To all the other creators out there, I completely understand how frustrating trying to grow a channel can be. Especially when you see other channels that have a fraction of your content and they have thousands or subscribers and millions of views. At the time of this comment I only have 38 subscribers and I have uploaded 58 tracks. I have been regularly uploading for about 3 months and have been only seeing a new subscriber every couple of days. I guess slow motion is better than no motion! Keep working hard and best of luck to you all!
@@akaenteng2895 I just listened to all your tracks and subscribed. Keep up the great work and keep pushing forward! I look forward to hearing more of your work!
@@dauntingdarknessmusic Oh my, thank you so much! Especially for your responses! I appreciate them. I am also digging the idea of halloween being anytime of the year and so far I enjoy them! Again thank you so much! :D
Yes✊🔥
Keep working hard, it will be definetly pay off, specially if you are enjoying it, it's a cherry on the top!
Great to see your growth brother 🎉
All musicians out here. THIS is the TRUTH ! I have been researching about TH-cam for years and spent hundreds of hours for all these information.
Maddy has given all the main points needed for TH-cam Success in just 24 mins. Anybody who follow this consistently will blow out in TH-cam.
Great video Burstimo. You Guys are the Best.
Big love ♥️
and after you knew this information years ago , why you only have 700 subscribers !?
@@khaledabdrabo This is my first YT channel and I was not able to post content on this channel since band members got busy in other works. I got my second Channel "Ohavim Productions" and I have implemented some of the ideas on that channel.
I didn't mention I know all this information many years ago, I said was researching it for many years. Sorry if my words caused confusion

celebrate yourself and celebrate others 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I’m an up and coming artist about to release my first song on youtube December the 10th and this video has helped me so much, thank you so much 🙏🏻🔥
Mutuals?
This video should have a lot more views!!! 🔥🔥
It's definitely the best one I've seen so far. Especially because it is about music channels... A lot of the videos I've been seeing are "how to create or how to grow your TH-cam channel" and the tips are good. But this is gold!! All TH-cam channels are different and this gave me so much more information on MUSIC TH-cam channels.
Brilliant!! Thanks for sharing the tips 🙏🏻👏
Mutuals?
ahh 1000 seems like a wild dream, but really loved the advice about seeing where people started. Definitely gives you hope, thank you so much!
haha yea!
I’ve pretty much ignored my TH-cam channel for a few years and I’m just now gearing up to revamp it and commit. This video was sooooo helpful. ❤️
wow this is the shortest 20mins video I've ever watched
you do pretty well on your channel too
Oh wow it was 20 minutes
Stay humble. Stay sweating. I promise it will pay off. I’m going through it was we speak. Let’s work! Let’s grow and blow the roof off this b!cht 🌌🌺🕛
yeah!
yeah
Yea!! 😎

@@JAYXOfficialTV Mutuals 👊✅
I've really been pushing TH-cam this year. I went from 76 subs to 481 right now :)
I’d love any tips!!
@@yourfreemusic-nocopyrightm350 It's all about releasing GREAT content!
You all are changing the game! Thank you for taking the time to make your content. It really makes a difference!
The "geeky" vids are my favorite. Very informative and actionable. Keep them coming!

@@thea158 Are you seriously going to spam links in the comments section for a music promotion channel that has multiple videos on how to promote in a way that works? If you watch the videos you will learn that spamming links is ineffective and obnoxious. You are wasting your time. Watch the videos on this and other channels to find a way that works.
This was such a useful video!🙌🏻 I’ve been thinking of starting up my TH-cam channel properly for a while, this has definitely given me the knowledge and the motivation!
Literally have watched 10+ videos on this topic and this video knocked everything out in one! Thank you
Thank you for creating this. You're right about old videos still gaining traction as i'm currently sitting here with a pad and a pen learning from all of your videos, new and old.
LOVE IT!
Burstimo: make sure you're not steve
everyone named steve: 🥺😞
bahhhh sorry
I love how this video is so specific to helping music artists! Thank you for all the advice! Can’t wait to use your tips on my music channel😍😍😍
Most def needed this video! Love you guys I just started and have no idea where to start! 👌This is gold
Great point, that grabbing up views, more & more views don't matter if it's not even your audience.
Very helpful! Thank you so much! I’ll be sure to use these tips in my channel. Good luck to all my fellow artists! 👍
This is such a GOOD video! I am starting my music channel literally TODAY, and I've being going through tons of videos trying to figure how to grow - every other channel seems to be giving advise on how to grow in 10 days, 1 month, blah blah. Patience and sticking to doing what you're good at (and enjoy doing!) is so important.
this was seriously seriously helpful, watched the whole thing and think you just get the point across so well Maddy. Made me more excited to just keep working as hard as I can for my music, thanks so much x Olivia
What kind of music do you make?
Very informative and useful information, I'm 55 years old and I just started my music you tube channel, I just hope it's not late for me. Thank you very much.
Never late!
definitely not! you can start music at any age. also, i watched your videos. they are pretty nice!
I'm half way through the video & i already gave you thumbs up! I can feel how authentic & from the heart what you're saying is, it's not just another rubbish video that claims to show you how to grow from 0 to a million... I can feel you're a friend of mine talking personally to me and sharing her experience ❤❤❤ much love & respect
I make music too. I make Hip Hop instrumentals along with other things. What kind of music do you make?
hi Maddy, The information you put in this video are overflowing and I love this kind of content. i was thinking it took a lot of research and time to create this video. I will rewatch this again with my notebook, because i know there are time that my mind is not paying attention. Thank you for this Maddy and also regard to alex and your 2 new members. I promise to support Burstimo all the way and soon be working with you when the right time comes =)
Really quality points! Just subscribed. I'm starting my music/guitar channel and working on my content currently and this is maybe the best, most common sense advice I've seen. Love it and I'm rewatching again to make sure I get everything.
Thank you!!
good advice just started my music channel
Thank you for this is a brilliant video! It’s all so true and your channel just keeps getting better. Yours and Damian Keyes channels are brilliant! I couldn’t agree more with using TH-cam. Starting it is one of the best things I’ve done. Yes it’s hard work to get it going but when it starts it’s so rewarding because you can see it growing and your hard work is paying off. I’ve also found a new passion in TH-cam and making videos too that I didn’t know I had before! I’ve found that videos talking about new music work great!I’ve been going for just about a year now and creeping towards my first 1000 subs. Keep up the great content. Cheers!
Big love
Wow, this is great, been covering on and off between school/uni for a while. Will keep this in mind!
This is not a nerdy video, Maddy. This a video full of content and information, what is so much needed nowadays when people just use common sense to talk about a subject. You went deeper into the field! Thanks a lot for this one! This channel is fantastic and I consume it on a daily basis as study!
Big love ♥️
You guys are always the best at getting actual results. Appreciate it
I am inspired to finally start putting my music on youtube. Thanks for sharing your tips!
Yo been waiting on this, thanks again great going
It takes time growth takes time 💪🏻 video was incredible!
Thank you for this, I will be sure to be patient and follow these tips for my channel 🙏🏼
its amazing!
Thank you! Finally found a video on growing on TH-cam for music channels. All others have great tips but don’t apply much to music channels.
good luck to all artists, hope we all find our success frfrr
Some great actionable advice by Maddy here👍🏻. Not the fluff advice stuff you see on some of the other channels.
That was so instructive. Thank you very much, will try to apply this. But what I understood is that I still need to discover myself as an artist.
Thank you for making this video. It really gave me inspiration and hope in a dark time for my TH-cam channel. Time to go back and apply these changes as well as continue making new content!
Thank you for the tips, I am just starting my music channel and really need to hear this. Good stuff!
you will!
Thanks for informing us in such a proper way! :)
I want to build my channel on covers (for now at least) but I keep on deleting my videos from time to time not really staying consistent. I tell myself that I need to improve my vocal skills and that when I finally reach my dream tone, I will post endlessly. But I guess it's a common known fact that an artist is never really happy with themself. This video talked some sense into me, thanks!
Super useful tips and insights. Love it!
just started posting my music so this is really helpful. thank you!!
Thank you for this. I used TH-cam all the time and enjoy it so much more than instagram or Facebook - by far. Not sure why I never used it before.
I'm just starting out. Thank you for such an informative video :)
This really help. Just started my music channel and struggling reaching viewers but your video give me ideas and move on..
Wow thank you and I appreciate this advice. I am a producer and I'm going to try to apply this method towards my music page.. thanks again this was very helpful! 🔥🔥🔥
I absolutely love the information. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you for this information! Definitely helped me 🙏🏽
I really enjoyed the "Down to Earth" attitude of your video.
