Amazing read for any upcoming musician or anyone who works in the music industry right now and would like an inside on how to work yourself up

[Tegan Washington · Rating 4 out of 5]

Of course there’s lots of useful knowledge about playlisting in this book, but there’s an equal amount of other scattered music business tips and tricks that are extremely useful. My only gripe is the book’s structure, but still enjoyed!

Un gran libro para la gente interesada en iniciar en la industria musical (o que ya es parte de ella), muy fácil de leer, con muchos ejemplos y herramientas externas.

Straightforward advice with several tips and resources in here that left me positively surprised. As someone that's been in the music space for a while, I was skeptical at first that this would be much fluff. However, Mike really presents a concise step-by-step guide based on experience for how to essentially grow an organic playlist while building a network in the space. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Mike.

Excellent knowledge is shared

This book had some excellent tidbits that I have already employed in my music promoting efforts. I highly recommend it!
