PF: Hi, Mario. So I hear that there will be a Music2Deal update happening in January 2019. What types of benefits can we expect? MC: Well, we've noticed that there are many members who still are not benefiting as much as they can from our system so we're helping them in this new update. For example, many members haven't uploaded a Music (Song) Offer even though it´s free with a Basic Membership. Or sometimes they post their music in the wrong section. Although we tried with former updates to optimized the usability, members often don´t know the right steps to do on Music2Deal. So the idea of Music2Deal is great and a lot of people are already doing good business on Music2Deal. But to be honest, sometimes it´s just a matter of having the right knowledge. For example, someone who is working in the music business should know about the differences between the song copyrights and the performance protection rights, so that they know in which section they should post their music offer. When I look at these sections I sometimes see members who don´t have …

This group has been organised as a more efficient way to send educational, instructional and informative information concerning the entertainment industry. They will also communicate pending and possible business opportunities. Allen Johnston just started the 1st topic “Music needed for Korea” in the forum Business opportunities. Join the group and don´t miss opportunities.

This very extensive update contains so many features that we would like to introduce this in advance. Since our network is aimed at professionals in the music industry, the focus of this update is to create more features and tools to enable even more professional working with Music2Deal. In the following we will introduce the new features & tools in detail.

So this is the best time to introduce you to the booking and artist-discovery platform gigmit. More than 5,500 promoters use gigmit to find acts for their line-up and to book! In the past, the Sziget Festival was one of the biggest promoters, but right now the biggest showcase festivals from UK (Liverpool Sound City) and Portugal (Westway Lab) are looking for suitable artists through gigmit. In 2017 gigmit initiated a network for showcase festivals with 8 European festivals: 13 festivals in Europe book exclusively through gigmit now and they all want to present Upcoming Artists to the music industry. Since the launching of gigmit, artists have been offered and paid a total of 8 million euros in fees through the platform. As a Music2Deal member, you profit from all of those perks: have a 30% discount on a gigmit PRO membership, just for you! Your voucher code: 30-OFF-PRO

Since there are still a lot of people in the music industry, whether it ́s an artist, songwriter, producer or even a record label who don’t see the importance of YouTube, Marcus founded Braverick to offer services like YouTube MCN, YouTube channel optimization, as well as music distribution and Spotify promotion. Music2Deal: What exactly is an MCN? Marcus Behrens: An MCN (Multi-Channel-Network) is a way for YouTube creators to access useful resources to grow their channels, as well as copyright protection, ad revenue, and YouTube partnership. MCNs deal with monetization, advertising, and copyright law, to help the creators focus on their creative content. You don’t necessarily need an MCN to produce monetized content, but partnering with an MCN offers benefits that make it easier. These benefits include assistance with search engine optimization (SEO), access to video production facilities, funding for costly projects, and seamless access to other platforms besides YouTube.MCNs make money off the “revenue share”. This is shared money earned from monetizing your videos and advertising with the MCN’s ad partners. You also get a share of these same profits. The percentage that the MCN takes varies – as high as 40% if you are small and don’t have a lot of weight to throw around, or as low as 10% if you are a big, viral channel. To think that an MCN just greedily scoops up your money then goes away, is not the best way to look at it. In return for being able to share your profits, your network will provide you with access to tools that will help grow your channel and make it more popular. They want your channel to grow, because the more money it makes, the more they make. They are in your corner. Music2Deal: Do I need a YouTube MCN? Marcus Behrens: Some channels, in particular, music and gaming channels, don’t need to partner with YouTube networks to monetize their content, as long as …

gigmit offers gig possibilities that will take you further. Even festivals like Liverpool Sound City, Berlin Music Week, Deichbrand, Jazzahead and Sziget have booked gigmit artists. More than 5,500 organizers regularly advertise their free slots in the daily updated gig database. With this partnership you profit as a Music2Deal member with special conditions from gigmit. More information about this soon.

Whether they are artists, songwriters, producers, record labels or publishers. A place where all these people can present their channels, ideas, projects, and new business opportunities. Have a look at the 1st discussion “My music is on YouTube - Do I need an MCN?” What is your opinion and let us know what you are thinking.

Proudly SA and Proudly KZN Bright Nkanyiso Dlungwana aka Bright Deep, born 1992, hails from Pinetown (KwaZulu Natal) in a small township called St Wendolins. He is also a soldier by profession. Being raised by a grandmother in a small township taught him a lot about life, especially how to hold onto being a good person while being completely vulnerable to every bit of bad society like drugs and bullying. He believes that all his life experiences as a child have made him a better artist. In 2014, Bright Deep was called up for SANDF (South African National Defence Force) training which is when he withdrew from the entertainment industry. In 2016, he deployed to the DRC with the SANDF for more than year. This year cemented in his soul that he belongs in "entertainment", music in particular. He wrote 73 songs while he was deployed in Congo! Being a soldier and an artist at the same time was not a good experience for him. He describes balancing the two as climbing a mountain without a rope. Bright Deep describes his sound as Hip Hop mixed with a little of Afro Pop and RnB. For me, his music just has everything I love in a song. Recently he released a single Get Dirty his fans have confirmed a "Hit." When he released Get Dirty, the feedback was so overwhelming, he wasn't quite sure if it was for real. Very exciting to kick off your career with such a single. Get Dirty was produced by Stan. Inspired locally by Loyiso Bala and HHP and internationally by Nas, the young Nkanyiso used to imitate Tupac growing up. Growing up, his older brother used to play many different genres from Hip Hop to Pop. It was especially Hip Hop that Bright Deep ended up falling in love with. As time went on, he started putting his own words in all the songs his brother played, even funny and wrong, starting as most of us do walking in the footprints of those who have gone before us. He started writing his own lyrics at the age of 14, writing about his childhood experiences. He was always fascinated by the words in everyTupac song. He was inspired by how Tupac took what happened in society and in his own life and put it into music. To him Tupac was a true artist and poet. It made him realise that he could be a musical artist, that he had talent yet to be actualised. Bright Deep is signed to New York based record label Bentley Records. He has also signed a distribution and publishing deal with Gallo. Locally he is managed by a well known and loved Durban Youth Radio Presenter and DJ - DJ Worldwide. Bright Deep had a taste of the big time when he wrote all the music and featured in the movie "Uhlanga The Mark", written & produced by award winning author Ndaba ka Ngwane. A story of 9 year old Khaba Mkhize (played by Sbo Da Poet Mbutho). Mandla Thabede (played by Linda "Mr Magic" Sibiya), inspires Khaba to challenge the status quo. Khaba Mkhize is a rural boy from Umzumbe, South of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. His life is turned upside down when he watches helplessly as his father is doused with gasoline and burned to death when the villagers descend on his family. His second single was Babe Ngenzeni was with Kwaito superstar Banzy. Stream here He also released Matrimony featuring Fey and that song was released overseas by Bentley Records. Currently he is working on releasing a new single titled Inhliziyo. Bright Deep has shared the stage with Fey, Banzy, Lvovo, Professor and Babes Wodumo. Bright Deep has been playlisted at Alfred Nzo FM, Inanda FM, Sajonisi FM, Vibe FM, Ukhozi FM, DYR and radio stations in New York. Social Media Links: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Brightdeepsa/
