Promoting Ourselfs

Hi there buddies

I'm Passie ,Just joined the team here
And i got some ideas that i want to share with you here

I have been a musician for a long time
But i always hesitated with putting my songs online
Tools like SOUNDTAP can easyly record the stream that commes from the player
So i always looked at it as giving away songs
But grew over that fear at last

We play it at 192 and sell it at 320 so the bitrate difference is pretty big
I would even play it at 160 but 192 is ok for me aswell

Well i started thinking about the whole net lable setup
And i figure that we can make it something good if we are smart
But the only way to do that is if we promote the heck out off ourselfs
So all ways to vibe up the interest in the site are welcome i thought

A friend has offered me to build a videoclip to put on youtube
He is a cameraman at a known tv station here and he likes dance music
So he is planning to make a video while ski diving
Then we put some music behined it and drop it on you tube
Including a link to the site where they can buy the song
That will shure attract some actionfreaks to the site

Off course there will be a low quality audiofile on the video or a mix
We are still in the beginning phase of it
The camera m8 came up with the ski diving idea yesterday
But i think that could be good for us
Action Sports vs Our Action Music
Who knows Sportlive might even rent us to do a comercial if they like it

Which other ways do we have to promote ourselfs and the site
I think it would be good to make a list then all of us can help if we want
Many hands make a big job smaller and we all profit from it
So why not help promoting if you got the time

Yups, any promotion helps us...

Don't worry about the previews, they are 192, yes... but they are cut to show only the main part of the track and I put a D|Dance jingle over all of them, so in my opinion it's pointless to rip them.

For that vid, sure! Go for it, use a 160 or 192.. doesn't matter, you can always put something over it for a second or 2 that makes the file useless to rip.

The most loss is made from people buying a release and then sharing it, or scene rips. But lets not forget: we're in it for the promotion more than the money, right?


If you have ANY ideas for further promotion, or know any websites / magazines that do reviews, please post here in this thread... The more the better Or know any DJ's that are quite known that could play our tracks, tell them to play / rate / review it

Good luck to us all!

Check INgrooves

That might be the perfect shopsystem for DDance to join
They can put our music on itunes sales and about 200 others as well
DDance has a good forum with a very busy releases info section
I bet InGrooves would love to be in there to to give info on their sales
The list is already visited a lot so that will be atractive for InGrooves

And all the other InGrooves visitors are interesting for DDance
We will get more visitors here so the site can get more income by the advertisers
And the DDance label will get more sales sites to promote its producers

DDance has a lot to offer so why wouldn't we make use of that
Now we lose out on a lot cos we don't make use of our chances
I don't know how DDance is setup in organization
But now it looks a bit like we got 3 separated parts in one organization

1-The radio streamer
2-The label
3-The new releases listings

If you see all together then its a very good promotional chance
And i'm sure InGrooves would love to benefit from that as well
So its good for all parts of DDance as more visitors mean more advertising income for the stream too

Greets Passie

More sellers

I got in contact with a distributor [not ingrooves]
And they got a lot more places where we can sell our music

I can join the distributor with DDance or i have to setup my own label to join them myself
If DDance is interested to join give me a mail or chat [rydel]
And we can check if their deal is interesting for DDance

They will listen to our music and then make the choice on which sellers they'll promote us
But as you can see they have a lot of places to host our material
