While there\u2019s plenty of focus on helping artists who have already built a fan base &#8211; getting them from &#8220;B to C&#8221; (from having a foundational listener base to expanding it) &#8211; there\u2019s comparatively little attention given to the early stages of the artist journey, or &#8220;A to B.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For new artists, the challenge of going from releasing their first track to building a solid foundation of listeners can seem overwhelming. In this article, we\u2019ll explore why this &#8220;A to B&#8221; gap exists and how RouteNote is helping to fill it, offering the tools and support that independent artists need to succeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jump to any of the following sections below:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><a href=\"#gap\">The A to B gap<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#shifts\">Challenging shifts in the industry<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#routenote\">How can RouteNote help?<\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#distribution\">Distribution<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#analytics\">Analytrics &amp; Insights<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#marketing\">Marketing<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#monetisation\">Monetisation<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#loops\">Loops, sounds &amp; samples<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#advances\">Royalty advances<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#pitching\">Playlist pitching<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"#conclusion\">Conclusion<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"gap\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h3>The A to B gap &#8211; Insights from MIDiA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>MIDiA&#8217;s article, <em>The Music Industry\u2019s Weakest Link: Getting from A to B<\/em>, sheds light on a critical issue in the music industry: the lack of investment in the early stages of an artist\u2019s career. While platforms and services provide plenty of resources &#8211; just look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/are-music-listeners-interested-in-spotifys-higher-priced-subscription-tier\/\">rise of super premium<\/a> &#8211; for artists who already have a fan base (moving from &#8220;B to C&#8221;), there\u2019s far less focus on getting new artists from &#8220;A to B&#8221;. Essentially, from releasing their first track to gaining a foundation of listeners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The article makes it clear that today\u2019s new class of artists face numerous challenges. They\u2019re dealing with fragmented discovery methods, a lack of clear pathways to growth, and a competitive landscape where breaking through the noise is harder than ever. MIDiA argues that to truly support artists, the industry must shift its focus to early-stage development and invest more in helping artists build the core fan base they need to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"shifts\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h3>Challenging shifts in the industry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"3120\" height=\"2080\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/rsz_pexels-ivan-samkov-4162581_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-104108 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The music industry has shifted dramatically in recent years. Gone are the days when radio or <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/labour-budget-uk-grassroots-music-frustration\/\">small venue tours<\/a> could provide the stepping stones for emerging acts. With the rise of streaming platforms and social media, discovery is now more fragmented than ever. Artists must navigate a complex web of platforms like TikTok, Spotify, and Instagram to gain any traction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For new artists, the challenge is not only being discovered but also being able to sustain their career long enough to grow their fan base. As Tatiana Cirisano of MIDiA points out, many artists today struggle to gain momentum because they don\u2019t have the resources or support to get from their first release to a solid foundation of listeners. With algorithms that favour established artists and a lack of clear curation or tastemaking, the odds are stacked against newcomers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<a name=\"routenote\"><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h3>How can RouteNote help?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At RouteNote, we understand the challenges independent artists face in the early stages of their career.
