the correct answer to each of the following questions.
It is very difficult to succeed in the music business; nine out of ten bands that release a first record
fail to produce a second. Surviving in the music industry requires luck and patience, but most of all it
requires a detailed knowledge of how a record company functions. The process begins when a
representative of a company's Artist and Repertoire (A&R) department visits bars and night clubs,
scouting for young, talented bands. After the representative identifies a promising band, he or she
will work to negotiate a contract with that band. The signing of this recording contract is a slow
process. A company will spend a long time investigating the band itself as well as current trends in
popular music. During this period, it is important that a band reciprocate with an investigation of its Trang 2
own, learning as much as possible about the record company and making personal connections with
the different departments that will handle its recordings.
Once a band has signed the contract and has finished recording an album, the Publicity and
Promotions department takes over. This department decides whether or not to mass produce and
market the band's album. Most bands fail to make personal contacts in this second department thus
losing their voice in the important final process of producing and marketing their album. This loss of
voice often contribute to the band’s failure as a recording group.
