I started doing this because i wanted to make cool music and art. And the beauty was in becoming more skilled at creating that art, and becoming friends with likeminded people along the way. I really struggle with how everything’s set up where the system favours things that are easily digestible instead of cool. It almost feels like its designed to push out passionate people. I know i’m here yapping into the void, but fuck man i’m a passionate guy, i just wanna make cool music and draw and connect with those of you who like those same things.
@planetmarte_ @grimoire_______ @juulonthebeat I’m fortunate enough to live in a big metroplex with some good promotion teams that do actually care about the small artists, but not everyone’s circumstances are that open
@planetmarte_ @grimoire_______ @juulonthebeat I do agree with you that it’s very rigged against the artists n that’s sad, sorry for misunderstanding what you were getting at. all I was trying to convey is that djs in smaller markets have no choice but to work with shady people or try and do it themselves
@grimoire_______ @planetmarte_@juulonthebeat exactly! complaining about the system won’t get you anywhere and unfortunately the only thing you can do is play ball with them or don’t get booked. Or you can do what I did and start your own event and put your ideal practices into play🫶🏻 forewarning events are expensive to run.
i’ve always wondered if artists dislike when people make remixes of their song and drop it within a week of the original drop... maybe unpopular opinion but i feel like you should let the original shine for a little bit but who cares ig it’s just silly bleep bloops
