Miami based DJ Adrian Blaga who owns and runs the Magician on Duty label is a man who's growing in multiple facets of the music industry. 

 

“There's no doubt about it. If you wanna be the best at what you do, you need to show up and you need to be better than everybody else”

 

We dig deep into what it takes to climb the ladder as DJ, producer, and label owner. And the importance of discipline and consistency to be the best at what you do.

 

“The more you do one thing, the better you get. That's how you start. There's no discussion that after a while you're gonna get better at it. It's proven”

 

Adrian reveals the most effective approach for submitting your music to labels and what to avoid…

 

…so that you get signed, not blacklisted.

 

And importantly, how to overcome the fears, insecurities, and self doubt that are holding you back from sending out your music.

 

“Life takes you in different ways and there are a lot of times that opportunities got presented to me. And then I just took them. Some worked some didn't but from each one I got to learn something that helped me”.

 

Adrian dropped so much knowledge and answered so many of the burning questions that I constantly hear from people about sending their music to labels.

 

There's such a great vibe, ethos and professionalism in Adrian's desire to support artists.
