Now Accepting Submissions for upcoming
"Worldwide Various Artists Compilation Releases"
Country Music (Modern and Traditional)
Country Gospel (Modern and Traditional)
Nuts and Bolts. Getting your songs played on the radio worldwide is a task for seasoned professionals in this industry
who love this business, know this business and have worked hard to earn their reputations as companies that DJs take
notice of - so, we'll take care of the hardest part. All you need to do is submit your best work(s) and if it(they) is(are)
selected for inclusion, that's when we take the next steps to getting your music heard! So, what happens after you
submit your music? Curtis Andrews will listen to your submission(s) in the genres of "Country Music" or "Country Gospel
Music" and you are notified within 30 days if your track(s) have been selected for inclusion on upcoming worldwide
Ready Records releases. If Mr. Andrews finds that more than 22 works qualify for inclusion, the remaining qualifying
submissions will automatically be considered for the subsequent release. After he narrows it down to the 'best,' he then
narrows it down to the 'best of the best'
1.) Mr. Andrews looks for clean music tracks with clear vocals.
2.) He looks for a 'good' sound and feel of the track.
3.) Originality is always a plus.
4.) When a submitted track is chosen for inclusion and the Recording Artist agrees to release the song, the Recording
Artist will submit the inclusion promotional fee of $200 which includes distribution to over 600 radio stations worldwide
(300 Country Stations / 300 Gospel Stations). The value of this service far exceeds the fee and the value of the
relationship Ready Records has established with DJs worldwide for over 20 years has far more value than the average
aspiring Recording Artist can afford. It is obvious that Mr. Andrews is not getting rich off of aspiring Recording Artists, his
greatest profit comes from the satisfaction of helping others. He devotes a great deal of time and heart to this process
and is content with primarily covering his costs. It remains that "You" just want to get your music on a lot of radio stations
and the bottomline benefits to the Recording Artist, as we covered earlier, are that Ready Records Various Artists
Compilations are recognized by the DJs worldwide as quality productions and having excellent appeal in their
corresponding markets, therefore, getting "Your" music played!

Mail your submission to:
Curtis Andrews, President
Ready Records
308 Latonia Avenue
Kissimmee, FL 34741
Terms Of Inclusion: If your song(s) qualify for inclusion on the next upcoming Ready Records release, you will be
contacted. Compilation fees for inclusion on the upcoming release are paid after the artist is contacted and the artist
places the final order for inclusion. Songs that are selected for inclusion will be included on the final master compilation
release when the minimal inclusion fee is submitted. Inclusion fee is due at time of compilation mastering. The modest
inclusion fee of only $200 includes inclusion in the next subsequent Ready Records Compilation CD to over 600 Radio
Stations Worldwide (300 Country Radio Stations / 300 Gospel Radio Stations).
This compilation provides quality exposure and will put your music in front of and in the ears of over 600 DJs around the
globe and their listeners. Compilation space is very limited, an average of 22 tracks per release is available. One track
per artist on each compilation release. Ready Records artists who have appeared on prior releases may be considered
for two tracks on any given compilation if the artist requests this consideration (due to high demand and minimal space
available per compilation there is no guarantee any artist may have two tracks on one release).
As you can see, the fee is minimal and set at an affordable price point which allows Curtis Andrews to do his job
thoroughly and allows aspiring recording artists the valuable actual exposure they deserve.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions:

Warning to aspiring recording artists: Beware of the term "contract" - that is usually the bright red flag that tells you
something is wrong. If a company wants a percentage of your earnings, they must prove their ability to promote you
effectively and be able to prove they have the clout and investment capital (usually millions of dollars) in order to get you
"famous." If they don't measure up, they don't deserve a contract from you. If you sign, then you have signed your rights
away in a split second and they will then have the right to take your money, whether or not they fulfill all of their
"promises." A more obvious red flag is you have a "contract" and you "still" have to spend "your own money" in order to
promote yourself - the truth is, you can do that on your own and have full control of your money.
You should know that, when your music is submitted to radio stations, independent DJs worldwide 'personally' select
the music they spin. This means that DJs, most of which are very busy, primarily listen to and consider submissions by
reputable record labels who have an established track record with them and are respected by the DJs worldwide. The
amount of compilations they send out is irrelevant because your music must be 'heard' not merely sent out! Some new
companies claim to be "major record labels" (implying they are of the Columbia, Sony caliber), yet they have no concrete
experience in the music industry, no established contacts or presence and can only 'at best' exhaustively pound the
pavement in the hope of getting their artists on the air on, likely, a handful of stations. They may show impressive
mailing lists (which anyone can buy) and 'claim' to have these as contacts. These bottom-feeders prey off of aspiring
recording artists with stars in their eyes and hopes for stardom convincing them to invest countless dollars for pointless
travel and events. Unfortunately, new artists fall prey to these companies and all too often realize they are being
bamboozled after the damage is done. The artist ends up with no valid exposure or recognition this way. In fact, just
being associated with a record label that has underhanded practices can affect the credibility of a recording artist in this
industry. Bad news travels fast! Bombarding message boards and pounding on the chest is no substitute for true
results.
In fairness, there are also many good record companies - however, on the flip-side, there are also no guarantees in this
industry. One thing we can count on is that, if a DJ receives a CD from a record label that has made a bad reputation for
themselves, it's common sense what happens to that CD.
A Recording Artist's best bet is to associate with a company that is established and is capable of getting the artist
passed those mysterious closed doors.
The Right Place is Ready Records, because Ready Records has a tremendous respect for the industry and its DJs.
Ready Records has always conducted itself in a manner consistent with these values. Ready Records also has a
tremendous respect for Recording Artists. The industry has recognized Ready Records' dedication to quality releases
for their artists and has responded by supporting Ready Records' accomplishments of establishing the higher standard
in this business to be emulated. A record Label that is 'out there' and doing good business will receive recognition from
sources outside of itself - this means acknowledgement from entities that have no connection to the label itself and,
therefore, are legitimate kudos. Serious Recording Artists who want blanket worldwide exposure of their talent on the
radio need to connect with a record label with the caliber of Ready Records. You need a record label who can give you
actual radio play exposure to hundreds of radio stations not just by simply sending your material to DJs, but actually
having the preceding reputation that will get your music on their radio station and heard! That's where Ready Records
shines and stands apart from the rest!
Much respect to all Recording Artists
in this wonderful world of music!
Best of luck to all of you!
