you’re animal im animal i respect you and i care about you. i hate the economy. three months or so before your release, stuff to have completely done: audio masters, album art, artist photographs, super short bio, album metadata, digital liner notes, lyrics, music videos, and write a draft template for your email pitches. get your physical media if applicable. cds and tapes might take a month, vinyl might take five. make sure you have control over your accounts for spotify for artists and apple music for artists so you can pitch music to their editorial boards. do all this stuff first so you don’t burn out and avoid doing it! many people have been asking about what “promotion” i did when i released the ghosts beneath our feet last year. so i thought i’d get some of those thoughts down while they’re still kinda in my head. making music is hard, publishing it is tedious, and promoting it is soul-crushing. hopefully some of these thoughts can help get you through the process with your own projects. otherwise, we

this is a spiritual war and i’m gonna win. i am now officially only releasing music on overdubbed cassette. you can get it by a) mailing me cash or by b) finding me. all my old albums are gone from the internet. many people have been asking about what “promotion” i did when i released the ghosts beneath our feet last year. so i thought i’d get some of those thoughts down while they’re still kinda in my head. making music is hard, publishing it is tedious, and promoting it is soul-crushing. hopefully some of these thoughts can help get you through the process with your own projects. otherwise, welcome to a mortifying peak into my melted mind. my sincere apologies for being annoying, mean, stupid, boring, embarrassing, cringe, depressive, unbearable, useless, etc. etc. want help with writing promotional materials and stuff? hire me at https://noranygard.com/ ; listen to the second half of this episode at https://www.patreon.com/noranygard ; i’m a 39-year-old content moderator for one of the big five open source

is disco real? can disco be defined by its musical elements and if so, what are they? what are the relationships between disco and the genres that preceded and succeeded it? who produced and consumed disco? can disco be defined by its social utility and what it meant to the people who consumed it? what effects did the process of commercialization have on “disco” and how does that influence people’s perceptions of disco at the time as well as from our historical perspective? what changes in dance music during the 1970s and 1980s can be attributed to technological advances and new or inexpensive consumer goods? what were the impacts of the social and political environments of the time? i saw mario movie. it was perfect. i want to make you a dance remix https://noranygard.com/ ; support me and get extra episodes at https://www.patreon.com/noranygard ; my disco and proto disco youtube playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7mlUTrcZAsODDRegLmtzqI4g98XYjMxb ; i was celebrating trans day of visibility so i we
