Increasingly artists are coordinating their own full vision, aesthetic, songwriting, productions, and outcomes, so what does a label provide that an artist cannot, A & R, which stands for Artists and Repertoire. This is the division of a record label that is responsible for talent scouting and the artistic and commercial development of the recording artist. It also acts as a liaison between the artist and the record label. Perhaps it's time to A & R yourself. Put yourself into a position of leadership, organize your team, and concept your vision, your brand with clarity.

A workshop open to producers, songwriters, creators, and artists who wish to connect with one another to identify strengths, to build a team of like-minded people, and clarify what is missing. An opportunity to question your role in music and discover potentially a new one. This workshop focused on core skills for building your confidence, creativity, and vision for your project/artistry.

While it has become easier and easier to be a fully independent musician, the process of creating, recording, releasing and promoting your music (whether as singles or albums) can still be daunting. There is a lot to think about and often a lot to learn. Knowing what to expect from each stage (pre-production, recording & post-production, distribution and promotion) and then taking the whole thing one step at a time is the best way to get the most from what should be a very rewarding process.

Son., 10.06 Music Pool Berlin Community Evening: Independent Label Market Berlin x Torstraßen Festival 2018

musicpool intern — Tue, 29 May 2018 10:45:35 +0000

Music Pool Berlin Community Evening: Independent Label Market: Berlin x Torstraßen Festival 2018

Entrance Free / Eintritt Frei

Topic: The role of record labels today (and how to work with them as an artist)

Record labels have always been central players at the core of the music industry, helping musicians and producers in their artistic development, strengthening scenes around peculiar styles and genres and working as a point of convergence for like – minded artists, cultural operators and music fans.

But... what exactly does a record label do? At this Music Pool Berlin Community Evening, we want to explore how the role of record labels has changed during the latest years, understand at what stage of an artist career does a label get involved and provide some useful tips for artists on what’s the best way to approach record labels. In the context of the Torstraßen Festival x Independent Label Market, we gathered together a mixed group of London and Berlin based music industry professionals, all ranging from diverse experiences and backgrounds but with a common independent approach, to help us uncover the issues above.

Panellists:

Chrissie Niestroj/ Domino Recording Company / Domino Deutschland: Chrissie started out in the music industry in London after completing her BA with a dissertation about a new digital service provider: Spotify. Her first gig was with an online music PR company, where she developed an interest in social media management. When she moved on to Quest Management (Arcade Fire, Lykke Li, Marina & The Diamonds) Chrissie built relationships with the key digital players in the music market, seeking out new business models in the digital sphere. In 2014 she moved to Berlin and started working for indie label Domino, where she is a project manager and digital marketer. She also teaches a digital music module on the BA Music Business degree at BIMM Berlin.

Sofia Ilyas/ FLOAT PR: In 2015 Sofia Ilyas launched Float PR and from the offset gained high-profile clients such as Dishoom and Carhartt WIP. Sofia founded Float the record label in 2017 which focuses on music releases, events and clothing. For the labels launch event Sofia curated a evening centered around the piano combining jazz, dance and grime to an audience of over 600 at the Union Chapel. Sofia was previously at Erased Tapes for five years where she was an integral part of raising the profiles of artists such as Nils Frahm as well as the label. She has a monthly show on Soho Radio.

Monique Recknagel/ Sonic Pieces: Monique Recknagel is the owner of Sonic Pieces – a Berlin based boutique record label launched in 2009. Since then she has handpicked and -crafted over 30 releases from national and international artists working at the egde of contempory, classical and experimental music. Despite having an economic background, Monique always kept following her interest in music. After moving to Berlin in 2002 she started doing radio and later also arranged concerts. Starting the label wasn´t intentional, but perhaps an obvious step.

Rainer Scheerer/ SPRINGSTOFF: Rainer Scheerer is a Berliner Artist & Entrepreneur. His Music Label / Booking Agency SPRINGSTOFF is an Independent Music Company. Rainer is a member of the Sandbox Network. With his classical background he see music and performance art in a holistic way, not only to make money, but to create art and change how we see / feel / hear the world of music.

Drinks, music and networking can be enjoyed before and after the talk between the stalls of the market traders into the hallowed halls of the iconic Volksbühne Berlin.

The panel will precede Torstraßen Festival’s final (and biggest) concert, which takes place on the Volksbühne stage and will feature rising Australian superstar Alex Cameron, the toast of Canadian critics Lido Pimienta and Berlin’s favourite Italo Pop duo Itaca. More info: TSF Super Sunday: Alex Cameron, Lido Pimienta, Itaca Tickets still available at VB Vorkasse/ ticket office

Movement of Sounds: Distribution, touring and business of music from African countries in Europe + Meetup with a group of Ghanaian musicians

What are the possibilities and challenges for music from African countries in Germany in particular, but also in Europe overall? Music moves freely through digital networks; a track on Soundcloud uploaded in Lagos or Accra can inspire another musician in Paris and be played in a radio show in Berlin. Afrobeat parties are on the rise around Europe, and musicians take inspirations from a global repertoire so that styles inspire each other globally.

But what does the organizational and business side of music from Africa in Europe look like? When you want to release music in Germany, on an African or a German label? When you want to tour with your band in Europe? When you want to distribute and license your music in Europe? And, when you want to find collaborators over here, or just get attention by press or DJs?

Apart from organizing a panel with people who work with African music and artists in Germany and Europe, from a label, booking, media, promoter and DJ perspective – This Music Pool evening also wants to give all of you interested in cooperation with the Ghanaian music scenes the chance to meet a group of Ghanaian musicians, plus musicians from Germany/Spain/UK, that we are part in hosting in Berlin in mid October.

Pamela Owusu-Brenjah works as A&R consultant with the Africa & Central Europe project of Universal Music, that identifies and signs artists from African countries. She DJs as DJ Pam Bam and organizes the African Food Festival in Berlin.

Georg Milz is a musicjournalist, producer, blogger and DJ, and engaged in urban african music since 15 years. He cofounded the label Outhere Records that released 30 albums of african pop music of which 10 are compilations that give an inside into african club culture. Since a couple of years he runs the website Urban Africa Club where he introduces the newest artist and releases out of the buzzing world of urban africa. Last year he curated the Urban Africa Festival #myfuture 2020 for the Clubbahnhof Ehrenfeld in Cologne.

Christoph Linder runs the friendly booking agency Planetrock, and has organized many European tours for various African bands, like Konono No 1, Hailu Mergia, Nahawa Doumbia, or Orchestre Le Mangelepa.

Max Weissenfeldt is a drummer, producer, label- and publishing company owner. In 2010 he traveled Ghana for the first time and releases since 2014 frequently Ghanaian artists on his label Philophon. Most prominent is the Ghana Music Award winning Frafra artist Guy One.

Aziz is the organiser of some of Germany's biggest and longest running Afrobeats Parties. Under his stage name Mista Wallizz he is also known as an Afrobeats & Afro House DJ having played at various clubs and festivals throughout Germany.
