How do the record business work
Sup
I am working on a project that's about the record business and i wonder if any one have some valid information about the subject like interviews or good web sites that gives a really good picture how the business work not just the major labels but also independent. peace |
they all work like any other business. their revenue has to be greater than their expenses.
steve albini's old rant on the state of modern music is always an interesting read in discussions like this one. The Problem With Music |
You don't think that would be biased, though?

depends on perspective and ideals. the bias in the article is more in regards to how musicians are treated by their labels as opposed to the business model labels actually operate with.
it's kind of like whining about not being able to go to the cops after getting ripped off by your dealer. |

I've always wondered but been reluctant to ask, what is the difference between a major label and indie label? Yes, I know the basics (ans the obvious stuff) but how do they both work differently?

not unlike the way a dealer will always tell his burnouts that they're the coolest, and that they're getting the best stuff for the best price, just for you. it's BS, he's looking out for #1, same as a label. just like you can't go to the cops once you realize you're being ripped off, you can't really fault the label for signing a contract that doesn't cater to your every whim. |

I think it would be interesting if you included how many artists of a certain genre the major record companise signed after that genre took off. For instance, all the emotional punk bands that got signed after the takeoff of Sunny Day Real Estate.
I love the term emotional punk... |
Any updates here? I'm interested in the record business and currently, I'm collecting all the possible info about it.
