Hi and welcome to our "Music business, and other information" website.

This site is for "starting" songwriters with information and resources concerning song writing and music industry. The main purpose of this web site is to help songwriters, and anyone else who wants to try it in the music.

Most of the songwriters have the same dream. They all wanna make it big in the music . Because I'm a songwriter also I'll pas you on all the information that I've gathered through the years.

All the aspects of the business that could matters for you and that could bring you closer to achieve your final goal: Having a contract signed! I suppose that's the goal of every songwriter, isn't it ?

How hard is it to make a break through in the music industry?

True, it's a business like any other but much harder and difficult to make a breakthrough. With millions of artists world wide the competition into the music business is utterly fears.

There are five big Major record labels , but when you just starting these are too difficult to get a signed deal( at the moment).

Independent record labels!

For instants, in the UK alone there are a few hundreds independent labels, and music publishing companies.

In the US there are more then 11000 indie labels.(When I may believe the indie bible of record labels).

Even if you think that's is a large number, the chances to get a record deal or a publishers deal a rather small. However,the ones who getting signed are considered as the lucky ones. As we all know very well, success in songwriting and fortune walks hand in hand.

But don't under estimate the "work" in the music business branch. Every day long hours working with little or no sleep and a lot of stress. That counts for every one: artist and the employees in the record companies.

On the other-hand , true, it's a great job, and a great life. You meet interesting people and if you play it well the financial rewards are huge . Hit songs making millions of dosh. But even without a super hit you can make money , of course, as an Independent artist.

Anyway..This site is plenty with music business related and songwriting resources.Just surf around . Keep in mind what is useful to you, and delete the rest.. The right knowledge, and information is the key to success for songwriting beginners..

True! Not everyone will or can win the battle, but if you really love what you are doing. It's fun, so you never can loose, are you?
