==========================================================================================

 

For Beginners 

 

What do I need to become a music artist?
You need to learn: Music Theory. At least the basics: Chords, scales, chord progression, harmony, tempo, tims signatures. Music composition. These days most producers double as composers. Recording techniques. Learn how to record whichever live instruments you plan to use.

 

Is 25 too old to start a music career?
 
When running a studio or any other kind of business these kinds of skills are crucial when it comes to actually being successful. In short, there is no age that is too early or too late to start a career in music. If you love music and want to start doing it professionally, don't let anything stop you! 
 

 

Why do most artists quit?
 
It's almost never because they weren't good enough. Most artists quit because they expect results too fast. They think their first year should bring sales, recognition, or a style that magically falls into place.
 

 

Why do artists stay single?
 
Some artists just have a passion for freedom and untethered expression, characteristics that do not align with marriage. They may prefer multiple, less serious relationships throughout their lives. Others live alternative lifestyles make it hard to form serious bonds. Artists might pretend to be single to appeal to a wider audience, especially young fans who may be more receptive to an artist who seems available, or to maintain a mystique, which can be a deliberate part of their public persona and creative strategy. Other artists may also value solitude and freedom for their creativity and choose relationships that don't align with traditional marriage, sometimes preferring less serious or diverse romantic connections. 

 

 

 

 

The Right Way to Start from Scratch My Way 

 

Get your music on Spotify

 

1. Open up a Personal  Spotify Account I say it is Important that you only Stick to one Email account Why! well this is my Way! and here is my Reason's why! It's not strictly necessary to use only one email address for all music distribution, but using a dedicated email for your music career is highly beneficial for organization and professionalism. A single, professional email address keeps your music business separate from your personal life, streamlines communication with distributors, and enhances your brand's consistency. This makes it easier to track releases, manage fan inquiries, and present a unified professional image to the music industry. 

 

2. When Opening up a Personal Account on Spotify it is Important that you make up Playlist belong to other Artists you follow 

for Example I create Techno and Trance Music I follow (Techno Music) Charlette De Whitte & Amelie Leans

(Trance Music) Paul van Dyk & Armin Van Bruuen Why! When becoming an artist, following other artistshelps you discover trends, network, and inspire your work, but authentic engagement is crucial for building a genuine fanbase and gaining visibility. Instead of superficial "follow for follow" tactics, like, comment on, and share the work of similar artists to attract their fans, collaborate with them, and stay informed on new ideas within the music community. Also Some Music 

Distributor's may Ask you to name 3 other Artists that have Similar Music to yours.

Spotify for Artists Account NOW YOU HAVE A PROBLEM (I have No Music Distributed) No, you cannot open a Spotify artist account without releasing music through a distributor first. A Spotify artist profile is created automatically when your music is uploaded, so you must work with a music distributor like TuneCore, CD Baby, or Vampr to get your music onto the platform before you can claim and manage your artist page on NOW you can afford to Subscribe to TuneCore, CD Baby, or Vampr
