Art VS Commercialism: How Much of Each?
When composing music for your new releases, have you
ever found yourself struggling with how far to go in
ensuring that your music is competitive through its
"commercial" aspect enough so as not to bore and lose
potential music buyers while also avoiding the
appearance of your being a "sellout?"
Yet, at the same time, have you wondered how "creative"
you should be in order to satisfy yourself artistically?
If so, you are not alone, because many (if not most)
recording artists whose music is considered "commercial"
have struggled with this on, at least, one occasion.
In my new article titled, "Art vs. Commercialism: How
Much of Each?" (Message #140), I have provided three
primary stereotypes of recording artists, of which you are
likely to fit into one of them.
Additionally, I have provided several tips that can
assist you in getting the "best of both worlds," so to
speak, through satisfaction of your having completely
achieved your artistic goals, as well as your having
added just the right amount of commercialism that will
satisfy your music fans and buyers and, subsequently,
maximize sales of your music.
