Surviving in the music industry requires luck and patience, but most of all it requires an intricate knowledge of how a record company functions. The signing of a recording contract is a slow process. The record company will spend a long time investigating the band and current trends in popular music; during this period, it is important that a band reciprocate with an investigation ofits own, learning as much as possible about the company and making personal connections within the different departments that will handle their recordings, A record company’s search for new talent usually begins by sending a representative of the Artists and Repertoire (A&R) department to visit bars and night clubs scouting for young, talented bands. When the representative ‘identifies a promising band, he or she will work to negotiate a contract and make the recording arrangements. Once a band has finished recording the album, the Publicity and Promotions department takes over and decides whether or not to mass produce and market the band’s album.
