10 Ways To Get Your Music Heard in 2024

Definitely enjoy the long for so much good info and refreshers

This was amazing information. I have a friend who has an interesting bio.
But he is concerned about his age. He comes from a father who was in the music industry and has since passed.

My new friend is amazing and
Very gifted but doesn't seem to be able to fly or present as himself.

I think he said he had over 50 songs written. He has an amazing voice and a natural ability to write. He has been singing And performing since he was 8. At least 50 years. I spiritually connected with him recently and I can see one of his songs being part of a soundtrack for a movie with a good message. Or perhaps even being a song for an International charitable organization. At this time I don't understand fully. Why he hasn't gone for it, especially with his family roots in music.
And his ability and talento write sing and play instruments. Very personable very charismatic human. I think I overwhelm him which i do not want to do.

I sent him your link to this awesome New Year 2024 focus.

Thank you for making this and I will look forward to listening to more of your sharing.

I listened to your entire post every word ❤

U won a subscriber 💯u got game my boy

Thanks Damian, it was an interesting watch indeed. To the last point, I didn't pull my music (have releaesd music under 3 different names), but did cancel my subscription and switch to a different streaming platform for my own listening. I was debating not releasing the singles initially to spotify until I had an album and use the other platforms for singles. I may still do that as an experiment and can always adjust later.

Really enjoyed this. Style was really similar to how you share info with us in the DKMBA lives. 👍 Thanks again! And Happy New Year! :)

Spotify is Screwing the Small artists to pay the big artists...we should all ditch them instead..

What is pre-save?

Very informative – thank you!

Thanks a lot unc.

Yes, Damian, the content was awesome! Please do more long-form. 😊

If you like Horror movies and Rap. You'll appreciate what I do.

anyone able to market music and see results, is a real ninja, I work in advertising and one of the most challenging to see results is the music industry (usually cause the budgets are so low)

there needs to be a filtering system.

very very nice! thanks for the video.

Spot on. Shared to FB.

yayy long form content

How much does spotify pay you to shill their hogging all the money in the industry as a good thing?

I don’t think it changed I think they tightened up on keeping underground artist out

@1Eyedjack I’m a great artist

Dig the long form content Damien 👍

This video is very informative to any artist trying to figure out there options for what path or strategy to employ,,, Extraordinary by Design insights!!!

helped me out

Finally, a marketing expert who doesn’t use marketing jargon, but speaks in a clear manner. There’s so much contradictory and vague advice out there so this is such a breath of fresh air. Thank you

He sounds desperate! Anyone who sells and over sells an idea and name drops like him / you is desperate lol !!

Yes, sir, good idea. I watched the whole video even though I'm not sure everything was for me. Or maybe it was?

Thanks for your advices to get more pre saves. It seems a lot of effort is needed for this. My question considering that is, what are the benefits for me as an artist, to get many pre saves. Are they so important for spotify's algorithm?

Damian in answer to your question, personally I enjoyed the 'less choppy' video however, I am not a regular watcher of your content and wasn't aware of your 'choppier' videos. I tend to enjoy these longer videos so this one made me a subscriber. Thank you for sharing this!

Record labels sign the song not the artist

What is you suggestion för a producer? Your focus is very much on artists, how to make short 15 seconds tictoc videos, miming to your latest song. But how to market oneself as producer/writer? Someone like David Guetta, Avicii, Martin Garrix, Tiesto, etc. They must have started somewhere. They don’t sing or perform, they write the tracks and the lyrics, find a suitable singer and produce the track. They stream millions for each track they release. Pretending to mime to your latest track in the sunset would be embarrassing. How to use tictoc to get noticed as a producer/songwriter in 2024?

yeah i enjoy this long form content!

Hey Damian. Very Helpful. Thank you for this video. I enjoyed the hour to really dive into each question and answer. Please create more videos like this :-)

Thanks Damian. Love the long form, clear, unedited video. I find the choppy short cuts very distracting.

I think your long version videos are really helping the artist promote...they have to dedicate the time to really listen! I refer your videos to many indie musicians! THANKS!

I liked the long format. I listen while coding at work so it's nice to have something interesting that plays a long time. Once every two weeks?

Hey Damian, I'm an individual musician and I want want to thank you you start from the base!

Really enjoyed this mate. All points I’ve been incorporating into my release and discovery (aka Marketing 😱) strategy. Would love to buy you a brew or coffee and chat. I live in Nashville.

I just got a message from TikTok 5 minutes ago, saying that their algorithm changed again. Normally I don't be getting messages like that, but this time I did.

Great video let’s work!

What is presave

Absolutely class video! Breaking it down to the finest details and most importantly, to the areas that need action and persistence.

Love the detail off the video and very inspiring. Much love brotha

I really enjoyed the podcast like filming. I think it’s easy to listen to without the cuts, and feels more like a conversation. I was able to work on editing and learn at the same time so thank you

This video is more helpful than spotify blog posts about releases ahahha, great video thanks for the advice 🙏

I enjoyed that! Quite literally a fireside chat. I am seated by the fire on a Friday night and, since i am considering releasing some more music and questioning what/how I am doing it, it was so relevant & engaging.. You have covered a lot of areas and answered a lot of my questions. It is such an ever-changing minefield & it is good to be able to connect with someone who is ' on the ball.' I loved the long form content as I felt I could settle into it. Thank you so much or your ongoing content, as a small artist, trying to work professionally, albeit at a 'hobby' level, you really have helped me so much so far.

Thank you for your video. I appreciated hearing your thoughts on each of these subjects - all so important to those of us balancing between continually growing as an artist and also getting our music out to the world, with a goal of it becoming an income stream.

Amazing, thank you!

By the way I do like the long form content, it helps to lengthen my attention span. Staring into the sun can cause blindness
