Music Tryouts

(via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDtEknpfz5s)

In this new age of Distribution as a Service DaaS it only makes sense to  have the crowd that is funding the music find it too.

Ok the cat was out of the bag when Universal Music announced Spinnup. And if your desire is to be part of Universal then according to an official press release you can start in the UK. 

Glenn Cooper, Director of Digital at Island Records, said: “Digital distribution is a key stepping stone in the career of any unsigned artist and Spinnup provides the perfect ecosystem to help them get their music to market.  Island Records has consistently broken ground in both the digital and A&R space; Spinnup sits alongside our existing crowdfunding platform www.FanRepublic.co.uk and both deliver unique, innovative opportunities to discover and nurture new acts.”

So gather around kids and don't let your parents see this....... what this means is the music business is allowing you to now become part of the process and you don't have to go wait in line to see if you make it on to a show and then be found.   

Nor do you have to drive across the country to attend a cattle call at the local coliseum with thousands of others aspiring artists and sometimes just folks who TV needs to keep it from being totally scripted.

With Music Tryouts you'll be in a cue online and it will be up to you and your music to get you through the rounds to win a digital distribution deal via altavozentmt.    

The Crowd ((((you)))) really gets to decide who makes it round by round. And, Since distribution is everything making it means getting a digital distribution deal "D3" worth over 50 thousand US dollars.
