Commercial Beats For Performance And Independent Artists

By Iva Cannon


Independent artists are really booming these days. Somehow they are making music that is unique from all the similar tunes you hear on the radio. Although they do not usually make it big in the industry unless a major record label holds them, they still catch attention from the crowds that like to listen to their songs.

Sometimes, it is all about being humble. Some musicians do not depend on record labels for mass distribution of their CDs. They rely solely on their ability. Crowdfunding is one of the ways in which they are able to accumulate funds for a music project. And there are beats for performance and independent artists that will help them have a low cost production for their live performances.

They can choose from among various beats and decide which one best suits their songs. But even if they have succeeded in making records, they will still not be able to distribute them if they will not obtain licenses. The music industry requires licenses in order for them to be able to gain rights for their own songs before distributing it to the public.

If they do not do this, there is a possibility that their songs could be stolen by other persons belonging to a private record label. They will not have the grounds if they will sue those persons because they do not have license. Copyrights for songs and albums are critical to finally consider it original.

The fans of music like to discover different genres. Depending on their mood, they listen to different songs. They often take lyrics, beat, and melody as factors in judging the listenership of the song. Pop music is played most of the time on the radio and they have the tendency to sound sickening already because of too much airplay. Indie music is something fresh that people can look forward to.

Avid listeners of music like to try different genres. Often, these are the youth that like to explore new things. This is also the reason why many youngsters dig indie music. They can relate to it and they like it when they are the first to discover a band or a solo artist.

A great benefit of being an indie is that there are no managers and superiors that will dictate them how to go about things and how to deal with fame. But the disadvantage is that these musicians are not able to get the sufficient funds they need and the adequate money they deserve for the talent they have. This is the sad reality of the music industry. Popular artists get the biggest promotions and that is how they get all the money they have to buy their mansions.

Pop stars and their producers get a lot of money and financial support for their concerts and tours. The management shoulders everything and the main thing that the star will do is just to perform. The money matters will be taken care of accordingly by the staff.

In addition, it takes passion and patience to be able to create one single song. More so for a full length EP or LP. But if you love your craft and you are very dedicated, you can never get tired even if your record will not be recognized that much. What is important is that you have created a beautiful remembrance of your talent. As you become old, you have something to listen to and share with your loved ones.
