The Underdog Vs The Music Industry: Radio Airplay For Sale

By admin on June 11, 2010

Before I start, Here is a breakdown of the players involved in radio airplay (Pay For Play).

*Record Company:
A company that makes and sells musical recordings

*Radio Promoter:
The main function is to get airplay for the performer’s latest release. This is usually accomplished by contacting primary and secondary radio stations in each market, making sure they have a copy of the release and urging them to give the recording a chance to be heard by the local listening audience. Over time, competent radio promoters build up relationships with station managers, deejays, and others who are involved in the decision of what songs to play or not play.

*Radio Station Program Director:
In radio, a program director is the person who develops or selects some or all of the content that will be broadcast. A program director’s selections are based upon expertise in the media as well as knowledge of the target demographic. Typically, a program director decides what radio program will be broadcast and when.

The program director played my song and said that it was a hit. However, the song would not get played on the radio without a payment.

By admin on July 26, 2009

Recording artist Terrance Day is in the process of breaking a new record (no pun intended). His goal is to sell 1,000,000 copies of the new independent CD “A Simple Life”. This is being done through his own popular web site MakeMusicHistory.com

He is offering free permanent web exposure to each “Official Sponsor” and “Supporter”. The site steadily receives more web site visitors each day. Terrance said, “traffic is coming in from all over the world every hour”.

Individuals, families, businesses owners, and organizations can be part of making music history! Everyone who supports this effort with a CD purchase receives a permanent place on the web site. Their name and link are added to the “Official Sponsor” or “Supporter” page online. During the official launch this week, MakeMusicHistory.com has received more than 92,000 unique visitors.

“The web site was developed over a period of a few months”, said Terrance. He has been making his own web sites since 2000 after he left his last corporate job as a Tech Recruiter. This web site seems to be destined to be his most popular web site so far.

“Clear Channel owns all the major radio stations and venues. Most musicians aren’t aware that few people control so much of what we hear” says Susan Tedeschi, a Berklee College of Music graduate from Massachusetts. It may be true that most independent Artists like Terrance Day won’t receive major airplay in the US. However, new emerging talent can still be heard through an online presence. This has been proven with independent music sales through CD Baby, iTunes, and other online music stores.  Read more...
