Throwback to ADE continues. Today revisiting an interview series with Spinnin’ Records, a Dutch powerhouse label. 5 months after this piece they were acquired for $100 million by Warner.

One of my interview questions which probably still stands in 2024 - 

“If you only had $100 to spend on marketing an artist, what would you do?”

Meindert: If you have a limited budget, it means you have to be creative. You have to invest more in yourself, and what you can think up. I would suggest organizing a remix competition, or doing a pop up show, to get more leverage.
