@arcadiadragoons5467 2 жыл бұрын
thanks for all this! question, if I own the composition 100% but the producer who was part of the song with owns 15% of the masters and i own the other 85%, what do I do to become a one-stop shop, do i need to own 100% to be able to use it in sync?
@MakeMusicIncome 2 жыл бұрын
Well, the producer would be part of the deal since he owns 15% of the master. Sync royalties go to the master owner(s) and PRO royalties go to the writer/publishers. In this case you could still be “one stop” you’d just have to have the producer on board with you making decisions on the song. One stop means they don’t have to check with anyone else and can trust YOU ONLY to make the decisions without having to check with anyone else.

Questions in this video you said not to send it out to too many libraries, and keep it to like 4 at a time..I assumed this is for people who are trying to get into Exclusive libraries....does it apply if I'm targeting non exclusive libraries?
@MakeMusicIncome Жыл бұрын
No you can absolutely send as much as you are allowed to non-exclusive libraries.
@mwmcbroom 2 жыл бұрын
I'm puzzled. You draw a distinction between artists who write and composers. Well, geez, I don't know where I fit in. I write music, but I also compose music. I'm not sure if I know what the difference is. A clarification would help.
@MakeMusicIncome 2 жыл бұрын
Well I think many of us are both right, but I know some songwriters who would never think of themselves as a composer say of film music, or orchestral scores. And I know composers who think writing music for “songs” with lyrics is totally a foreign experience for them (unless it’s opera, and even then they often bring in a librettist.) But ARTISTS who write are a completely different breed and may think of themselves as a songwriter, but again most likely not a composer in the classical sense, or even someone who would make cues for advertising or instrumentals for licensing.

Question. Is there a service that I can put my music on where I can post a link to my music on (not sound cloud). If you were a Sync Library - I want one link I can send to you and you hear my music only.

Disco is like a more secure SoundCloud, but it is $10/mo. SoundCloud also has a private option, but you may get advertisements on a free plan.

@MakeMusicIncome 2 жыл бұрын
I mean it’s pretty simple. A short to the point email with a link to SoundCloud or a DISCO link. You don’t need to talk about your music in life experiences or anything like that. Just a line about how you found the library, that you think you might be a good fit, and you’d love it if they would take a listen to your music at this link. And then leave the link to SoundCloud or DISCO.

I'm curious what the advent of AI generated music in the past few months has on the ideas introduced here.
@MakeMusicIncome 2 ай бұрын
I took another look and to be honest I don’t think AI will immediately affect music supervisors, sync agents, or music libraries right now. All three of those STILL and more than ever are looking for talented and authentic music by humans. Sure there may be calls for AI music, but they don’t want user generated stuff anymore than I do from students when they turn in ChatGPT text. If you produce only MIDI pack and Loop-Based music, then yeah you may be at risk to be replaced by AI. But not session players and human vocalists who have style.

I understand you said you don’t have much experience with this but later in the video when you were talking about how they love artists who write, I wondered if you’d heard any names pop up that would be good to reach out to? Thanks I’m advance 🤍
