I'm a hard working musician that makes electronic and dance music and I've been making my own music for around a year. Although I'm not great at piano, using synthesizers, drum machines and sequencers, I create music that sounds like a professional product. I'm working on an album right now with a few tracks done on it, and I'm looking to put my music out to the public and possibly gain a record distribution deal with a small independent label. In my current stage, is this reasonable, and if not, what can I do to establish myself as a musician?

A major issue is the style of music I play can't really be "played" I do each track on a sequencer, and the only ways I could play it live are to play just one track or do what some electronic bands do and just DJ my music.

play in highly public areas.

One thing that is increasingly huge in popularity is MySpace. You can sign up there as an artist, and share you music, etc. And there's no shortage of people over there, that's for sure! There's bound to be people that'll dig your music. Sometimes MySpace artists are successful, sometimes not - you've just gotta put your time into it. If you sign up over there, I recommend "friending" bands and such that are in the same genre as you and you'll gain a lot of their fans as well. Just something to look into!

Gather a BIG fan base..
One publicity option that seems to be huge at the moment is pimping yourself on myspace music - create a profile and start adding people. try to seek out others who have an interest in your musical genre

If your music is good...
-You need to create a demo product and get it on the web.
-Find something that makes you stick out above the rest and exploit the hell out of it.
-Meet as many people as possible and tell them about your music.
-OR hire a manager to figure it out for you.
