To land a record deal, you must submit your songs to the right people. Your submission should be relevant to the label’s style and genre. It should also be personal to the label. Your contact details should be correct and the music must be compatible with the label’s demo policy. Your electronic press kit should be updated and formatted appropriately. To make your music stand out among hundreds of other submissions, you should do some research.

While the record label might be friendly, remember that you are submitting your music to a business. This way, you can send your music in a professional and efficient manner. Remember to follow the label’s guidelines so that you can increase your chances of landing a record deal.

Upon receiving your music submission, make sure that your track has been properly edited. Do not include the original versions of your songs if they were edited or remastered. They may also be too long to download. If the label does respond, it is usually because they have been receiving many submissions. You should therefore check this carefully before submitting your music to a label. After you have received their email, you can exchange contact details and follow up.

After you have gathered all of the required information regarding the record label, the next step is to select the appropriate medium. For instance, some people choose using email since it is easier to organise and does not include any distractions. If, on the other hand, you choose Soundcloud, you should send your song or track in the format that it was originally created in. 

The foundation of any submission should be a demo of the submitted music. You should also think about uploading the music or song that you have created on the internet. You can seek the advice of an expert and ask for assistance if you are unsure about whether or not you should send your music videos or songs.

Even though you should never submit record companies your demos before they have been mastered by a professional, record labels do not anticipate that your songs will sound as though they were recorded in studios. Demos that were recorded on your mobile device can be sent out, but you should make every effort to avoid utilising autotune on the vocals if you can. This practise is entirely fine. It is ultimately up to you to resubmit your music to the record labels that previously turned down your demos. The feedback you seek on your music might not come for a number of months or even years.

Sending your music to record labels in the hopes of earning a recording contract is your best bet if you are an independent musician. If you are an independent musician, you should do your homework on the record label that you want to sign with to make sure that you are a good fit for the company. 

Even while sending your demo to unsigned record labels is never a surefire approach to get a record deal, there are several things you can do to boost the likelihood that a company would want to work with you. Make sure that your demo has been properly mastered and that it does not include any copyright restrictions before sending it.
