welcome to developing artist productions

If you are a developing artist, songwriter or producer and want to make music you'll notice something real interesting.  Just as you start to "get good," they start to come out of the woodwork.  They want to be your producer; they want you to record their songs; they want to be your publisher or record company.   They want complete control, and most of the money. 

If you are an artist, the odds of you getting signed to a large national record company are much less than 1 in a thousand.  Even if you beat those odds and get signed by a prominent national company, you have a 97% chance of getting a flop and getting a cancellation of your second record option.  You have a similarly poor chance as a songwriter or producer.  If you too easily say yes, you'll be told what to record, where to record, how to record and if you record, yet have a 99.9% chance of failure.  

developing artist productions was started by three industry professionals with long lists of national hit music credits. We want you to record and produce - we'll help.  We want you to write and publish your own tunes - we'll provide help.  We want you to successfully promote and market your music releases and we'll get you the help that you need to become as successful as your talent will make you.   Maybe more importantly, we'll show you how to keep the vast majority of the money you make at these endeavors.
developing artist productions is prepared to mentor you as you develop in the music business, prepared to counsel and advise you and help you plan your success in this field.   Who is developing artist productions?
