    <title>Music Marketing Interview With An Expert</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Music-Marketing-Interview-With-An-Expert</link>
    <description>Hi

I have been working on a hour interview that I had with Kavit Haria who is director of the &lt;strong&gt;Music Mastermind Music Marketing Course&lt;/strong&gt;.

Having been on the BBC in the UK and in various Newspapers I thought Kavit would be an ideal source for &lt;strong&gt;knowledge picking.&lt;/strong&gt;

And so he is. I quizzed Kavit on a number of topics including: hints and tips on blogging, social network sites (which are the best), gigging and alot more.

I collected all the scraps of paper and wrote down everything that Kavit said. 

I have created (The Best Kept) Secrets Of A Music Marketer.

    <description>There are artists that have hit the charts, and do you know what...they are crap...sorry but they are.

I have had enough. I have spotted many artists in those sites past the first 4 pages of Google. 

&lt;b&gt;These artists are good, but they have no-one to help them along...until now.&lt;/b&gt;

I have created a page where I am going to promote those artists that haven't had the break...but they have one factor: they are so cool.

So do you know of an techno artist that is cool, but no one knows of them? Or how about an artist that you can't stop playing?

Or even, do YOU think you are good enough?

Tell us why, show us your tunes...and get promoted and rated.

    <title>How High School Musical Can Change Your Music...Part 2</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#How-High-School-Musical-Can-Change-Your-Music...Part-2</link>
    <description>Ok, I am digging a little grave for myself now. But I am determined to be big and strong about this.

Music can be found anywhere. Enrique Iglesias made &quot;Do You Know&quot; also known as the ping-pong song because of the ping pong drum beat. The Prodigy and &quot;Speedway&quot; making a track from fast car sounds. The Art Of Noise with most of their music. And High School Musical with &quot;Get Your Head In The Game&quot; using basketball squeeks to start a track. Clever music.

Go outside, find inspiration, find something not used. Music inspiration can come from anywhere and it is begging you to find it.

&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/A_rTtt18OrQ&amp;rel=1&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/A_rTtt18OrQ&amp;rel=1&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;</description>

    <title>How High School Musical Can Change Your Music</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#How-High-School-Musical-Can-Change-Your-Music</link>
    <description>I am admitting this now. My wife forced me to watch high school 1 and 2. But apart from the predictable (and similar plot) they had one thing in common:

&lt;b&gt;Fantastically catchy music&lt;/b&gt;.

I am out of my niche area but listening to teen music makes you realise that you need so many hooks and high pitched noises to cater for that group- keeping them entertained is such a big factor.
Also I have picked up great ideas, hook ideas and a slightly newer dimension to my music...which is Techno/Rave stylee :)

Cartoon music is the same. There is no build up. It needs to be quick, have multi-hooks, be rememberable and stick like glue in your mind. Just like kickin' chart music- check out the Inspector Gadget music for a good example.

    <title>Ultimate Viral Music</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Ultimate-Viral-Music</link>
    <description>To create the greatest music and to get the best downloading chances your music has to be in the same vein as what people like, but with a small twist.

Now Devin Townsend has done just that. He has made some great metal tracks (I know this is not techno, but it evidences a point) but added a really good twist. He had made Ziltoid, a character that twists into his songs.

Great fun, and slight genius as well.

Why?

The guy has increased his audience, even the ones who didnt like metal music. Now that is twisting and doing something different in a very cluttered genre. 

&quot;This album is actually just as addictive as coffee.&quot;
&quot; this album kicks ass&quot;
&quot;So who do we bug to make Ziltoid action figures? I want one! :)&quot;
86,488 views on one video...so far. I know people who have bought the album, and got the ringtones...great stuff.

    <description>I am on a roll with this classical rant. I have found a few classicals that you should listen to...all the way through (you will be very surprised). They are just great. They have passion, and some great hooks that could be made dancy. Check them out.

&lt;b&gt;&lt;p&gt;Crimson Tide Theme&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/yLTCgpFW9nw&amp;rel=1&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/yLTCgpFW9nw&amp;rel=1&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Rock - Hummel Gets The Rockets&lt;/b&gt;

    <title>Classical Downfall?</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Classical-Downfall?</link>
    <description>Following on very lightly from the previous article, I just read that classical music is starting to go down, and Sony has shut down its classical department.

Are they completely barking?

Using the War of the Worlds as an example, you will find the reviews in Youtube great. Over 170 ratings (for one clip), all clips 4 stars and this &quot;Nothing short of electrifying!! Wow!&quot;, &quot;sooper!!! bravo!!! great!!!i love it :)&quot;

People want to hear something cool, not stuffy (the perceived image of classical)- also highlighted with Vanessa Mae. Also they want a show, something they can relate the music to.

If classical is dying then unfortunately it is their own fault. Jeff Wayne and Vanessa Mae has proved that just by reworking music you can capture an audience with ease.

Just try. See what William Orbit did with Barbers Adagio For Strings:

    <title>Get Better Music Now?</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Get-Better-Music-Now?</link>
    <description>I have recently not bought downloads or bought any new CD dance/electro/etc for one simple reason...

I am having trouble finding anything good.

I regularly download unsigned/free music because it is alright. But I haven't found anything commercial that is worth it.

I am starting to find that music is becoming too samey. Buy one dance tune and it sounds like any other dance tune.

