COMPILATIONS
Our compilations are a great way to get off the internet and promote your music to REAL people, and expand the horizons of your fan base. We will pound the pavement and make sure that your music gets into the hands of eager listeners. With several successful compilations under our belt already, and many more to come, HTP is quickly becoming an industry leader in taking promotion to the streets, and the "Support the Scene" compilations are becoming known as one of the most prominent independent compilations available. We take great care in every project, and put our heart and soul into promoting every band we come into contact with to the best of our abilities. Most STS compilations also offer some online promotions too, as well as other extras. Be sure to check out our currently scheduled comps below!
STS Compilation - SOUTH BY SO WHAT? MUSIC FESTIVAL (DAY 2)
Your song will be included on 100 cd's which will be passed out free to music fans attending SOUTH BY SO WHAT? MUSIC FESTIVAL (DAY 2) (Lineup and event details below)! You will be provided pictures and/or video from the event, via e-mail, of us passing these cd's out. There will also be an online release of this cd, which will be heavily promoted by HTP. We'll even include some online promotion for your band, and more! For more details and information, please keep reading.
***EVENTS DETAILS***
The 100 cd's your bands song will be on, will be passed out for free to attenders at the following event:
SOUTH BY SO WHAT? MUSIC FESTIVAL 2014 (DAY 2), March 15th @ Quiktrip Park, Grand Prairie, TX. Line up features: Bring Me The Horizon, Of Mice & Men, Motionless In White, Mindless Self Indulgence, For Today, Attila, Crown The Empire, Born Of Osiris, Like Moths To Flames, Issues, Alesana, Letlive, Adestria, Close To Home, Famous Last Words, Fit For A King, Lionfight, Oceano, The Bunny The Bear, and many more!
Cd Details:
The cd's themselves will have a printed label, a 2 panel insert with cover on front/track listing and band websites on back, and will include a slim jewell case with black back. Also, it's important to note that, unlike most places that do similar comp cd's, we take an extra step and master all the songs sent and try to get them so that they are at a somewhat consistent volume throughout the cd. This enhances the listeners experience and therefore, it's more effective promotion. In addition to the printings, we include the artist website on the digital information of the song, so when the listener plays it in the computer they can easily find your website!
Online Release Details:
A version of the cd will be made available for free download/streaming from our Facebook/Bandcamp. This will be heavily promoted by us, on our page and many other pages that we use, and even through paid advertising. We will rotate the order of the songs on the online release, to ensure a more even amount of plays for everyone. This will be left up for free download up to one month (after date of event cd's were passed out at), but will continue to be streamed indefinitely!
Online Promotion:
As mentioned above, we'll even promote your band online! Your band will be featured in at least 7 HTP reach booster posts on our page (posts include a tag for your band, description of genre(s), and location. Grouped with 6-9 other bands on a post), and 3 HTP spotlight posts (posts include a tag for your band, as well as links to your music, youtube, twitter, website, and any other you may have). These posts also get posted on our twitter account! Finally, your band will also be featured in a post on our website, www.hearthispromotions.com .
ALSO:
You may send us some of your business cards, stickers, shirts, or anything else you'd like us to pass out for your band while we're at the event. We're here to help you in any way we can!
Extras and Bonuses:
Being on a HTP compilation is a great way to put you on our radar. Many times, we have discussions with friends who are in the music business, and get asked for recommendations on bands. We tend to pay closer interest to, and pay more recommendation to bands that have participated in our compilations.
Also, during December we host what we call the HTP Invitational; It is essentially a showcase that incorporates many aspects of our different services. We choose our favorites and standouts from the years previous compilations, and invite them to join the invitational, completely free of charge as our way of saying thanks!
The Fine Print:
Please understand, you will not receive any physical cd's. Photos and/or video will be sent to you via e-mail, of us passing the cd's out at said event (within 48 hours after date of event). This serves as proof of fulfillment of our service. If you'd like to order additional cd's for yourself, band mates, fans, friends, and family, please e-mail or message us!
The order tracks appear on the cd's is solely up to HTP, and is decided by us just before production of the cd's. We do not guarantee any specific track placement on the cd's.
Said event, (or event that cd's will be passed out at), is subject to change at any time without notice, for any reason. In this instance, HTP will reschedule for a suitable event. Participants may ask for a refund if unhappy with chosen replacement event, however, no refunds will be made if the cd's to be passed have already been produced!
To maintain our professional image in the industry, we require decent quality recordings. You must submit your song, and it must be approved by us before your bands participation in this compilation is official. Why? Two reasons. First, we need to be behind what we promote, so that we can give it our all. Second, we're not here to take advantage of anyone. We want to make sure that the bands who participate in a comp are going to get the most for their dollar, and not waste money when it could be better spent elsewhere. This is only ideal for bands and artists at a certain stage, and we feel it'd be wrong to take money from any band who wouldn't receive the maximum possible benefit from this opportunity. If your unsure where your recording falls, we encourage you to submit your song (see how below). The worst that could happen is we'll say something like, "try shootin' us a track of your next ep".
If you still have a question and for more information, please e-mail us at [email protected] or message us on the HTP Facebook page!
That just about covers it all! So, if you're excited, if you're intrigued, and if you're ready to be promoted, then reserve your space now by clicking "add to cart", completing the checkout process, and submitting your song for approval.
