NCGs with social media/marketing experience
Specific to music or otherwise
I'm trying to get out there as an individual musician, kind of blending the live recording band stuff I do with the freelance composing/teaching It's a different animal from just booking a band, where a Facebook page with 500 likes is enough to get you into the average bar. I have a soundcloud, bandcamp, and Twitter, mostly just using the soundcloud as a portfolio for people wanting to hire me. I don't really use ig/fb because what I'm doing is less image-oriented/superficial, but I could probably use em. Any advice on platforms and how to use them? Tryna have this in place when I'm done with a professionally done EP. Songs are about half finished, doing some tracking over the course of the next month but I'll be sure to share with you when it's done |

IG might be where its at. twitter is good but slowly dying, which sucks.
i havent been on FB in years now so I don't know how good that would be, but instagram is good for snippets and shit. just make a quick graphic or snag an image or something and put up a 15 second clip of some music or something. i think they might do 60 seconds now i dunno im out of the loop i only use twitter anymore but i don't do it in a networking way, although other artists absolutely do and check their mentions. as far as getting peoples attention and shit i dunno. i think the only thing collab wise would be with pretty low level people until your buzzing or got a decent following and can figure out a way to do it without sounding desperate the blog era was the best era but i don't even know how people consume music now. but at least in the blog era people would pirate your work and help promote you lol
