You’ve probably seen or been told that most music companies don’t accept unsolicited material (i.e. music they did not request be sent to them). There are many reasons for this but Music Xray is helping music companies solve the problems typically associated with unsolicited music. That is why you are seeing more and more of the traditional music companies joining Music Xray.

By solving problems for music companies and other music industry professionals, Music Xray is able to solve problems for you, like “How do I stand out? How do get my music into the hands of the people who can help me?

Music Xray is a platform that enables you to interact directly with top music industry professionals and submit directly to be considered for revenue generating deals.

You’ve probably noticed that in order to log in to submit music we ask that you use a third-party account.

1. It is secure. When you log in using a third party account (your username and password from another service) you are not giving us your password. Essentially, you are logging-in to that third-party service and they send us a code telling us you are who you say you are. We never get to see your actual log-in details.

2. It’s fast and easy. By using a third-party log-in, you do not have to remember yet another username and password. When you change your password at Facebook (for example) that’s all you have to remember.

3. It’s the future. More and more sites are moving to this type of log-in. We don’t rule out re-introducing our own username and password system but you will start to see more and more sites around the Web moving to this type of login feature. Just look at a few of the sites around the Web that are using this system already.

One last note: Our song submission site and the song presentation packs are separate applications that require that you log in separately. We recommend that you use the same third-party account for both applications and there is even a feature in the presentation packs menu that shows you how to associate your old username and password that you’ve been using with us to a third-party account.

Music Xray is focussed on two things.

1. Getting you and/or your songs signed.
2. Getting you the coaching / advice and feedback you can use to get to the next level.

If the first point isn’t happening for you, concentrate on the second point to learn why and then go back to trying to place your songs and get yourself signed to revenue generating deals. It’s that straight forward. There are no hidden secrets.

Music Xray is NOT a music placement company, a music library or a pre-screener.

Music Xray IS a platform that enables you to place your own music by facilitating direct interactions between song owners and industry decision makers.

But, if you’ve been submitting and you are not getting placements you should get some professional help. Music Xray also enables artists to interact directly with top producers, songwriters and other professionals who give feedback, advice and career coaching to help you understand why you may not be getting placements, how to improve and how to get your career to the next level no matter how successful you’ve been in the past.
