Today I heard back from Stanley at Naz-Sect music publishing. (refer to DAY -114) He said he LOVED "Remember the Summer Nights"... actually to quote him, he said "I think this song is a hit!"
Unfortunately, he said the recording quality wasn't at the level that it needs to be to be considered "Master Quality, so he wouldn't be able to use the track.
I know the track isn't master quality... its a demo. However, it just goes to show how competitive the market is!! Normal song demo's just don't cut it these days. Not all, but a lot of Music Labels and Publishing Companies do not have the time or $$$ to spend cutting a master recording, even if they LOVE the song. They are looking for HIT songs already wrapped and tied up in a bow.
He ended the email by saying, "if you get a professional mix and master of this song, re-submit it and we'll start pitching it." Definitely food for thought! I wrote back and thanked him for listening and told him I'd definitely be keeping in touch.
CHAPTER 2: NASHVILLE - The purpose of this blog is to network with at least 1 music industry professional every business day for 365 days with the goal of "making it" as a songwriter/recording artist. Below I will document my efforts, successes, failures and lessons learned daily. Stay tuned!
