The first ever UK DVD has been released detailing how people interested in a future in the recording industry can now enter the often closed scene. The DVD is available at http://www.souwannabe.com and showcases a plethora of job positions from Singers, Artist Management, Production, Promotion etc.

The DVD contains interviews from top UK personalities that have worked with 50 cent, Black Eyes Peas, Westlife, Atomic Kitten, Simply Red, Pavarotti, Annie Lennox and many more.

A career in the music business has never been in such demand. Young people not only want to have the glitz and the glamour reserved for successful recording artists, but they are increasingly looking at alternative careers in artist management, production or executives in record companies as a way to fulfill their music business ambitions. 

So U Wanna Be is a new company put together to share some of the lesser known secrets that can help individuals gain the competitive edge in a cut-throat and very competitive industry.

Information on how to achieve success in the industry is limited and where available, people have to wade through volumes of information in chunky and expensive publications. Another important issue is that much of the information does not relate to the UK Market. 

Former Warner Bros. recording artist and MOBO Award winner, Trevor Fisher (Director of So U Wanna Be Ltd) discovered this first hand when he was on his way up early in his career. "No-one showed us what we should do, we were naive, and didn't see the pitfalls, we didn't think there were any", he said, "I still see kids today making the same mistakes I did, so I produced a full length DVD, and a range of educational tools, developed to help give them the inside track so they at least have some basic knowledge of how the industry works and maybe avoid some of the less attractive elements".

People who purchase the DVD will benefit from the knowledge of industry experts who have worked with some of the biggest UK and US recording artists including Dr Dre, Eminem, Eve, Brian McFadden, Misteeq, Girls Aloud, Blue, Westlife, Javine, Wu Tang Clan, Miss Dynamite, Simply Red, Atomic Kitten, Pavarotti, Annie Lennox, Marty Pellow (Wet wet wet), Black Eye Peas, Raghav, Beverley Knight, The Verve, Dido and many more.

The DVD contains areas dedicated to explaining 

  • Artist Management
  • Vocal Training
  • Music Management
  • Production
  • Legal 
  • Societies 
  • Studio Engineering
  • Publishing
  • Marketing & PR
  • Radio Promotion
The DVD is available to order via the So U Wannabe website http://www.souwannabe.com at the price of just $19.99.  "So U Wannabe In the Music Business" is the only mainstream music business training DVD available for the UK music industry.

The URLwire Effect:
"URLwire is without question the most effective way to tell the right people in the online world about your web site"
-- CoolShopping.com

My experience with URLWire has been entirely positive. I received coverage (and links!) from key sites and in e-newsletters, one of which had over 500,000 readers. Resulting traffic has been more than impressive. URLwire
demonstrated to me that it's the prime choice for announcing a web site. Edwin Hayward
