SURFACE TO AIR BASE CAMP AND MANAGEMENT PLAN
​
​
-
Having difficulty promoting your tracks?
​
-
Don’t know how to establish a deal with a label, publisher or booking agency?
​
-
Having problems building an online fanbase?
​
-
Can't figure out how to stand out from the crowd?
​
​
These days, we don’t always get time to follow our dreams with the level of commitment we need. Life gets in the way, and the process of becoming a full time DJ/Artist/Producer can take much longer than we want. What’s more, if we approach our music careers in an untargeted way, then we end up making mistakes - and this process of trial and error just ends up costing us more money and resources.
​
At Surface To Air Agency, we want to change that. Our goal is to equip you with the tools, resources and knowledge you need to have the ultimate springboard into the industry. A lot of emerging/up and coming artists fall short at the early stages because of the business side of things.
Surface To Air Agency have over 30 years of experience in music and have learnt how to change with the tides in this ever evolving industry. We will offer you 1 to 1 tailored mentoring on your branding, goals, sound, creative productions and marketing. Between us and our clients, we’ve had high profile syncs, mainstage festival residencies, hundreds of millions of streams, and helped many people create sustainable careers in music. We won’t be sending you a list of links to pre-recorded videos. All of your sessions will be video calls with seasoned professionals who will be offering advice that is specific to your music and your career.
​
Surface To Air Agency are excited to offer two packages to help you kickstart your music career. The one-off ‘Basecamp’ program is a fast track to getting your career up and running. An intensive one month program that includes 5 hours of one-to-one sessions and some amazing takeaways. And if you are truly serious about your career they also offer a management program that will allow you to work one on one with them over a period of at least 6 months. For more details, read on.
