    Hey guys, what differentiates long term successful guys like KSHMR/Zedd from other music producers who upload songs with record label but only one or two and it seems they have good songs but they do not do music full time even when they want to, how do some music producers be able to tour with their music and what about getting managers as an artist and having that long term success? And what type of contracts do the label give? Is it of just one song or for years? And what type of contracts lead to being successful like guys like Kshmr? Obviously the first thing is good music and personal hard work which I do, and most passionate music producers do. But what’s next for the long term success for guys who wanna do music full time. Not just getting few tracks on labels and just fade away. And could u tell us about managers of the artists and how to find them as well please? Thank you for your time, cheers guys!

    • @musicbyLUKAS

      The label decides the release date. Sometimes you can negotiate it but that's after they ask to sign it 🖤

      @@xnotemusic I understood your question mate but it's basically the same answer. The label won't accept it since they want unreleased stuff to release it themselves, unless they REALLY love the track and offer you a re-release which is very uncommon (thinking of Marten Horger and Confession)

      Tepedy yeah it‘s possible. I think it was the case by ellis - show me how, but im not 100% sure. It got released on FHM after it was already selfreleased. Its more likely to get a promotion in radioshows, on youtubechannels, Spotifyplaylist etc.
