Publisher's Summary

Indie Survival is a new, acclaimed handbook for independent music artists and musicians looking to record, write, and promote without a label.

More indie artists are recording, distributing, marketing, and selling their own music now than ever before in history. Indie Survival is the critically acclaimed, do-it-yourself modern classic that has been telling them how for years.

In this up-to-the-moment book, musicians cover everything musicians need to know. Drawing on their in-the-trenches experiences, they tell musicians about:

  • Achieving indie music independent success - Indie music, or independent music, has been described as the kind of music which is independent of the major recording labels and production studios. Usually, the creators of this kind of music also adopt an independent approach and stray away from the norms of creating music and the trends of what music is appealing for the people in the present situation. However, even if this indie music is taken apart from the major record labels, the autonomy of this kind of music does not necessarily entail that they are also independent of fraudulent claims regarding music licensing.
  • Understanding the journey of a music artist - The journey of a music artist is not as simple as it seems. It is marked with heart-pounding struggle, years of dedication, and disciplined survival. Only then, one can reach the stage where he finds his dreams being fulfilled.
  • Developing music industry skills through music forums - Internet forums and discussion boards have become a valuable medium for establishing an online presence, building a reputation, networking with peers, and getting feedback on relevant topics and ideas.
  • Understanding the music lessons process - Your music lessons can be a negative experience if you take lessons from someone who is not a true music teacher. However, having said that, it is, in reality, not the music lessons that are at fault. Several elements come into play here. The first element is the teacher.
  • Becoming a global performing artist - Competition becomes fiercer every day. In a heartless, business-like entertainment, you have to always be on your toes. There is always someone nipping at your heels, and they may want "it" more than you. The "it" referred to is a success. Infinite glory is yours for asking if you're hungry enough.
  • And much more!
