Many major artists and labels are somewhat confused about how to reach the millions of fans who thirst for new music, but we&#8217;re not, lol. With the emergence of satellite radio, internet radio and digital streaming services, the indie artist now has a level playing field when it comes to having their music played and being heard by millions of fans.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">The first step for any artist is song protection and proper song registration. Companies like Soundscan, BDS and Radiowave all do digital radio tracking, and Sound Exchange is the exclusive company appointed by the Library of Congress to collect and distribute royalties to artists and copyright owners for music being played throughout various streaming services and digital radio stations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">You no longer have to be signed to a label in order to receive royalties, but the key is still good music. A hit song is a hit song, whether you&#8217;re indie or signed. So once you have a hit, the next step is to get the copyrights and then have song registered with a P.R.O. or a performing rights organization like ASCAP, BMI, SESAC or the Harry Fox Agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">These companies distribute royalties for your music that\u2019s played on terrestrial radio (FM radio). They pay the songwriter, the composer of the music and the publishing company who indexes and administers the business side of a song. Although these services charge a small fee, you will be able to receive royalties directly to your bank account or mailbox.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1734\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1734\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1734\" alt=\"Villa Dom\" src=\"http:\/\/amusednow.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Villa-Dom-head-shot-225x185.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"185\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1734\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Villa Dom<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Aside from being the new wave marketing and promotion gurus of this new digital and social music industry, <i>Smiz The MoneyKid<\/i> and <i>Villa Dom<\/i> have been building successful indie careers since 1998.