Why can't musicians start to listen to other things apart from each other?

To put a stop to this I am now listening to RnB (Skee-Lo, &quot;I Wish&quot; is cool) and some decent classical (check out the link below for a great track, listen past the start speech).

&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/W8JLqsbK5V0&amp;rel=1&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/W8JLqsbK5V0&amp;rel=1&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;355&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;

By incorporating other styles into our music we can slowly become different. If you listen to rock and techno, incorporate the two.

Try and be different, and stand out from the rest.</description>

    <title>Koopa...Fantastic or plain Kooky?</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Koopa...Fantastic-or-plain-Kooky?</link>
    <description>The first time, an unsigned act (Koopa) has been signed to a record label after getting into the UK charts (number 31) from downloads only.

Now, see why I think this is not as good as you may think.</description>

    <title>Is New Software Needed?</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Is-New-Software-Needed?</link>
    <description>It is a wonder why we should buy something new, a newer version of a bit of software.

Ok, I bought Ableton a year or two back...great bit of software (for mixing/remixing) but what is the &lt;b&gt;real point&lt;/b&gt; of Ableton 6 and 7? 

You buy Ableton for the mixing part really...so why the constant new software if you are used to the version you have and it does what you want it to do? 

Also Reason 4...why have it? If Reason 3 is good enough why shell out for number 4?

Sure 4 has the Thor synth, but users will pillage its presets and then they will all sound the same (possibly the reason why there are Reason Refills out and about).

Are these true new software or really pretty upgrades that should be added onto the main software?

So for $150-$399 you can get Reason 4, or a quick glance on ebay and you have reason 3 for $50-80? Then get a cool DVD for teaching you how to use it (as the manual is pretty poor), say 
&lt;a href=&quot;http://musicbooksplus.com/product_info.php?ref=435&amp;products_id=8139&amp;affiliate_banner_id=1&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Reason 3.0 In-Depth Beginner Level DVD&lt;/a&gt; for $40 and you are still within budget.

Just a thought.</description>

    <title>Mine Is Better Than Yours...No Mine Is</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#Mine-Is-Better-Than-Yours...No-Mine-Is</link>
    <description>I have subscribed to a music magazine, one which is purely for money musicians (musicians who have enough money to buy all of the software that their tutorials comprise of).

Anyway, one letter writer stated that they went onto...Logic, if I remember, because their idol was using it. The problem being that they found it confusing and problematic?!

This goes on from the previous post, just because someone else uses a software (probably for a long time) doesn't mean that you will like it. 

Find out using demos what you think a software app is like, try it out...then try it out some more. Have a look for upgrades (i.e Reason Refills)...check out price as well.

See how you like the tool that you use. I like Trackers only because in my eyes they are the easiest way to make music. I can not get used to music making with Cubase or Reason. Ableton is alright. Drop and drag wav/ mp3 forms...simple.

Dont use a software because someone else is using it, look at all the options. Also as a side issue, using the same &quot;production tools&quot; as an artist will make you sound like them rather than sounding like your own self.</description>

    <title>How A Car Can Help Us In Music</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#How-A-Car-Can-Help-Us-In-Music</link>
    <description>I didnt realise that cars are made without indicators. This morning in the heavy rain, alot of indicators didn't work and it was a cool game to figure out where people were going.

So what has that got to do with music making? Well FL Studio, Reason, Cubase are all the same if you took them apart. They have to be, so that people who know the type of interface can jump from one to the other, easily.

But it is because they are alike they have the same features (give or take a cool synth). If someone makes music with Reason but saw their fav musician with Fl Studio and swapped, they are still going to be in the same boat. 

Therefore in alot of cases, the only reason that a specific musician is any good is because they know their software...thoroughly. 

Get to know the package upside down and inside out. 

Becoming a Grand Master of a package will make you a much better musician than if you had the best software around. 

Know your software and find those indicators!</description>

    <title>How To Be Better Than Anyone In Music</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#How-To-Be-Better-Than-Anyone-In-Music</link>
    <description>If I made a Beatles track people might like it, however they will also compare me to them and I will always be in their shadow.

So the best way for my music to shine is be similar, however I would add an extra twist.

You see music making is all about what people like and what they have heard countless times before. The best are the best because they are good at being different...that is all. They are the same as you and me, but they chose to make music that goes one further.

Genre defining now is silly and shouldnt be done. The best musician will be a mish mash of a couple of styles...get liked by both camps = double audience and sounds different.

So do that today. Make a techno rock track, make a techno ethnic track. Make something different.</description>

    <title>How To Make A Mint Without Labels</title>
    <link>http://www.make-your-own-dance-and-techno-songs.com/make-your-own-techno-songs-blog.html#How-To-Make-A-Mint-Without-Labels</link>
    <description>Labels haven't got the idea yet that &lt;b&gt;CDs don't sell&lt;/b&gt;. Ahh well, their loss. Because when they do sell online they sell at the same price...bad news and an increase of file sharing is guranteed.

Instead think of your prize commodity (your fans...&lt;b&gt;nothing else&lt;/b&gt;) as being people who like you and will make you.

Once you got your subscribers up and going sell them a &lt;b&gt;digital download&lt;/b&gt; album for $1 (anywhere above that is suicide), with video footage/ extra stuff.

Oversell and reward...then watch the money and respect come in droves.</description>
