Hey guys, now I know some of you will be saying "Jump off the CN Tower to get more fans" and that's a start LOL. For all of you who have gained a satisfactory fan base, how did you do it? Promotions? I have a Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/warfaredubstep, a soundcloud page: http://www.soundcloud.com/warfare and am working on my Myspace/twitter pages. TY ALL! :w:

:h: nice tracks bro, i was surprised cuz i thought you would be another shitty randomstep producer. Your tracks are listenable and you have a sense of rhythm.

the answer to your question is to get local fans, there is no better support for a newbie.

Thanks for the response, guys! I guess I will just wait it out and keep producing more music. I'm still a beginner and haven't familiarized myself with most of the features in my DAWs. Time will tell. Thanks again! :Q: :4: :mrgreen: :h: :i:

Find out about radio sites. There's a lot of sites that stream radio now. Send your tunes to the dj's playing. I've discovered many a good producer this way.

I think getting active here seems a reasonable place to start. I think the stuff in your sig is decent as well. Good luck :)

In all seriousness I think if you burn your tracks on to a cd and hand em out on street corner to people they will hear your talent and your career will take off from there. Ove seen a lot of successful people who started out by passing out the mix tapes to folks as they wall by. Make sure u are wearin a shirt with your artist name and logo so you look legit. Also it doest hurt to ask them for spare change, after all you are a starving artist who's trying to make it big in a cuthrought industry full of bad people. Best of luck, I hope that one day you will become a good artist with fans

Release tunes 3 years apart.
Limit to 1000 copies.
Add glitter.
Profit.

A good friend of mine works for a big record label (cant name it or him for obvious reasons) He told me in 2012 no fans will be cooler than loads of fans.
Djs and Producers will be deleting facebook fan pages, making there tweets private and not doing gigs.

Stay ahead of the game, keep your head down and dont pick up any fans, 2012 is your time.

You see, pretty girls are forgiven mediocrity. :U:
