I've been featured to many editorial playlists since 2019 and in most of those pitches, I always mention what this song is helpful for, besides why it is something to pay attention for. For example, I mainly make EDM songs, so I write something like "this song is great for going for a run but also for cycling and even for the clubs (...)", as these curators are looking for new music to fill their multiple playlists they have control of, that can make their lives a bit easier!
😎
This is great !!! Going to start doing this with my pitches
Yupp! This works for me as well! To even go further. I look at all of the main genres of music on Spotify and listen to each one. I determine which one fits on Spotify playlists. At the top, they have these catchy headline phrases to introduce the playlist. I use it also in my pitch to Spotify.
Same. I have dance track I submitted to dsp’s last night that’s perfect for the clubs. That 4 on the 4, heart to heart, make you sweat kind of vibe.
Thank you 🙏🏾
I never even thought about it like that. That makes it easier for the artist as well. Makes so much sense. Thank you fr
this dude has all my favorite songs in the background its actually crazy. gecs, dijon, turnstile, underscores. Amazing taste man!
This channel has the highest quality content for indie musicians
Appreciate that!
Jesse you’re seriously teaching me how to have a music career. can’t thank you enough
😎
seriously not only are you giving massive insight… but your fucking hilarious man… super entertaining and helpful, appreciate you 🙏
Really appreciate that
im definitely taking notes and applying this to my current album rollout dropping next week, thank you Jesse this channel is leveling up my artist music career!
On my way to building my first fan base and its been a beautiful journey! Glad I found your channel really hearing alot of the things i've been putting into action for the last few years and this has made me more confident in my actions! Thank you Jesse great practical advice!
🕺
Hey all this video is part 3 of my videos on Finding and leveraging your community to watch the rest head here: th-cam.com/video/GtqQyvVYbuQ/w-d-xo.html
I suck so bad at writing a pitch for my music (and advertising my music in general), so this is greatly appreciated. 2:57 isn't far off from how bad I am currently, though I have been trying to put everything I'm learning here into practice. You rock, Jesse!
Appreciate that very much.
Great musformation Jesse 👍. Thanks for keeping us informed and it was nice to see big Carl again 🤣
😎
Love it! I love how detailed his videos are. I'm definetly going to apply all this!
Appreciate it
@@Musformation literally my response was "Holy shit he actually replied to me!" lol
that dijon song in the background is my favourite song right now. i can tell you must know what you're talking about !
Lol amazing record
Lol I just wrote a spotify playlist pitch 😔 wish I could see this video in advance! Oh well maybe the next one
😎
Lets go. Learning so much. You the gr
Thanks so much!
Love your content! You’re the NO BS music guys! 🔥🎶
Hell yeah
Always sensational! Great advice.
Appreciate That
that hat is fire
The band hunny
"I've read your pitches before, and the words coherent or tight don't always come to mind" :D
Lol
Jesse, you the man! One thing I struggle with though...my music is kind of a caricature, an over exaggeration of the rap fan in me, while fully embracing the fact that I'm not very "street", where part of the joke is I'm not actually that good. I tend to interact online in character, over enthusiastic and trying too hard to be something I'm not to the point of being a bit tragic. So my question is, should I pitch in character? Or talk from my own perspective, describing the character? 😕 Staying in character is definitely more fun, but not sure how obvious it would be that it's a front without listening to the music...
Stay in charter
@@Musformation Yes! The fun option :D Thanks for replying man, love your work!
Thanks for making all this content!
🕺🏼
Yo Dijon lowkey put out the best album of 2021
Absolutely incredible record. Incredibly unique to him yet emotionally powerful.
I've heard that it's best not to look for labels and managers as they should come to the artist when the artist's music, socials and community are making a buzz. When should we put effort into finding the right label
Yep focus on you and when the time is right they will find you, you want them to find u not u go to them
So that is good advice BUT if I am being honest when I managed bands all of them asked me and I know a lot of people are the same. I think of it more this way you should try to get in their orbit if theirs a connection. I have a whole video on this I put out this time last year.
@@Musformation going to rewatch that video. thanks. this channel is the best.
@@iamgreatness6649 lets kill it, I am greatness......!
@@Kashimir 😉
Well needed info. More Indie artist should know this for sure
Appreciate that.
Really great. Thanks!
Hey Jesse, love what you are doing here and its guiding me quite a bit. I wondered (after watching many of your videos and starting to implement some of your teachings) if the algorithms and rules you have also work for Europe or the world. Are these guidelines just for the US? Thanks!
Hi Jesse, I’m trying to write an email to a management company but I keep getting stuck on what to write as the subject, any advice? Also love your videos, they’ve helped grow so much in the past 8 months :)
Thanks so much. I think it’s the same idea what’s something exciting you can pitch
Thanks man
🕺🏼
Hi Jesse! Thanks for so much great content. I'm in a band that is about to launch with our first single. We're trying to learn from our previous bands' shortcomings, any insight on how to get off on the right foot with our first single? (We have six ready to roll for the record 😁)
Hell yeah this is actually in a video i have coming in a few weeks but definitely watch that video on choosing a name and the playlist on how to get your music noticed.
