Nice to see one of these sorts of articles giving out decent advice for a change

[Samuel_L_Damnson]

yea. i just bookmarked that. I thought it would be:

Step 1:
Join cloud killers.

Step 2:
nothing.



seriously big up youself

If this advice is actually genuine may I suggest a change of topic title.

I actually thought we had spam bots back again this time with more targeted spam, judging by the title alone.

Try something more mature and less "something awful"

Step 1:
Join cloud killers.

Step 2:
nothing.

This was fully what I expected to see

Great article, few realisations in there for me. I wanna throw in using promotional channels such as youtube. Not trying to brag but I recently had a track featured on airwave music on youtube, it's not exactly UKF but 200,000 subs isn't a bad effort. My facebook page then jumped up about 150 likes in less than a week, due to the track being a like to download (I do it for all my free downloads). I got a few soundcloud followers out of it too, mostly other producers who are active soundcloud users and actually click the links in the youtube description I would assume.

I've kinda come to the realisation that you don't really have to be that good to get some kind of notoriety on the interwebz, which I would assume is something labels would be interested in when you send demos and what not.

Really nice article, totally wasn't expecting that. I'd add sending tracks to other DJ's on the list. Getting a track played on someones podcast/radioshow/mix/liveset can be another great tool to get some buzz around your name.

Wow, that was actually worth reading. Pity I can only big you up once a post!

[f1rstsense]

Wow, I never thought of joining google+ before, but you made me do it yesterday. Although the only breakbeat community there has only 20ish ppl in it Good article tho, and bigups for all the effort mate, I'm a listener of your podcasts/tutorials and they are awesome!

Next step: an article on how to get a 1000 people enjoy your music

[Seth The Damon]

Great article, i'm gonna bookmark it!

[Bass Institute]

Big ups dude, really helpful article! Much appreciated.

Some really helpful ideas, some I'd never even thought of or knew about.

[Karoshi]

very good article! I NEVER promote my music, I find the whole process cringey tbh, but this actually seems decent.

Cheers for the advice, deffo a good article

and I also thought it was gonna be a "pay monies-get followers" thread.

[elyhess]

really informative article, thank you for sharing. The whole G+ thing is a great idea, i never would have thought

[dickman69]

i like the one that says just go dj around town

tbh that step takes its own 15 steps
