Getting Signed?

IP: 0352 9EFC

I see all these threads talking about how people got deals and shit, but how? I mean seriously, how do these people even get heard of? I'm not trying to talk shit, or call people liars for saying they are signed, I'm just trying to figure out what people do to try to get heard....

.....you can even respond if you are just trying to get heard, but not currently signed to anything.

Just send demo tapes to numerous lablels (sometimes it works)
Get off the net,go to some local battle spots .
Find some clubs that may be hosting some battles or open mic (producers be there)
Always keep some of your work (recorded) with you,just incase ...

Just some shit,i do ... It all paid off ...

By the way.......CONGRATS!!!!!! *throws confetti and blows kazoo*

dont take rv so seriously. That way you will put more effort into your recording.Sit back and actually think logically about what local label's are possible for you to sign to.
The people who are using all thre shit on rv most proberly wont get signed to quickly.
Im recording with a couple guy's from my local. But I am yet to post any audio on rv. Simply because it is less important to me.
I would rather lock my shit down distibute it to a few company's then post a few in soundclick for rv to listen to.because no1 from rv can or will sign me, unless they offer me airfare's and a place to live. But who is gonna take that risk with some1 thru the internet???? So 70% a my time is recording and writing for local record company's, Then in a short while Ill let rv hear what i have to offer.
I may just record a few tracks especially for rv.
...(not to sure if im topic but...blaH

Yeah.....thanks for the info. I just use this site as a way to elevate until I feel I'm good enough to go to record companies. How do you find local recording companies anyway?
