Demo E-mail Etiquette

Fortunately, the digital age of music allows us to send out music in a matter of seconds. However, it’s just as easy to make a fool of yourself in that same small window of opportunity. Here are a few things that can be avoided when sending out demo submission e-mails to labels:

1. Don’t include your bio - It’s likely that whoever is sorting through the e-mails is clicking your link first and quietly ignoring the several paragraphs you felt the need to include. In addition, it’s not necessary to name labels you’ve previously released on or DJs who’ve supported your music. Name-dropping doesn’t help the cause. If the music is good enough, someone will be in touch. If the label is interested, the unnecessary background information included in your body e-mail can be found with a quick Google of your DJ name.

2. Several demos should be submitted with ONE link as a set/playlist - This is one of my personal pet peeves. If you are submitting more than one track, make it neat. It should always be put together as a set/playlist in Soundcloud so there is one link to all of your submissions. Organization goes a long way!

3. Spell the label name properly - It sounds like the first thing someone would think to have correct, but believe me I have seen it happen several times. In relation to this, it’s always nice to include the labels name in the body of your e-mail rather than, “I need a label for my music.” Sometimes it’s the little things that go a long way. It’s a huge turn off to see something so simple, be so wrong. If this is a label you truly follow you should be able to spell it backwards at this point.

4. Leave out words about the track being signed – It’s clear the whole purpose of your submission is because you WANT to have the track signed. It also comes off as, “I think my track is ready to be signed straight away,” as many producers do think. Nothing is perfect and two heads are better than one. There will likely be constructive criticism and editing before it’s ready to go live.

You’re probably wondering, well, what the hell can I include then? Address the label and include your demo link with 1-2 sentences maximum, if any. Less is more in the case of a demo submission, in my opinion. For a more popular label that receives a high volume of demos per day, they want to go straight to the goods, which in this case is the music.

Proud to be an Italian: The DJ/Producer list

It's no secret Italy has bred some of the best names in electronic music. Not to say that it's the only country who ever has, but I'm Italian and I wanted to take note of some exceedingly good artists out there. Whether we're talking past, current or the newer ones who have a bright future ahead, I'm sure this list only just scratches the surface (yes I probably did not hit them all, sorry in advance.)

Each artist has a favorite record(s) listed (it was hard enough to pick one to two) and most have a recent mix to give you a better understanding of the style of the artist if you're unfamiliar. To learn more about the artist, visit their...well I'm sure you know how to do that if you've made it to this post. For now, here are some of the artists who inspire the rest of us music heads of Italian descent:

Dixon @ Output, Electric Zoo After Party - 8/30/13

One main concern came to mind for those of us who didn’t attend Electric Zoo on Friday August 30th: Dixon. Last year, Dixon also played Electric Zoo, yet what was the difference this year? In addition to his festival set, he would finally play an after party (an extended set) at Output in Brooklyn, giving those who couldn’t attend the fest a chance to see him play after all, in a club atmosphere.

Although it was an official after party, it seemed that most who attended weren’t coming from the festival. Palpable, stimulating energy in the club as well as several applauses throughout the night by the crowd fueled the mastermind behind Innervisions and brought a big smile to his face repeatedly.

Dixon had a rather smooth way about him the entire night, starting with his body language and further demonstrated in his musical selection. Being in control of the entire room and most importantly, seeming to enjoy playing there as much as we were enjoying indulging in the soothing dance floor driven sounds he played. One of the many things Dixon showed us throughout his four-hour set Friday night, is how to deliver and experience dance music in a club. Bravo.

To deal with your Dixon withdrawal in the meantime (since he only comes to the states maybe one time a year) here are a few tracks that may ring a bell from Friday and a recent Circoloco Ibiza set:

1. Cajmere feat. Dajae – “Satisfy”

2. Deetron – “Character”

3. Footprintz – “Uncertain Change” (Maceo Plex Reconception Remix)

4. Agoria – “Scala” [Unreleased]

5. The XX – “Reunion” (Ame Remix)

6. Mano Le Tough – “Primative People” (Tale of Us Remix)

7. Mind Against – “Atlant”

8. Jimmy Edgar – “Strike”

9. SBTRKT – “Hold On” (feat. Sampha) [Closing Track]

5. Pig & Dan - Elevate (2013-08-10)

Five reasons Marquee NYC isn't the worst place for a Music On residency:

1. Funktion-One sound system: Dare I say what uproar it would've caused if it were a venue with a shit sound system? Let's be honest there are not many top notch sound systems in Manhattan aside from Cielo which is far too small for this. Marquee's is not to be underestimated despite its physical glamour club appeal.

2. Change of scenery: Too much of anything can be no good in certain instances (unless it's music of course). NYC residents will now have a choice on where to party. Cab/Subway fares certainly add up whether you're going from Manhattan to Brooklyn or vice versa.

3. The crowd will empty out far before the headliner is finished: If you've spent any decent amount of time at all on a Friday at Marquee for the immense amount of headliners Sleepy & Boo are responsible for booking then you should already know unfortunately part of the crowd is there for the party, not the DJ. There's no harm in that. Hell maybe somebody will fall in love with the music just like you did at one point because we all started somewhere right? The real fans will stay till the end so close your eyes, leave your arrogance at the door for the duration and open your ears.

4: No warehouse could hold such a large party weekly without getting busted: Music On at Amnesia in Ibiza isn't exactly quite the low key club so a residency at a place like Marquee doesn't come as a shock. Amnesia has the light, professional dancers and photographers everywhere as does Marquee. Amnesia also only just moved the DJ booth back down to crowd level. Music On takes their parties pretty serious if you take a look at the Ibiza roster or even a YouTube video. In addition along with #1 above, warehouse sound systems also are always sub-par in NY. Who wants to risk a party being shutdown within the first few warm-up hours of a Marco set or fellow Music On artist? Not me.

5. If you can't pay to party, then don't: This is 2013, unfortunately the days of cheap admission in overpriced NY nightlife happen sparingly, if at all. Yes, there are still plenty of underground parties you can attend at a dirt cheap low cost but this is Marco Carola. It's not just him, any of the somewhat larger names usually put a bigger dent in your pocket to see for a bunch of industry reasons we don't need to get into. (By dent I mean anywhere between $40 to $100) Although it's undetermined exactly how much it will be each week, it's better to prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Music On is worth the dent, I promise.
