For the purpose of this
agreement, Pigboat Recording Studio—a registered business in the state
of Washington, U.S.A.—will be referred to as ‘PRS Distro.’ The artist(s)
signing the agreement, will be referred to as ‘the client.’
In exchange for a fee (that
figure will be given to you by a PRS Distro sales representative), PRS
Distro guarantees the following to the client:
1. That extensive
research, maintenance, and market-hunting has been invested, and
continues to be expended, to ensure that our data-base of non-commercial
radio-stations, is kept free of dead-markets, informed as to any changes
in the same, such as format/genre-switches, and is in a state of
on-going expansion. Through our research, direct contacts, and
market-verification procedures, CD’s sent out, go to where they need to
go.
2. That PRS Distro.
will send the client’s music to the proper station, i.e., that an
alternative rock sampling, will hit a station that plays alternative
rock, and that the same station has been verified to be of the type that
‘receives unsolicited material’ to be housed in their music library for
play-consideration.
3. Airplay CANNOT
be guaranteed! However, PRS Distro. will guarantee to all clients
involved, that their music cannot be played on radio stations, and will
NEVER be played, if a station or stations do not have their music.
Therefore, through the use of our data-base of coast-to-coast, active
radio stations, our screening process (performed by our sales
representatives, and other quality-control procedures, which ensures
that the music, regardless of type, style, or genre, is of the minimum
bar required for air-time consideration), the odds of some airplay
occurring, will rise dramatically. Something to consider: If your music
is good, and we put it into the hands of several hundred radio stations
that have an open-door policy for submitted music, chances for actual
air-time exposure will no longer be in the realm of fantasy, but will be
real, and tangible.
4. According to
current industry standards, the number one way that recording contracts
are landed, is BY tracked airplay on radio stations, such as
community, non-profit organizational, and college stations.
5. We guarantee
that any music submitted, will not, and will never be, distributed to
any individual, party, group, or otherwise, other than what has been
contracted for. Permission may be asked of the client to forward their
work to interested parties, such as record labels and/or producers
interested in signing, or otherwise working with the client. This
net-working feature is performed free of charge by PRS Distro,
and again, never without prior permission.
6. All CD’s shipped
by PRS Distro are sent USPS Media Rate. The client will be given that information(using e-mail as a primary means of communication), which
will include a list of all stations that have received their work, the
station’s call letters, city and state locales, and any available public
request-line telephone number that an individual station may have.
Information of this type, is often used by artists for placement on
their Web sites, or for publication purposes otherwise highlighting the
client’s work.
Along with all other
agreements made between PRS Distro. and the client, the client agrees to
not use any information provided by PRS Distro. in any financial,
competitive manner. Specifically, any information concerning PRS
Distro’s data-base, its contents, its details, or any information
gleaned from proof-of-delivery that PRS Distro may provide, will not be
used by the client—to form, copy, or otherwise ‘clone’, to manufacture
their own database for commercial use, or in any manner, professional,
or otherwise, that then seeks to garner a financial benefit.