I have noted most of your points & will adjust my Channel to suit some of them.
Thank you!
Amazing content, as usual! Stil working on nailing down my youtube theme, put will get there eventually. Keep the videos coming!
Thank you!
"Artists" and "content creators" are 2 different things, imo. Its more difficult finding a niche market as an artist or a songwriter than it is for creators following the formula.
Exactly. What she says is all good advice definitely, but an artist is indeed different from a content creator. I understand that an artist can learn to be a content creator, but that doesn't 'suit' or 'gel' (in some cases) with the personality, brand, style, or the artistic integrity of the the art/artist. I don't think anyone has an answer to this problem - except maybe spending money to promote/advertise to garner some initial attention when growing a fan base...
@@victortaylorI agree with you but i do also feel like as an artist you step out of the box into content creator the moment you put your art out into the world, because at that point, you don’t lose your artistic integrity but you do look for the art to resonate with people in a certain way, whereas complete artistry would really be satisfying to oneself regardless as it is a completed product that one created. when we put that out into the world, it becomes content for others, and when we do music videos, that also is content your lyrics typed out into an image (and the lyrics themselves) is content -- i think that all artists that want to do this as a career can make the content but the big hurdle also is that, as you mentioned, it is about translating that art into other forms and it being authentically representative of said artist, based on how people tend to receive information (from a tech and music business perspective)
@@victortayloralso also , everything is also not “this or that”, versus it being “this and that” -- a lot of artists have trouble picking the right social media platforms in relation to their style of communicating ideas and audience relative to whatever one makes content about -- and even when you pick one, you still have to have and maintain a presence in other places, because different platforms do different things. it is always a long game, with changing rules, but there are some things, notably human nature concerning understanding, that do not change and have been true for a long time. there is also data and info like this video that is a lot more accessible now, and it becomes imperative to really learn fundamental info about running ads and analyzing metrics, for example, that will help to make the line from artist to fan easier to identify and replicate.
Great video and I could listen to you talk all day lol. Love your speaking voice and accent.
I’m really thankful for the content y’all are putting out. Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom and helping us lil musicians grow!!!!
You're welcome!
Love the content, I appreciate you guys dropping so much knowledge in these vids
Thanks so much for this valuable advice! It helps as a growing artist 💜🙏
This is legit the best video I've seen on this!
yep!
I'm going to try these out a bit more and hope for the best 🤞
Waiting for this since a long time! ❤️ Love your content 🤟
Big love, hope it reaches expectations!
Thanks, this was perfect timing. I just decided a few weeks ago to try and grow my channel. My goal is at least one video per week. Still trying to figure out my specific content strategy though.
Nice one! Great to set goals, just need that content strategy now
Incredible video again, thank you Burstimo.
You're welcome! Thanks for the kind words
Hey,guys see my Faded remix

So far you guys have grown, I'm starting late to plan and put your ideas into action but hey, better late than never even though never late is better 🙌
Hi, I found your video through suggested videos when browsing. Your videos are very informative & helpful.
I just made a TH-cam Channel, trying to figure out & doing my research.
Thanks for all your help. Keep it up & more power! just subbed!
Here are my theme ideas:
.Parody/Cover Songs
These would be similar to what Music with Blanks is doing, but with my own style. I figured I could make videos such as If Girl Scout from Beetlejuice was set in a Pandemic or videos that would add humour to the songs. I would rewrite the lyrics and potentially make my own backing tracks. Would the monetisation issue occur if I only used say the first half of a backing track?
.Song and Dance Covers
My original idea was to cover popular songs with singing and dancing to try ad something new and different to these songs that hasn’t been done before. I would make the videos engaging to watch as well with good editing and different camera angles. However, I am hoping to make money out of TH-cam so the monetisation issue with covers are quite deterring.
.Analysing music videos
This is an idea I just had now but it would be cool if I could analyse songs lyrics, composition and music videos. I would try find comparisons between the music itself and lyrics and try to find inspiration behind them, along with the videos themselves. I would try to estimate why artists did certain things with there songs using research. The main fault with this is that I wouldn’t be doing much singing myself, however since I literally just came up with this concept it isn’t that defined and I could try find a way to put singing in there without it feeling forced. I’m also not sure if I would really enjoy this, it seems cool but I feel that I might become bored.
I’m just a school kid, but I’m really hoping that I can build and grow a channel that will eventually be my full time job. Any advice or suggestions would be heavily appreciated!
