The organization SOCAN licenses music to stores and businesses in Canada. When stores want to play music they get permission from SOCAN and SOCAN makes arrangement to the royalty holders of the music.

How do you collect royalties for a song you produced?

The record company that makes the album should be sending you royalty checks if you have signed a contract as produced of a song they publish. If you produced the song for a flat fee with no sales percentage split in a contract, you can't collect royalties. In the US, companies like ASCAP distribute royalties for songs played on tv and radio. In Canada, SOCAN does the same.

Where to buy laminate flooring in varna Bulgaria?

Praktiker is the Bulgarian equivalent to Home Base.' They have a web page - but make sure you go to the page that says Praktiker bg on line. They do home delivery, and accept English credit cards on line, although have a delivery charge,but can deliver all over BG. Takes between 2 - 5 working days for delivery, they don't call in advance to say they are coming but you can track your delivery on their web site socan work outwhen it is arriving. There is also a Praktiker store in Varna. I have found the home delivery very helpful and they are able to correspond in English if like me you don't speak any Bulgarian.

Up and coming artist and corporation, with Kings Garden/New Generation Enterprise which is the largest independent company, in the world.


How do you get hired to work for a music artist?

There's a few options when looking to manage a music act/artist... First, you have to ask yourself what commitment you are willing to make for your artist. generally, if you have made it this far its either because you have one amazing independent artist you want to manage or you want to manage multiple artists. If you have one artist, you must be warned that you will not be able to make a living unless your artist can pull in over 20 000 worth of merch and shows per month (Based on fairly standard 10%) This is why most managers choose the multi-artist approach... but I digress, that will come later on... Your role as single artist manager is to be the direct communication and negotiation master. You need to get gigs, and not sell out your artist (unless that's what you both want... then more power to you). What you need to do to manage a single artist:1-know people - The more favors you do, the more you can call in. Simple concept. 2-treat it as a business- This means keep ALL records of EVERYTHING! Register a business, and know a lawyer (especially if they owe you a favor). You don't need to pay the lawyer yet, just know one you and your artist agree on, that you can call in a crisis. Also, you will need to write contracts that are legit... its a lot harder than it seems. 3-SOCAN-Register your artist for SOCAN. This eliminates a lot of your problems. 4-Press-Find ways to get your artist heard. Start a website (you should front the costs for this... as you should with all little things... the more you do for your artist, the more they wont drop you when they hit the big times. Think about where you are going to play. Have these people been exposed to this music before? Why not? Fix that. 5-Shows- Get shows for your artist. If you are playing in new turf, consider touring as an opening act at first... you can cheaply and quickly create a fanbase that will prove inevitable. Basically, you need to play it smart. You also need to know that you wont be making more than 10% of your artists profits (If you can think you can get more, you wont. If you can, your taking advantage of an artist). This is why most people manage multiple artists. Its all the same, but your taking your artists needs and juggling it all with your other artists needs. You will eventually need assistance, use your own judgment. You will also be making more. 10% isn't much... x 10 artists, your making as much as one of them. Have 20 artists on your label? Your doubling your artists pay. All in all its a very stressful career choice, but an enjoyable small venture if you have the time. Hope this helps your search ACM

Why is it illegal to download music from the web?

Illegal downloading deprives original composers of a fee for their work. Musicians and composers often only have their intellectual property and output available for sale- they do not produce goods - rather than simply produce ideas or performances. To obtain copies of musical works in an unauthorized manner is comparable to stealing goods from a retail store.If musicians and composers are not paid for their efforts, then they become reluctant to engage in this type of work and ultimately society is the poorer for that loss. We all need to support musicians and composers by paying a fair price for services so that we encourage them to continue giving us pleasure.Illegal downloading deprives original composers of a fee for their work.
