stories are always appreciated here. Keep Rockin
