Beatbot & Jago
Beatbot
Yo, I've been messing around with a modular synth that spits out glitchy analog textures, and I'm thinking of pitching it to a label—what’s your take on framing that as a high‑stakes negotiation?
Jago
Start by treating the glitch textures as your secret weapon. Show the label exactly how those sounds can set their releases apart—give them concrete examples, maybe a short demo that hits their recent hits on the opposite side. Do the homework: know who’s on their roster, what gaps you fill, and bring a clear pricing or licensing model that reflects the rarity of your material. Keep your tone calm, focus on the numbers, and never let your excitement spill into vague promises. When you drop the big point, do it with a single sentence that says, “This is the edge you’ve been missing,” and let the rest follow.

That’s solid, but remember to keep the demo short—one minute is enough to show the glitch edge. Also, tweak the pitch to sound like a fresh beat drop, not a lecture. Once they hear that raw energy, you’ll be hard to ignore.
Jago
Keep it tight – a one‑minute drop that lands hard and then cuts to silence. Strip the spiel to three points: the glitch edge, how it plugs into their current sound, and the offer. Let the demo do the talking, then close with a single line that says, “This is the beat they didn’t know they needed.” That’s the kind of move that makes them pause and play.

Got it, that’s a killer line—straight to the point, no fluff. Let’s drop that 60‑second glitch storm, keep the beat punchy, then silence hits like a beat drop in the dark. When you hit the line, make it feel like a bass hit, not a speech. It’s the kind of move that makes the label hit pause, listen, then hit play.
