Radio Ainda Funciona Bem Para Descobrir Novas Músicas

Radio thrives as a place for music discovery despite the streaming threat

Although it seems like streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music are dominating the music scene, the 2017 edition of Nielsen's Music 360 report found that 49% of people still discover new tunes via good ol' fashioned AM/FM radio. As you can see in this chart from Statista, that compares 27% who use online music services.

Music discovery is one of the largest ways music streaming services have tried to differentiate themselves. Spotify created "Discover Weekly" playlists to present listeners with a tailored list of songs every Monday. 

According to the report, the main reason people are such radio fans is because of the DJs – one thing online streaming services would have a hard time replicating.

Warner Music Nashville E Southwest Formalizam Parceria Para Levar Música Ao Vivo Nos Aviões

Warner Music Nashville and Southwest Formalize Partnership Bringing Live Music to the Skies

Warner Music Nashville (WMN) announced today that they have teamed up with Southwest Airlines to produce a variety of promotions that will bring music into the skies. With this new partnership, Southwest will continue their history of pop-up shows on board flights featuring WMN artists, with the label also agreeing to continue their tradition of traveling with the airline.

Perhaps the most popular aspect of the agreement is the continuation of the Live at 35 in-air concert series, as well as the Opry at the Southwest Porch at Bryant Park series of summer concerts. Launched as a curiosity in 2011, the Live at 35 series has only grown in popularity over the past six years, as Southwest passengers hope that their flight will be one of the lucky ones to feature a sure-to-go-viral performance. To celebrate the announcement, Atlantic Records/WMN artist Devin Dawson performed to a capacity crowd aboard a Southwest flightleaving Nashville for Philadelphia one Sunday afternoon as the latest member of the Live at 35 family of musicians.

With an equipment failure (a bad amp) forcing one of his accompanying guitarists into the role of second cameraman for the staging, Dawson performed his debut single ("All On Me") as well as a few songs off of his upcoming album Dark Horse, due to drop on Jan. 19. After the concert in the clouds wrapped, the young singer walked the aisles, handing out souvenir guitar picks and compact discs to his audience; among those in attendance aboard the flight were country artists Kip Moore and Delta Rae, all scheduled to share a stage with Dawson at the Fillmore in Philadelphia later that day.

Upon arriving in Philadelphia, Dawson commented on his airborne performance, "That was a little bit different than what I usually do every day."

He continued, "You know, some people don't really enjoy flying; some people get very nervous and don't like it. I hope that something like this [performance] is just a cool surprise for some [passengers] that helps them forget about their everyday woes, and I'll just play a couple of songs to make them smile."

CDBaby É A Única Empresa Que Divide Os Riscos Com Você

“CDBaby is the only company that shares the risk of your release with you.”

First of all thanks to Chris Robley for this article.

Why CD Baby makes the most sense for artists building a catalog over their whole lifetime.

When I attend music conferences, I get asked a lot, “Why should I choose CD Baby?”

My answer usually begins with, “Well, beyond the initial setup fee, we only make money when you do. We’re not going to ask for another $50 per album every year for the rest of your life just so you can keep your music available online.”

Our model gives you a worry-free way of building (and distributing) a catalog of albums and singles over a lifetime.

One CD Baby artist, Huge & the Genre Benders, actually wrote a whole blog post about this with graphs and all. I’ll re-post some of it below. Here goes…

---

There are many companies that distribute independent music… (but) I always use CDBaby without question – here’s why:

• CDBaby is the only company that shares the risk of your release with you.

The biggest barrier to artists succeeding in their business is the risk they take when paying to produce and market their music. Finding a company (or any group) that is willing to share that risk, and thereby reduce it, is invaluable … unless you have the backing of a record company that is willing to do it for you.

But what does this look like? What do I mean “share your risk”?

Well, unlike companies that charge (an annual) flat fee for service, CDBaby shares only in your profits. You make money, they make money. You get nothing, they get nothing. There’s a great example of the difference in digital distribution services. The key thing you need to understand is the concept of a Product Life Cycle, and the fact that each of your CD releases has one. EVERY CD release has one – Emimem’s, Beyonce’s, Coldplay’s, Gaga’s, … every CD release starts with no sales, rises to a peak, and then falls away again. Sometimes, the peak arrives in a week or two, sometimes it takes six months to arrive … (some, like mine, never peak) … but the fall away again is inevitable.

So, what does this mean for Indies? Well, it means that at first your digital distribution costs will be bigger than your income from sales … and then you should make something from sales … but (with other distributors) your album will probably spend an eternity costing you money! The graph looks like this:

On the other hand, if you choose the CD Baby approach, you will ALWAYS make something from your release – even is it’s 91% of bugger-all. Yes, at your peak CD Baby will cost you more than the flat fee model will … assuming you make that much … but over the following 20 years, it will cost a hell of a lot less. The graph looks like this:

Now, I have no problem whatsoever paying someone who’s done a great service for me – especially if they have made nothing in all the time that I’ve made nothing. That’s called a true partnership – you win, I win. The companies that charge a flat fee are saying that they want to get paid no matter what happens to you – they don’t care whether you succeed or fail! That’s perfectly legitimate business, but it’s not sharing your risk and it’s not helping you in all the time that your releases don’t make their minimum.

I’ll take the sharing approach every time … and I’m happy to give back when it finally works for me.

Prepare-se Para Distribuir Sua Música Nas Férias De 2017

Distribute your music in time for the 2017 holiday season: end-of-year delivery deadlines

Are you ready for the holiday boom in music sales?

20% of all music sales (and 30% of sales on CD Baby’s music store) happen in the last 6 weeks of the year.

CDs and vinyl records will be wrapped under the tree. Download cards will be stuffed in stockings. Millions of Apple and Amazon gift cards will be purchased and redeemed. Lots of brand new iPhones and iPads, as well as wi-fi speakers like Sonos, will access streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music for the first time.

We want to make sure that when music sales skyrocket, you’re ready for the ride.

If you’d like your music selling on iTunes and CD Baby in time for the holidays, you’ll need to send it to us SOON!

IMPORTANT: Keep in mind that the “Delivery deadline” below is the day we send your music to Apple. You will obviously need to have everything complete and approved on our end BEFORE that. Read more about that timeline below.

CD Baby distribution deadlines for the holiday season*:

Release date	Delivery/Finalization Deadline
11/17 – 11/24	Friday, November 10th
11/25 – 12/01	Friday, November 17th
12/02 – 12/08	Friday, December 1st
12/09 – 12/22	Friday, December 8th
12/23 – 01/05 (2018)	Friday, December 15th

* Launch dates are for iTunes, Apple Music, and CDBaby.com only. We cannot guarantee that all our digital music partners will make your tracks available by this date.

NOTE: Music delivered after these deadlines may not be available on the desired release date and that clicking the ‘Submit for Distribution’ button does not immediately trigger delivery – there are extra steps in the process prior to delivery (detailed as follows).

Once you’ve uploaded art and audio, provided all of the necessary information and the submission has been paid for, it should go live on CDBaby.com within 24-48 hrs after you’ve clicked on the “Submit for Distribution” button (unless your release date specifies otherwise).

At that point, your submission automatically enters our inspection queue. It then takes us 4-6 business days for us to inspect your album, after which we’ll follow up with you via e-mail. We will either A) ask you to fix any formatting that need fixing, or B) tell you that we’ve approved your release and that we require your final approval (instructions on how to approve will be provided in the e-mail). Once you give us final approval, we will deliver your submission out to our partners. This delivery date is the one related to the deadline date on the right.
