[@michaelboudreau6207]

Loved the bit at 44:00 about the spontaneity of meetings. It’s always awesome to get a random brainstorming session started cause they lead to some of the best formed ideas

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Michael Boudreau totally agree!🙏🏼

[@jacktigerz]

My favourite part of this show is when Budi talks about the importance of Spotify and the differents ways to reach the people with your own music ! Thank you for these incredible contents and keep it up !

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Jacktigerz yes, so crucial!! Glad to hear you enjoyed this episode, stay tuned for more😊

[@wherehouseedm]

Thanks guys! I can’t express my appreciation for your consistent knowledge bombs.

[@julienfromflorida]

this dude has the most amazing voice i have ever heard

[@CHVBEATS]

My favorite part is at 11:20 when they're talking about the manager role. Also these podcast are amazing and very informative. Keep them coming guys

[@lawless7488]

You fixed the audio with the reupload again my favorite part is 22:38 because you talk about how to get a new artist traction and a fan base I found this very interesting because I myself just started producing music recently

[@lawless7488]

Ps I love the sanctuary pack

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

So happy you found it useful!!❤️ Wishing you the best on your new journey of producing!

[@julienfromflorida]

My favorite part: the fact that Drew is chugging a Stella Artois lol Best Belgian Beer on the market

[@WillyJunior]

you know precisely zero about belgian beer

[@papercut8143]

@@WillyJunior lol true, I just like my Stella 💁‍♂️

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

😂👌🏼

[@noebarcza3067]

loving these podcasts, my favourite part was at 21:12 about promoting yourself

[@flyoverfredusa]

I've been following Budi for years, absolute beast

[@brianczernik]

Lots of gems -- great interview and content. My favs: 10:37 - Role of manager and artist. When I started that was something we could have used. And 25:44 - Story pitching. I'm big on the brand and "story" you present and feel that is so important in all businesses. That is something I find writers (as in books) don't think about much. "If I write a great book" they will come syndrome.

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Brian Czernik so stoked you enjoyed it! I totally agree with story pitching, it’s what sets you apart from others and lets people connect with you!

[@mihndpmr9723]

This is one of the best episodes I slept on this one. Definitely informative and gonna help me step up my Spotify game.

[@alreadyit]

loving the show guys. favorite part was hearing budi’s view on how to approach spotify and playlists

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Scott Young thanks for the love and for watching!🙏🏼

[@JonStar]

Please keep up the work on this show, we need more like this! I look forward to see you bringing other producers from the scene to talk through their journey. That will bring a lot of insight and inspiration to the upcoming artist I'm sure!!!

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Jon Star that’s our goal! Is there anyone you’d like to see?🤔

[@JonStar]

THE CYMATICS SHOW bring Zetta to the show haha he is the Brazilian producer who has already worked with you guys in the past. Other than that, bringing people’s idols is be fun. I watched kompany’s podcast when you guys discussed about bringing eliminate too. That would be really cool as we don’t often hear about these guys real life experiences. Surely there is a lot to learn. Thanks for taking a time to communicate haha loving the show o/

[@loreabby]

11:15 when you guys asked how a producer can get good at production and get Good at social media...and I completely agree

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Good production and marketing will get you far!🙏🏼

[@AniruddhDoki]

47:33 marshmello's marketing strategy and your discussion on how his helmet and face is they key to his success was very informative and gave me an idea for my marketing strats

[@Cooper_the_Wizard]

my favorite part is 14:37 with the insight about bootlegging, also just before that about the benefits of self management.

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

[@renkaizaki4764]

[@ItsMorganVega]

A really good insight for new artists on how to get traction on Spotify. Well done guys! Favorite part 41:10 when talking about being Yourself and not being afraid that it would hurt Your brand. Being ourselves is what can make a lot of right connections. Looking forward to the next episode!

[@shinobibeatz225]

Cymatics is on the ri$e!!! Gotta luv this company!!!!

[@kylebias7303]

Love these podcasts! I liked how Budi talked about playlisting, and how he explained the different streaming platforms at 4:00

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Kyle Bias so glad you’re loving the podcast, thanks for watching!!

[@garvenroc]

12:16 the best part for me guys honestly is important to know what u want first before u have someone to help u doing it great

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Garven Roc for sure! Getting clear on your vision and goal so you can tailor your next move🙌🏼

[@okuboxsamurai]

32:19 YES YES YES!!! :)

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

WANDERFOOL Tik Tok is the place to be right now!!

[@BandaDK]

favorite part is definitely around 13:10, when you start talking pros and cons of soundcloud!

[@josiah4905]

Thanks for this really helpful and inspiring interview! Around 15:50 is maybe the best part for me but i enjoyed the whole thing! Keep going Cymatics!

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

28:40 I definitely feel like I could gain a lot from learning to write copy and I appreciate you guys bringing this up because it's something very important that is so easily overlooked

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

hackjilton absolutely! Copy is so important🙏🏼

[@alwa-]

I love the Cynamatics Show. It´s so interesting to hear successful people talking about how they raised to the "top". My favorite part was at 19:25, as you talked about Messenger and how easy it is nowadays to connect with others and build up communitys or deepen relationships. ;) PS: can´t wait to watch the next video

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

alwa - messenger is awesome! So happy you enjoyed it and are looking forward to future episodes❤️❤️

Hey, thx for insane interview, but actually my favourite part is on 10:36

[@vincezambrano2731]

so much gold Budi is dropping i especially love @25:00 where he talks about small artists/ producers just starting out. also what was that 7 day challenge steve was talking about? @23:13

[@prodhulsee]

Yet again like the other podcast this has benefited me, I got lost in time watching this. The whole podcast was useful and great. (Nice choice of beer 🍺) 0:00-56:23 🖤