Thanks
I've started recording vlogs where I analyze music videos deeply too :) - this is cool, It is challenging but we need to create our own strategies and keep changing them as we go along. I'm now taking a negative situation and changing it into a positive one. Just got cancelled on Twitter in May and I wrote and shot a video last weekend, edited last night and releasing it on June 16th :) - hope you can check it out: th-cam.com/video/meqvaG7imDo/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for that! :D
Up and Coming Artist from Ohio.I just wanted to thank you guys for your dedication and extremely useful information!
Thanks! Watched this and found it really helpful. Will be sending to my Dad was well for his music career.
Glad i was one of the first ones to watch this thanks guys!
You're welcome! Hope you find it useful
Really did thanks a million!
@@jxnathanforever Glad to hear!
I love this channel I recommend it to all musicians in my country Kenya
Very good explaining! It is often difficult to find the right way for your own music..
Great video !! Thanks for sharing 🥰
This was really helpful, especially since I just started my channel
Glad to hear!
Well, my name's not Steve, so I can just do "Angelo's Tour Diary" and be fine, right?
🤦♀️😂
I think you should change your name to Steve. It's the only way
you are the second version of Elon Musk!
All what you have said is true. Thank you for sharing good insights to help new youtubers to grow their channels. God bless.
I wish good luck for those who just started like me!
This is truly inspirational, I am now determined to work even harder on my channel. Oh, yes.
You're a fantastic jazz pianist wow! I know it's your talent that gets you places... but what of the TH-cam attempts done to increase your views etc in past 2 months? You surpassed me and I've had my stuff out for 9 months, but I know, no two artists/songs/talent are created equal!
✊💯🔥
I was thinking of re-themeing as a creative outlet for an Autistic musician. I feel I can give tips to other people on the spectrum that are in my shoes as I am Autistic myself. I would want to not only use it to serve as a platform to release my new music, but to showcase my gothic lifestyle aswell. With showcasing my gothic lifestyle, I can give interior decorating, fashion tips as well as make-up ideas for older goths. I would love to see your feedback on this :)
That sounds like an awesome idea. I would go for it 👍
Love this! Did you end up doing this? If so I'd like to follow
@@MegaInfinityBand I'm currently coming up with content. My presentation isn't the best so progress is slow
So when I have a chunk of videos I will start posting... hopefully very soon.
@@Shadow_Demon_X subbed anyway! Best of luck
So much Value provided freely in this video. I kept waiting for the ebook or Masterclass pitch and it didn't come. Thank you so much 🙏
Never! Only value added for free
There's also another thing that keeps me watching your video. I love the way speak. You have a beautiful accent ❤😊 I've definitely learned something by just watching just this one video. Thank you so much❤
Thanks for this, it hit home when you mentioned awkwardly talking to the camera. It’s weird, I’m working on it. Lol
lol!

I love you!! You make such helpful videos I’m working on growing this TH-cam page it’s new But with the help from your uploads I’ll have an amazing experience thanks a lot ❤️🙏🏾
You're welcome 🙏♥️
ive had my youtube since 2010 and i have so many regrets of abandoning it... your tips definitely help! thank u for the video :)
This is excellent content in itself
Hey this video is amazing I’ve watched it like 3 or 4 times I noticed you said to comment below and you’ll help!. So my problem is I want to do Vlog type videos just because I think it’ll be good but I want to do my own music I’m a soulful/90s hip hop vibe I was thinking to incorporate challenges instead of information not sure though and also should I create a separate TH-cam channel for that since my current one also has music videos on it?!? I would really appreciate the help thanks 🙏🏾
Omg your hair looks incredible like this!! Very informative video! I’m so grateful to have Burstimo
What I do is video game, anime, TV show, and general song covers and turn them into rock songs. Then I will eventually will release original songs too. Hopefully I can reach more people sooner so I can do my passion fulltime
I’m a music artist, but I was thinking of doing music reviews of songs and movies, projects that inspire the creative process. Would you say that is a good creative strategy?
Great idea!
I also try to inspire the people with my music. I subbed! can't wait to hear some of your reviews or songs in the future!
That's a good idea, but remember that if you're planning on making revenue from any of these things, you'll most likely get claimed by TH-cam's ContentID system
I love this idea!
Hey Jevin, if you want to review a song off my album you'd be more than welcome to.
