How to build A local Scene
How to build A local Scene Posted on: 28.08.2013 by Shela Toumey Hey Everyone,I am just wondering if there was anyone here that has built a local scene for EDM. There is some what one down here in music city, but they aren't about bringing in new talent unless you were with them before they were established. Let me know if anything like this has happened to you and how you got around it. Thanks, PHader | |

| Shela Toumey 28.08.2013 | That's the plan, tomorrow evening the bingo players are doing a gig, I am believeing about making a new hr long mix to hand out at the show. The TN EDM crew is who I was talking about; tried talking with that dude with no luck; plus I read somewhere he isn't going to be doing shows that much anymore. They shut down his venue on 9th ave downtown and has some one steal some of his lighting I guess I read in a post. I'm trying to do my own thing, get something working, trying to network with some of the people around, never had a shot at playing something more than small venues (believe the max at one time was 250-300 people, and they were because the other bars were packed also). |
| Lannie Kutay 28.08.2013 | my work almost moved me to Nashville, 2 months ago. I checked the music scene and told em, I didn't want to go!! But do a little more research on google. I believe there is a small amount of underground EDM going on there. Hardcore - https://www.facebook.com/TN.EDM A few tours passing through. http://electronicmidwest.com/edm-eve...dar/tennessee/ I will say, you DEFINITELY need to go to the mainstream big name shows, so you can meet people and network, find people who like the same music. Who knows... you could be the next Kaskade. He built his own scene. |

As far as spinning anywhere, currently no, just online; like I said, market for new acts are limited. You either need to be big name or from the local circle. Some of the people around here know who I am, I've tried getting with some of the promoters around, dropping my mixes off to promoters, other local djs and overall random people trying to get hype up, but still nothing. |
| Hellen Mindrup 28.08.2013 | Do you use Soundcloud? Do you have any music out? What are the details? Do you spin anywhere at all? Does anyone know who you are? Etc. |