@@Musformation done and done! Been making my way through your playlists lately and soaking up as much as I can. It's cool seeing your channel grow as you're giving advice on promotion. Very "proof is in the pudding" 👊
Appreciate that
I literally just got finished writing a pitch lol
🕺
Thoughts on signing with an emerging manager VS an established management company?
Watch my video on finding a manager I discuss this
Anotha oonnee 💎🙏🏽
😎
Hey, I'm a new artist and new to this channel, I am watching all your videos now. I never got this amount of info from a single video of a channel. I have zero fans or they are in single figures. I want to start promote my music but I don't have a label budget. Your videos are really really helpful in taking notes of the important information that is essential for promotion. As of some knowledge I have gained till now is that you can't randomly blow up on any platform until the algorithm pushes it or you get a collab/promotion from a big name in the genre. After watching some of your videos (I know I got a lot to watch still), my question is if I want to grow my audience from 0 and want people to pay attention to my music while sustaining the attention for a long term, what should be the strategy going forward from this point. Thanks, Your info is really help a lot of diy artists and producers and Sorry if My English is not good it's because I don't speak English that often
Appreciate that, that’s really nice of you. 😎 Please email musformation at gmail to talk to the office
Almost there
🕺
Not going to lie, I wasn’t expecting you to recommend Rickrolling managers 5 times a day until they acknowledge you. But if you think it works I’ll give it a try 🤷🏽♂️
Lol
Sounds like writing a letter to the editor for a journal submission. I'm equally bad at that too. 😅 I know why my music excites me, but I'm weird. So articulating that into words that makes others excited or intrigued is tough. "The sound of giant machines dismantling a planet", "music for the age of environmental collapse", "a sound track to exploring the cursed post industrial landscape of north east England" etc. Will have to think more about it cos pitching is a useful skill regardless what your using it for.
Hell yeah! 😎
Shoutout to Dijon’s many times
Makes me get all the feels
How do I pitch to Apple Music
I been missing your battle I wanted to go to
I wanted to ask you a question. Some label got ahold of me in Atlanta, and wanted money down then they will fly me out ( sounds fishy to me )
Dawg that’s the god dam fish market
but perhaps indie musicians should wait as long as possible before looking for a manager... because then they will get a better manager or label... or is it better to find something and then switch later? I truly have no idea...
Let them find u
See it like this getting on the radar of people is good and the sooner the better but not necessarily signing till there’s momentum is best
@@Musformation alright! thanks!!!
@@Musformation sounds like its best to find the right fit/right match in that moment
Whats your opinion on submithub and similar sites?
Hi Jesse, Do you have any advice other than ''quit'' for me I'm 57 and i live in Glasgow Scotland, in my thirties I went to try my hand in Hollywood and i was doing pretty good till two guys had me 5150ed so they could steal my Gibson guitars and other stuff, i found myself penniless and homeless overnight [for four years] now i spend all my time in my home studio writing and recording songs nobody ever hears, I litterally know no people and am stuck in a constant depression,not knowing what to do or if i should even try. but here i am still alive and with good tunes but a bad attitude and ruined confidence. should i just give up on life? i'm lost.
Hey Jesse, is your spreadsheet still available?
www.dropbox.com/s/c4sbdx9p4w7hws0/Your%20Community.xlsx?dl=0
when you’re a cross between kodak black and roddy rich 😂
i always feel like a douche pitching myself lol
We gotta get past that
@@Musformation 1000000%
First!
😎
I wonder how many of our views are just other channels watching one another
I hope we have more than 7 views since there’s only about that many channels or am I missing them?
gettin like 5% seth rogen vibes from you my guy
when i blow up all these people that never responded to my follow up or didnt even bother to checkout the demos i sent, are getting the management email. im petty like that.
Lol
@@Musformation lol im serious. i’m writing it aaaall down 🤪😜
I don't like it how you read everything, but great Info's jo XD
Dawg you have a choice teleprompter or long winded fumbling I don’t know what to tell you
Wouldn't mixing The Cure with Ska just be Bauhaus
You got a point dawg
@@Musformation lol, I'm just being annoying. but the ____ mixed with ska sounds like something I would pitch
Were you in the band Senses Fail? :O
I worked on the production of the record
Jesse Cannon, are you the the kind to be more suspectible to wear a lawsuit than dressing up in court?🛑😂😂 I mean your sort of persuasive like some people in the legal profession😅
That means a lot.
@@Musformation Dawg. I submitted a consultation application, we could use consultation, some might say theres no telling what we can do. Thanks much (applicant name: Daniel Hinton-Morales)
@danielbravo2740 email musformationoffice at gmail and see wassup
I'm not touchn that thumb up...
I‘ve watched this video til the end and all I‘m wondering is why is his nose so stuffed up
This is my natural voice but sure
@@Musformation just joking love your videos
Great information, but is it just me or does he sound like his nose is stuffy😅
Just my natural voice 🤷♂️
