Thanks to everyone who’s been sending demos over.
Listening through them has given me a few ideas for some tips that might help artists when submitting music to labels.
These aren’t just for Hudd Traxx, but hopefully useful when sending demos to any label.

The challenge I find is it's really hard to be a subjective judge of which of your tracks are the best fit for a label. Lots of my signings have definitely not been the ones I thought were best for a label. I assumed that labels skip through them anyway to see what grabs them, more chance to find gold if there's more to choose from. That being said I can see it wouldn't be a fun day having to sift through 100s of questionable demos

Totally agree that a focused, on-point demo makes everyone's life easier, and A&Rs definitely appreciate not having to dig through their inbox..Time is precious on both sides!! That said, my experience has been a bit different. I've had tracks signed that I was sure wouldn't fit a label's portfolio, so over time I started sending a mix: some tracks I think match the label’s sound, plus a few in a different vibe or direction. I also tend to send a slightly larger batch, because I want to show the bigger picture of what I do as an artist.. It really varies from label to label! Ofc! and I think every track has its own home somewhere. For me the key is to keep sending music and to build a solid network of A&Rs who understand your work and want to take care of it. Big hugs to everyone.. and keep the music flowing!!
