Inside BBSAwards 2016 - One day with MustBeat Crew - Records - Interview
What made you decide to
create Record Label?
Natural progression… We wanted to find an outfit for our own releases in the first place, yet having had the first release out with MustBeat Crew tracks on it, we started to receive lotsa requests and demos, thus opened the label for anybody...
How did you come up with
the name?
MustBeat Crew is local group of DJ’s, musicians and party-promoters from
Budapest, chasing the dream since 2001…Choosing the same name when starting the
label in 2011 seemed to be an obvious decision!
In your years in the music business, what is the best thing about being involved with it and the worst?
Hmm, best should be the people: getting in touch and meeting peeps from
different cultures with diverse approaches on life is quite uplifting a thing!
Worst shall be the people again!! Misunderstandings, bad communication… guess,
concerning this question, music business is as the same as just life is!
What’s your most memorable experience inside the label?
Today!! LOL, but yes indeed!! I’m actually kinda trying to get
to experience the present as much as possible, so if you asked me tomorrow, my
answer still would be the same!!
Tell us a little about your role as the record label. What does your day-to-day look like?
We are a small and independent label, no daily schedule applied!! I
personally do small steps each and every day… like arranging dates of
mastering, writing an email regarding youtube monetization, making a phone call
for visual or grahpical elements, keeping artists posted on remixes, etc,
etc...
When looking into potential new artists to sign, what are some of the qualities that you find exciting?
I don’t have a clue!! Haha… Really… Anything we come across and we like, it
can come as long as it has got broken beat in it - let it be reggae, hip-hop, ghetto-funk,
glitch, breaks, drum’n’bass.
Do you have any advice to offer up to incoming artists/djs/bands?
Who am I to say anything like that?!
Instead of that, let me share the thoughts by Guru of Gang Starr on this:
They say it's lonely at the top, in whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
Actions have reactions, don't be quick to judge
You may not know the hardships people don't speak of
It's best to step back, and observe with couth
For we all must meet our moment of truth
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
Actions have reactions, don't be quick to judge
You may not know the hardships people don't speak of
It's best to step back, and observe with couth
For we all must meet our moment of truth
