Re: (313) Artist Compensation?

2007-10-25 Thread disrupt


Well, in my experience label and artist split the profit of a release 
50/50. If you're lucky you'll get an advance on this one. For that 
you'll give the label the permission to do whatever they feel is right 
with this particular recording.


Cheers!

Having never been on the producer side of things, I'm curious if
anyone can illuminate some of the basics when it comes to artist
compensation for small record labels (the kind most of us buy our
vinyl from).

So if Producer A  writes a track, how does he/she sell it to a small
electronic label?  Is he/she paid a one-time fee for the track or are
they given a percentage based on how many prints of the track sell?
I'm interested in how this works with our music and small labels, not
the rest of the music world.

Maybe some of the people on here who've been producing for years can
illuminate this for us?

Obviously the focus should always be on the ends (good music) and not
the means (how much $$ am I getting for it), but this seems like an
interesting topic to me

 Googled but I can't find it.

 I am picking up this thread from about 13 months ago...
 
 So I finally get to add to this b/c I'm a new, first time dad, as of almost
 a month ago. As you either know, or can imagine, there's tons of writing and
 products out there that play on the idea of Classical music being good and
 calming for baby. I personally think it's a load of hooey and a marketing
 technique they use b/c in the real world, people associate classical music
 with intelligence and culture.
 
 Someone gave us a baby Einstein CD (a series of toys, music, and video for
 infants), and it was crap - 40 minutes of classic lullabies played on a
 general MIDI preset box.
 
 My theory goes like this: when baby is in utero, he/she is swimming in
 fluid. All of the outside sounds get translated to swirling bass, and it's
 LOUD in there; think about what it sounds like when you're under water. I
 was looking for the best music to mimic that environment
 
 To that end, the thing that just astounds me is that my son loves and is
 calmed by dubby techno (lucky for me!). When he starts to cry, I play rhythm
  sound, maurizio, or deepchord over and over. More up tempo Gez Varley,
 Ifach label, or Rob Hood tracks work too.
 
 The trick is turning it up, not to any ludicrous level, but loud enough to
 feel the bass kick. Cutting back on the highs helps too.
 
 Hopefully, his taste in music will continue along this path :)

Re: (313) a question regarding DEMF and the history of Detroit techno

2006-05-18 Thread disrupt
. and jungle wise, soundmurderer definitely has something going on
 that is much more related to detroit simply because the guy's life has
 obviously been influenced by growing up in/around detroit. so drawing
 attention to these other people is serving absolutely no one except
 those whose name will now be associated with something they had
 nothing to do with. and thats wack.
 
  No other city in the world can boast to be what Detroit is ..  and from
where I am
  standing the DEMF is a celebration of what Detroit has started, and the
fact that
  the festival is in the heart of the city is testament to what Detroit
has committed
  to continue.
 
  While I respect you are upset, and for many good reasons.  Until they
start holding
  the DEMF in New York or Berlin I think you should work on the positives.
 
 look, since they announced paxahau was doing the festival this year,
 ive given them the benefit of the doubt at every stage. initially i
 said well, i know what theyre known for, but hopefully theyll keep
 the big picture in mind when picking the acts to play. then the
 initial lineup came out, and it was obvious that they had done no such
 thing. they said they would announce more lineup later, so i held out
 that they would add much more detroit stuff. then the full lineup was
 released, with only a few good additions and lots of other extraneous
 nonsense piled on. so i assumed that with so few detroit
 representations that theyd give those people whose blood sweat and
 tears they owed the existance of the festival to SOME iota of credit
 by giving them good timeslots to rock the crowds. of course, i was
 wrong yet again. they have had numerous chances to do ANYTHING right,
 and aside from booking rob hood and giving him a good timeslot, they
 have screwed everything else up!
 
  But .. perhaps you think I have no right to comment because I don't live
in Detroit.
 
 nah, i dont think anything of the sort. in case you didnt know, im not
 from detroit, nor do i have any connection to it outside of my deeply
 held passion for its music and by extension its culture and it.
 
  If thats the case then Detroit Techno should have never been played
outside the
  city limits.
 
 let me state how i feel about people outside detroit playing at the
 festival: i dont mind it at all. last year was a great case with all
 the dutch people playing who obviously have enough connection in their
 music (even though it is not music i buy, or listen to on anything
 resembling a regular basis) to deserve to be there. same thing with
 past performers like 4 hero and rhythm and sound and even richie
 hawtin. however, i dont feel like the festival should be concentrated
 on those people. they should be given their due respect as great
 artists, but this is DETROIT'S electronic music festival. this should
 be all about the detroit artists. and now its just not. taking the
 detroit out of it and all youve got is some random electronic music.
 and thats a rave. what that has to do with detroit, i'm not sure. but
 i guess we'll all find out in a couple days!

'The Uncrowned King of Organ Music' the article says.

Stumbled over one of his records on a flea market and thought it one of this
rare obscure pieces you just buy for the cover and strangeness of it. But I
then found out that this guy sold more than 18 Mio records and seemed to be
very well known from the 60s to 80s. Excellent Hammond niceness first, later
on the most hilarious synth tunes.

Absolutely check the brilliant interview there (scroll down the page) he did

funniest German-English I ever heard (especially when he talks about
synthesizers...)! Some tunes to listen in there too! For the RealPlayer.

 It's hard to say what motivated the shooter.  There is even speculation
 he planned to attack the official party itself which was well-run
 on a heavily traveled street and finished at the early hour (for me
 anyway :) of 4 am.  When they say, the freaks come out, Seattle
 knows how to do that and be cool with it.
 
 The Seattle scene has always been an ever-changing melange and
 people cross readily between music genres because they are *friends*,
 you know.  The boundaries are much less than they are in other parts
 of the country, from what I have observed, and there is a lot of
 crossover between electronic and regular band scenes as the
 interests of those already identified as victims indicates.  And there
 is less of the segregation by age groups that has occurred in
 other places, certainly in Portland where I am.  The people in that
 house were in the late teens to late 20s.
 
 This was utter violence visited on a scene that works hard to keep
 that out, where people actually say PLUR and mean it.  Our
 friend groovinkim, who founded nwtekno, lives a few blocks away
 and says the neighborhood is semi-sketchy.  This is all about a
 multi-ethnic youth culture trying to find a safe space to function in
 an increasingly unbalanced society.  You can chuckle at the candy
 aspect of some of it but these are, through only a couple degrees of
 separation, our brothers and sisters in electronic dance music of
 *whatever* kind.
