The Musicians today

Became a professional musician today isn't easy, and really
never has been. In this era dominated by the communications,
to became today a successful artist is necessary to be
prepared in many ways, i.e., well-instructed artists have a
better chance of success in this changing and competitive
environment. Often isn't enough to be "only" a musician and
this is true particularly for indie musicians whom are in charge
of manufacturing, promoting, distributing and selling
their records.

Many musicians in a wide range of artistic trends are taking
control of their careers and they are taking advantage of it.
They are realising that the major labels (and indie labels too)
do not necessarily know the best way to put their music out
there. So in my opinion is very good that musicians take control
of their music, recordings and image, because know their own
music and very often the great and innovatives ideas are wasted
because of label politics or they simply are not understood.

Of course, independent music is not new at all, but it has turned
out an increasing practice by many talented musicians around
the world. In this digital era, the resources used in creating and
distributing music are cheaper than in past decades. Today, they
haven't problems to turn their musical ideas into professional
recordings, so these problems already do not exist. Now, it's not
necessary to get a record deal to begin a musical career what
music industry people think that the market offers more than
people need. I do not agree with that idea and I think that's not a
bad thing, because allow many more alternatives for listeners that
don't like the "product" that record companies are prepared to give.

By "other side", as those filters don't exist, many music go live with
not enough good management, but everybody is free regarding what
to buy or not to buy (...or simply what to listen).
