Labels vs. self-release isn’t a religion; it’s a tactic. We unpack how new producers can actually break through today: engineer DJ support, ship consistently, and treat labels as amplifiers (not saviors). We dig into why Spotify monthly listeners don’t equal ticket sales, using current scene examples, and how niche impact often beats mass streams. Community questions spark real talk on starting as a ghost producer (product first, relationships second), handling stage fright (skill, prep, and perspective), and whether formal training helps vs. trial-and-error. We also jam on content: when to hire creative help, what still has to be “you,” and how mood-driven visuals can carry a track. Plus: ADE lunch + seminar update (limited tickets).
