New Rules: #1 Don’t Ask To Send Music… JUST SEND IT!
The Be A Better Producer Blog’s “New Rules” lays out some basic rules that everyone should follow. Simple and easy…Rule: #1 Don’t Ask to send music… JUST SEND IT!
If you are going to e-mail someone and ask if you can send them some music, don’t ask… JUST SEND THE MUSIC. Responding back with an email can take just as long as listening to a few of your beats/songs/limericks/etc. So save whoever you are asking the time & just include the music from the start. If they don’t want to listen to your music, or it’s too late for a beat submission or whatever, they won’t do it anyway. If you are worried about being seen as rude by attaching music in the first e-mail, just add this to the end of your e-mail.
“I’ve attached some of my music if you do have the time. Thank you”
If anyone is offended by that, they would probably be even more offended by you asking for a response to send music before you send it.
Good advice. Asking before sending is pretty pointless.
hot site…great articles and knowledge…looking forward to the lloyd banks behind the beat, bangin track…..keep up the awesome work mane….
thanks for this one… glad to see ways are changing in the industry with tech.
I don’t think anyone is afraid of being seen as rude. However I for one are a part of that very large population of people who like to protect the data on their devices and don’t just click “open” on random email attachements. It’s a pretty good way to get your mails deleted and your adress blocked by the receipient.
Unless it is for a beat compo or something where the adress was setup to receive files for it.
I agree with the random dude that posted about protecting your data,,, Thats exactly what I would do!! I dont trust shit like that always!!
Thanks for this info.I used to do this back then and got some slack for it..No response..lol. Arigato
