The 30-30 Book

Hey Wendell, I got your book 30/30 career and though it was great! There is only one thing the book does not address.



It is the following situation: If some unknown but world class producer is located in the middle of nowhere, how is he going to have his music heard? Most major publisher don’t accept material unless you have an attorney or a buzz. An attorney is very expensive and starting a buzz requires a great marketing budget (90% of the time).



The problem is very similar to American Idol phenomenon, in which hundreds of thousands of people audition(filled up football stadiums)to try out for the show, when only 2% actually have talent. This is why I believe the industry has these kinds of policy. They do not got the time. The problem is this policy hurts the 2% that do actually have talent.



So my main question beside Pump Audio and Rumblefish do you know of any agency that would represent ones catalog?



Once again, I though your book was excellent!



Thank you greatly!
