Can we just discuss how some EDM and big room DJs not only got that big in the first place, but also how they remain headlining huge festivals when they have done nothing for the past 15 years. I’m sooo confused 😂.

Don’t send your music to labels and wait months for them to get back to you, they may never reply at all. Send to the biggest labels & work your way down the pecking order until you get signed. Not everyone will agree with this method but it works, I’ve tried & tested it 🤝.
