How to find a distributor For Your Music

You have managed to record an album, you now have to make it available to the public in the bins of record stores and on download and streaming platforms. This is called distribution.

We distinguish the distributor of physical supports (CD, vinyl, DVD ...) of the digital distributor, although sometimes these two activities are carried out by the same company.

The physical distributor is the one who is in contact with the points of sale, who approaches them, checks the installation of disks, facings , the state of orders and stocks, etc.

The digital distributor is the one that approaches the platforms of both sales (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) and streaming (Deezer, Spotify, etc.), which duplicates and delivers the files in the right formats, establishes partnerships, highlighted, etc.

In either case, a label or artist formalizes its relationship with the distributor through the signing of a distribution contract, in which the distributor takes a percentage of the wholesale price that allows him to pay for his performance.

Depending on the type of music you have recorded, depending on your notoriety, you will look for one or more distributors that allow you to reach your audience. From the aggregator specialized in self-produced artists to the distribution department of a major, there are a lot of actors in this sector and they do not all offer the same service: be attentive to the content of the proposed contract!

You can also open an online store to sell your albums and derivatives on your site, but be careful to ensure that your distribution agreement, if you have signed one, is not exclusive.

Revelation on UNN suicide saga by Bestie

I spent close to one hour on Chukwuemeka Akachi, the UNN graduate student that committed suicide by taking two bottles of sniper last night. All about him were just weird and scary. I got to a point where he wrote: " Finite Hic Deo " meaning God ends here. He was an atheist and everything about him changed when he studied Gothic Literature as an English and Literal student Nah. In his suicide note, he wrote, "The said you came looking for me, I didn't drown, I was the water" was taken from Jo Nketiah timeline, a poet who actually uses that slogan to stay strong but Chukwuemeka uses it to end his life. I read comments and posts from his friends. You can check up #Ifeanyi__Nwakpoke and #Neke__Eze timeline. Now, Chukwuemeka Akachi wasn't mentally unstable. He was perfectly okay and loved.
