    * One thing about technology we have today is this. We the artists don’t need too much of management, and Record label bosses or Super producers for that matter.

    We can make the beats, and record our voices on tracks on a LaptopPC. Make our own CDs, and drive out in rented buses to perform shows.

    WE should be able to control “every aspect” of our music.

    Those wolves sucked us out for so many years…
    Don’t believe them lies! They are NOT listening to a demo when you hand it to them in whatever way!

    There is no need for recordlabels anymore.

    Not listening to “unsolicited demos” is the rudest thing ever. And they always been like this…
    Internet is a good thing. It will finally kill this maffia industry!
    In fact the music-industry just killed themselves…

    Very useful …
    Very useful information. We live in the age where most successful artists will do it on there own before a label will look at them. The fact that you can basically do all the things a label used to do for artists on your own, makes record labels spoiled for choice. They mostly ignore artists that are going to have to be built from the ground up. They want an artist/band who has a following, has a cd or album, and is reasonably malleable. Times are a changin ;)
    great vid 5/5
