Getting Signed

The belief that signing a record contract will almost infallibly lead to some measure of success— the “ideology of getting signed,” as Arditi defines it—is alive and well. Though streaming, social media, and viral content have turned the recording industry upside down in one sense, the record contract and its mythos still persist.

Credinta ca semnarea unui contract de inregistrare va duce aproape infailibil la o anumita masura de succes - „ideologia semnarii”, asa cum o defineste Arditi, este vie si sanatoasa. Desi streamingul, retelele sociale si continutul viral au transformat industria inregistrarilor cu capul in jos intr-un sens, contractul de inregistrare si miturile sale persista.
