What Else Can You Do In The Music Industry Besides Singing?

Being a Musician isn’t your only option you know

Have you ever wished you could be a part of the music industry even though you don’t have the voice to be a musician? Well, guess what, there is hope and a whole lot of options for you that doesn’t involve having a great voice for singing.


Music Manager

If you are good in handling people and are very much organized and tough, then this might just be the perfect fit for you. As a manager, you will be the mouth piece and the go-to of the artists; you must be actively involved in the life of the artist, his career and down to when he/she sleeps at night. This role gives you the opportunity to work with the music you love, and although, hitting it big might be excruciatingly slow, but if your artists is an upcoming one and finally hits it, your pay day has only just begun.

Start a Label

Don’t be scared, it is not as scary as it sounds. You can actually start a record label with limited start-up capital, all you need to go on, is to research as much as possible on seminars, books, online classes and YouTube for materials on record label in general, to familiarize yourself with the business procedures and strategies. Although you won’t start making money immediately, just like it takes time for an artist to blow, it’s the same with you. You must be ready and willing to put in the work, invest a lot financially and passionately, into every part of the music and you will definitely see profit as you arm yourself with organizational and promotional skills.

Music Distributor

This role requires a lot of information passing around with you being in the center of the loom with record labels, music stores etc. It means you have to know everything first, like when there are new albums coming out, latest trends and releases even before they are released. Most times you might not like the music, but you just have to make sure it gets out and then deal with logistics, and unforeseen challenges with sales and packaging involving the music distribution. As a music distributor,

Music Agent

It is a tough ship to steer, but it has its pros. Your work involves working round the clock with labels, music managers, bands, groups and even promoters to organize shows, gigs and activities that would put your artist out there in the market without being a victim to the politics of the trade like promoters.

Profit comes with lots of patience and hard-work but eventually, once you have become a name to be associated and acknowledged, then you are good to go.

Sound Engineer

This is a pretty exciting role as it puts you in the midst of shows, tours and the very core of the entertainment industry with the artists. If you are a technical person, then this is a perfect fit for you. You have to be pretty creative with delivering sound quality even if you have to work with bad tools, your pay depends on how good you are and your reputation.

Cover-Art Graphics Designer

You have to be a pretty good creative artist to land this role. You are responsible for creating the visual element of the album. That is a huge responsibility to shoulder, as great image is as important as the music, and gives the music an identity. If you have the passion and not the skills, or you have the skills and want to improve, you can visit www.cefliximages.com they provide the best designs and opportunities that leave you designing like a pro, with no training or cut throat cost.

So much more to do without necessary having a good singing voice, these are just to whet your appetite and to let you know there are so much more you can be without being a musician.

Sensational gospel music diva and award-winning minister, Lydia Kabasele, popularly known as Lydia Kabs, isn’t letting her fans and supporters down as she releases the latest single, “My Purpose,” with her signature tunes and beautifully crafted lyrics.

SELF-RELEASING YOUR ALBUM

Have you ever been faced with rejections from record labels and music managers, you became frustrated, and even started doubting your musical talent?

Then maybe it’s time you released your own album yourself. Don’t get it twisted, self-releasing your album is a great way to get yourself out there but don’t for one second think that it’s a walk in the park.

There are a lot of obstacles to face, and we are glad to walk you through the challenges you are likely to face as you embark on this jolly good ride…

Production Cost – Oh Yes! This is the very first giant you will have to slay, and without the support of a record label to handle the costs and distribution with the manufacturing companies, you are likely to slay it on your own!  Producing an album isn’t cheap, and if you are not a known artist, manufacturers won’t readily offer credit services to you. Luckily, sites like CeFlix Tunes, cdbaby, etc offer amazing deals to stream and release your music and album without hassles.

Distribution – Online distribution is the way to go and streaming services like CeFlix Tunes, Amazon Music, boomplay, Apple Music, etc, offer distribution services with fair enough royalties and even free services as in the case with CeFlix Tunes. You can get the best deals from these platforms to push your music and send them out to the global audience and music stores.

Promotion – Hiring a PR company is a sure bet, but you might not have such a budget as an independent artist. Your next option is to pair yourself up with a platform that offers such services and are affordable. CeFlix Tunes offers aggressive promotional services and even has a Non-Stop music channel that you can get unlimited 24/7 airplay for your song.

Start Right

This is probably your first rodeo and you don’t have any form of press coverage or fans. Begin small! Create a website if you don’t already have one or create a blog, like it be like your Head Quarters where fans and labels can find you. If you don’t know how to do it, join a streaming platform and let them create a profile for you. Streaming services like boomplay, iTunes, CeFlix Tunes, etc, offer these services.

Remember, don’t stop writing and making good music, the next hit is one song away.

How To Get Your Songs On A Radio playlist

As an artist, your dream is to get your music played on the radio because radio stations still control a very large number of listeners and fans even in today’s world where access to music, live streaming, and songs on demand, are as easy as owning a Smartphone.

Getting your song on the airways and securing a spot on a radio playlist might look or sound easy, but in reality, it is not as easy as it sounds, especially for low budget independent artists outside a major record label.

There are basic steps to undertake before you decide to go full blast on your radio promotions and plans, especially if you want to tune into your favorite radio station and hear your music playing on the stereo system.

How to Put Your Songs On Air:;

  • Know Your Contact

Search the website on Google, or get the contact of the DJ, station’s producer or music director, it’s difficult in some cases, nevertheless, go at it the old fashioned way, go there live and simply ask.

  • Know how to get your music on the platform

DJs and stations have a particular format they receive submissions and demos, most prefer digital format. Make researches to find out what the station requires and send the links to your best tracks, not mp3 files, with your blogs or press publications attached.

  • Contact The Right Stations

Don’t go for the biggest and best radio station, because they are highly competitive as thousands of other artists are trying to beat you to it. Go for smaller stations and genre-specific stations, they won’t be swamped with demos like the bigger stations.

  • Make Noise Around the Music

There is no other way to say this, just go out there and make noise, create excitement around your music and force the stations to notice. Put your music on reputable platforms like CeFlix Tunes, boomplay, etc and don’t stop making fantastic music.

  • Get A Radio Promoter

If you are overwhelmed with making music, get a third party to get take your song to the radio station. These promoters have inside information with radio stations and DJ’s, contact info@ceflixtunes.com if you need assistance with getting your songs on our Non-stop music channel.

Never give up, consistency and persistence will definitely get you noticed.
