Two Artist Pathways

Two roads. One global platform. Your choice.

GDMG supports independent artists two ways — stay independent with marketplace tools, or get selected for a negotiated label partnership. A paid marketplace membership never guarantees signing or investment.

Pathway A

GDMG Marketplace Artists

Stay Independent. Build Your Music Business.

These artists retain their music ownership and use GDMG's marketplace and professional services to sell and promote their work.

Benefits

  • Artist storefront
  • Digital music sales
  • Transparent earnings
  • Affiliate promotion
  • Subscription-based tools
  • Optional marketing services
  • Artist analytics
  • Global fan discovery

GDMG Signed Artists

These artists are selected for negotiated record label or development partnerships.

Benefits

  • Signing advances
  • Music production budgets
  • Professional music videos
  • Marketing campaigns
  • Brand development
  • Release strategy
  • Distribution coordination
  • Artist development
  • Promotional partnerships

Agreement

Individually negotiated signing agreementSigning agreements, rights, royalties, advances, and recoupment terms are individually negotiated and documented.

Important · no guarantee of signing

A paid marketplace membership does not guarantee consideration, signing, or financial investment. The two pathways exist independently — marketplace artists retain ownership; signed artists enter negotiated partnerships with individually documented terms.