[@monstalung]

my favorite part is when Drew said he likes not knowing what he is doing the day of sometimes, and he likes it like that, I can relate because its how i feel about doing video series stuff, I feel like it locks me in, and I'm to creative at times to be locked in, so I decided to just create consistent content (when I launch this new campaign at the end of June), and let it be housed under a series name, but let my creativity run wild. we will see if that works😉

[@Treefingersmusic]

Loved all the Spotify advice! Thinking of the playlists in terms of Spotify made, and user made is something to work on

[@toppieceproductions161]

29:00 great advice for promoting yourself, thinking about how to go about turning yourself and your product into a brand. This was definitely informative through the entire podcast. Thanks for sharing!!👊

[@kolbeballard2914]

Great show! I love when you brought up Marshmello and shared some interesting stuff there, Mello has been a huge inspiration to me and you guys have done so much to advance my music career from the insane packs to the insightful youtube videos!

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Kolbe Ballard thanks for the love!❤️

[@One_Deeper_]

really been loving these, such great knowledge from all the people on the show, keep it up. Also really loved he mentioned you need to have a good product to get traction, I think people forget that sometimes

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Steven Rimoli thanks for watching, so glad you’re enjoying the show!

[@hydrix6564]

13:54 I would say was the part I got the most out of because I rely so heavily on soundcloud for posting my music and its helpful to hear peoples thoughts and opinions on the subject. Also other alternatives and ideas when it comes to sharing and posting music.

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

BIØHZRD yes!! So happy you found it helpful🙏🏼❤️

[@sambuzzmusic]

12.15 "your job is not to only make music,but represent yourself" Tasting the manager side of music is pretty fun,and i think the quote is really viable as engaging with fans. Oh also using different channels for uploading bootleg.

[@FatherFunk]

Great show guys!

[@kieranwoolston1459]

My favourite part was the spotify cpm rate, really useful information i didnt know about. 5:20

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Kieran Woolston 🙏🏼❤️

[@ricepatch2]

3:22 gives me hope ;-; thanks guys this entire video is absolutely wonderful

[@friiiz1]

23:38 I liked this part most because I'm also a very little (and quite young) artist and I'm intending to make some money from my music to buy some Plug-Ins and of course Cymatics Packs. This podcast is so interesting and informative and also inspiring. Keep this up! Edit: Has the winner of the previous giveaway been chosen/announced yet?

[@highestpace]

My favorite part is when Drew and Steven talked about their... I don't wanna say laziness but like their type of planning things and how different they plan things to Budi xD

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Paul Cheez Production Everyone has a different workflow, just gotta do what works best for you!😊🙌🏼

[@spockandstepr1241]

28:46 thats as close as I can get. but I really like when you explain copyright.

[@GoodBoy-ty8km]

My favourite part is when Budi says the word "the" at 13:57

[@septim8312]

Really interested by the trap nation relationship, especially with the controversy they had. Interesting to have an inside the view. 17:20

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Septim so glad you enjoyed it!❤️ Any other inside information you’d love to hear about?

[@septim8312]

@@thecymaticsshow6659 Actually yes! As the music industry is really built on relationships and already being in the business, what would be the best way to put a foot in the door? I imagine getting to know bigger artists helps (like via Facebook or other platforms) but what other ways or more niche ways would you recommend? I am currently using Soonvibes (french music A&R system based on votes) and their professional feedback system to get my music heard by big guys like Counterstrike (Label owner and DnB DJ/producer).

[@iniyaaaan]

14:24 Those info about bootlegs.... Really hard time! Even San Holo said the record labels are suing artists for even the bootlegs!

[@rushabhmehta7368]

My favourite part was at 28:40 when y'all were talking about the copywriting part, it never came to my mind before. In my Instagram page we used to write basic captions when releasing a track and not using many hashtags to get going, but now have to go about it again. Also, whenever we tried to get to a big label we usually got a response like "Your track is great, but right now we don't want to have it. Send us your other tracks too, maybe something can come up". Maybe this was happening due to lack of mail writing skills? Looks like I have to do some homework about it. Also had a question on getting yourself on Spotify, I have been looking around and got Amuse as the answer, but are there any other apps or service that can help for free for creating a artist profile on Spotify? And thanks for this awesome video!🙌🏻

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Rushabh Mehta yes! Copywriting is so crucial and can make all the difference in spreading your music! Thanks for watching🙏🏼

My Musicians Neighbors threw a brick into my window so they can hear this better, 38:00 I love the vibe of Steven in this part also the tik tok info so great.

[@thecymaticsshow6659]

Kyler Chin the playlisting information was awesome!! Glad you enjoyed it🙏🏼❤️

[@Danhosaur]

Personally I don’t feel like branding for myself, as I only want my “products” as a hobby and don’t want “anything serious” with my music. Although I still think it’s interesting to hear about how to promote yourself, and get the basic idea of an example schedule. But I think my favorite part was when Drew said he only followed Cardi B for her brand, and not so much for her music, as she’s tending hard atm - it’s actually interesting that some only follow for how people become successful and become inspired by others’ success.

[@ProdbyCeeSick]

Great episode fellas👍 Can’t wait for the new pack to drop. I pretty much ran through the The drip pack🙅🏽‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️💯✌🏼. 2:42

[@nathanbryers]

So… when as a consumer, I stream Spotify full time rather than downloading the tracks to my device - does that equate to the artist getting more credit/income?

[@yoshmusic6175]

honestly him introducing himself haha is my fav part

[@dsands15]

I Really enjoyed the name dropping you guys did to give us some one we could picture and compare to. (Marshmello, dj khaled, cardi B) big names that make it easy to go look on Instagram and look. Great video👍🏽
