iTunes Delivery – LMFMusic provides a way to get your original music onto iTunes. LMFMusic is working from a musician’s perspective, more artists and great original music to be heard by the World.

iTunes is one of the biggest and most influential platforms for digital music sales and offers a huge opportunity for your high quality music to be heard and sold across the globe. By uploading high quality tracks (using the required formats and specs), you are giving yourself a strong shot at taking things to the next level as an iTunes artist. It is very difficult to get major record labels to even acknowledge your existence and even harder to get them to listen to your tracks, so why not go straight to your audience!

Music Deals  – A music deal is a contract between an artist/songwriter and a music company, be it a record label, a manager, a distribution company or a producer. There are many different types of music deals, depending on the artist and the situation. There is no such thing as a standard contract for a music deal. Every time, the parties have to agree who will do what, by when, what happens if they don’t do it and how everyone gets paid. Deals are wide ranging and they can include agreements on licensing, mechanical sales, performance and recording requirements, merchandise, rights and royalties just to name a few. We recommend you become familiar with the different types of contracts.  Get advice before signing contracts. All contracts are negotiable; be careful not to negotiate yourself a bad deal.  Deals can be lost when the artist/manager or representative want more than the contract offers.  It is in your best interest to work with the record company when you are offered a music deal.

Generate Exposure  – A successful music career stems on how many people are aware of your existence. The more people who know and love your music, the more digital music sales and concert ticket sales you will generate. Promotion from your own efforts is vital, quite apart from any promotion you may be offered within a music deal. Social Media is the most effective platform for generating exposure. Even the biggest celebrities self-promote via social media. Websites are a stable place for the public to find information about you or your music, but sites like Facebook, Twitter (including apps like Vine), YouTube and Soundcloud are just some of the many social media platforms which allow you to reach and interact with millions of people across the globe each day.
