It’s an honor to see new artists who wish to join us. The vision of #WEATNU works for the artist who mirrors the efforts the label makes. These include making an effort to promote your music along with our posts on Twitter, Facebook, etc, once your release happens, because the artist will be tagged on each and every promotional post.
Be involved and engage
Allowing friends, fans and followers to see these posts on your personal profiles on Twitter, Facebook or other social media platforms. The success of others hearing your music depends on the work you put into our simple promotion. #WEATNU helps the artist by giving them the free tools they need to get their music out to a community of like-minded artists, and even fans. Will you be releasing continually to our label instead of one song, drop and go? We wish to make this your home, and of course you can release where you like as well, no rules there, as always.
Success comes from what you put in.
It is our compassion for the music, that drives the spirit of this label and its movement. Artists that cannot mirror the efforts made by the label simply will not be as successful, and the vision of #WEATNU will not work for you. It is 50/50, you do your part and we do ours to the greatest extent.
Freedom to the artist
WEATNU Records is not a corp entity, or run by big MGMT, firms, or the music industry. The movement itself began on Twitter during 2014 and grew to what you see now. All artists here are important to us.
WEATNU Records does not have access to indie stores to sell your music (yet) but it’s part of the process as we reach greater heights for the artist.
Sales are never guaranteed
We cannot help the artist make sales, but the promo and tools the label uses to help your music be heard will allow your fans and friends to have access to your music free, on streaming sites such as Spotify. This is possible revenue for you, including Bandcamp sales if they occur.
Spread the word about your label once you join
Tell people who you follow, that you’ve joined us! It makes a huge difference, trust me.
The artist is appreciated here
Help us help you and you will see how awesome it is to be part of this movement we have.
#WEATNU is radio | label | magazine – it’s a machine that helps musicians be noticed and appreciated, and I hope it always helps drive the music to the underground listener.
The benefits of joining our label
Once you are part of us, you get access to doing online performances live from the Twitch account we have. Access to our Bandcamp for labels profiles, where you will be able to upload music in private, or your entire collection and release it to the date set. The label will promote your music then on Twitter and Bandcamp to the community.
Also we mirror your Bandcamp upload and send it to Symphonic Dist where the music will be furthered released to all major stores, including Apple and Spotify, yes we even have Beatport, including a chatroom on Discord – where you can talk to other artists on weatnu records.
One person runs all of #WEATNU, this is a partially manual and automated task, at times the artist may need to wait for various tasks to be completed. These tasks will be completed as soon as possible.
A Twitter account is highly recommended.
It is not helpful to the artist in the way we promote, if they do not have Twitter, most of what we do for the artist is done through Twitter.
It costs nothing to join us
Free promo, not ad-driven pay but word of mouth via our community and your friends. A rich community of artists that continues to grow. A free radio that anyone can join, a magazine that you can request to be interviewed on once you sign with us, the ability to join and leave any time you wish. And we continue to create more features that benefit the artist. I hope all these things are a help to you.
Also we rely on our chatroom to give you fresh up to date stuff happening here. It is highly recommended that you check our discord from time to time.
We aren’t about having an artist jump on stage, play a song and go, never to be heard from again. We are looking for people who need to be heard, who are making music, who have a longing to present their music to others. That’s the kind of people #WEATNU represents.
Artists will not be successful here if they do not put in effort. If the artist expects the label to do it all for them, including, giving them fans, fame, or sales, this never works.
If you agree to these requirements, awesome! Welcome aboard.
Thank you,
Almark
