So get to know more people in the record biz, and let them get to know you! Please join us and bring plenty of business cards. All are welcome, details below.

“ONE OF THE BEST OPPORTUNITIES TO NETWORK” IN THE BIZ (Music Connection Magazine)

“NARIP brunches have been a HUGE benefit for me and my company,” says Geodesic Management’s Dan Strader from New York. “In just a few hours at a Los Angeles brunch, I was able to establish a presence in that city and make solid connections that I still use to this day. Networking brunches have now begun in New York, and the connections we’ve made are career-changing.”

WHAT TO EXPECT AT A NARIP BRUNCH

For over 25 years NARIP (and its previous incarnation, the Los Angeles Music Network) have hosted brunches to enable record and music industry professionals to mix and mingle in a comfortable setting with a bit of food. For some time had NARIP Brunches in restaurants but found private spaces to be more comfortable and welcoming. When an individual or organization hosts a brunch, NARIP requests that basic food and drink items be available, and the rest is up to their discretion and budget.

REGISTER NOW

Please register online by Friday, June 16, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. so we can prepare enough refreshments for everyone. To register now, just scroll down.

NARIP Advertising Music Supervisor Pitch Session

with Droga5’s Ryan Barkan

Droga5-5-UP

 

 in New York, Thu Apr 13

 

IS ***SOLD OUT***

  WHAT TO EXPECT AT A NARIP MUSIC SUPERVISOR SESSION:PREPARATION IS KEYNARIP Music Supervisor Sessions are limited to an enrollment of just 16 people to pitch (we offer the observe-only option at this Atlanta event, pitch not included) .  About one week prior to NARIP’s Session, all pitch registrants will get a brief of the guest supervisor’s then-CURRENT music needs. Each pitch registrant will have a chance to pitch in response to the music briefs provided and get immediate feedback to music pitched. Each participant must submit 7 songs (MP3s only please) 36 hours prior to NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session. Please note that due to time constraints you will only be able to pitch your TOP 2 or 3 songs for consideration and immediate feedback (more, if time permits). This process takes the mystery out of why a piece of music does or doesn’t fit. On-the-spot feedback enables registrants to re-work tracks and re-submit, which creates a much higher probability to get them licensed (choose well!).If you do not have music that matches the current needs of the supervisor, fear not! You can still attend and present the top three songs in your catalog.  Make sure the songs are unique and captivating. This is helpful because a music supervisor’s needs change constantly. To optimize impact of music you pitch at NARIP’s Music Supervisor Session, we highly recommend that you target the briefs. Good luck and see you there!BEFORE NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
       
  • NARIP prepares a one-sheet for each participant including your photo and bio for the guest music supervisor to use and review at the event, and to take with him after the event.  We will request your photo and bio one week prior to the event.  In preparing these materials, we recommend you focus on brief career highlights in your bio and have a professional photo available.
  •    
  • Approximately 5 to 7 days prior to NARIP’s Session, you will be sent a project brief describing several cues needed for a current project(s) of our guest speaker.  These often include reference songs or links so that you can hear exactly what he seeks or needs to replace.
  •    
  • You will submit your tracks with writer, publisher and other rights holder information that will also be supplied to the music supervisor during and after NARIP’s Session.
  •    
  • You will get submission and meta-tagging guidelines, and mentoring as to how best to prepare your music for submission.
DURING NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
       
  • You will get to play at least two or three songs (sometimes more, if time permits) for the guest music supervisor who will provide feedback to you for each one.
  •    
  • NARIP moderator asks very specific questions to help participants learn and understand how to modify their tracks to make these more place-able for the guest supervisor’s specific needs at hand.
AFTER NARIP’S PITCH SESSION:
       
  • NARIP provides guest music supervisor with participant one-sheets and all music from NARIP’s Session, including notes detailing the guest music supervisor’s interest in specific tracks.
  •    
  • If requested by guest music supervisor, NARIP conveys additional tracks, remixes, instrumentals etc. to him.
  •    
  • If approved by guest music supervisor, NARIP provides his contact details to registrants.
DON’T GET LOST IN THE CROWD: SMALL IS THE NEW BIGNARIP Sessions are deliberately kept small and intimate, which is just one reason they work so well and why participants have enjoyed over 700 placements (and counting!) to date. Limited enrollment of 16 people per session guarantees that registrants meet and get face-time with our guest.OVER 700 PLACEMENTS FROM NARIP MUSIC SUPERVISOR SESSIONS
Our small format works! NARIP Session participants have placed over 700 tracks and counting as a direct result of NARIP Music Supervisor Sessions.  Other benefits include new publishing deals for NARIP members, creative collaborations and co-writes, strategic introductions to other music supervisors and placement experts, new representation for composers and much more.NARIP’S BIGGEST PLACEMENT TO DATE : VODAFONEClick here to read about NARIP’s biggest placement to date in a Vodafone campaign (Oct 2014) that paid handsomely and launched a career.  Other brand placements include McDonalds and AT&T ads, among others.Placements secured and professional relationships formed through NARIPs music supervisor sessions have earned praise and many placements!

ABOUT RYAN BARKAN
Barkan-RyanRyan Barkan grew up in Virginia, the youngest of 4 boys, in a house filled with music, sports, dogs, cats and a family business to keep everyone busy.  On July 9, 1992, Ryan attended his first-ever concert (The Connells) and knew that music was his calling.  While attending Virginia Tech, Ryan was a College Marketing Representative with Virgin Records — some releases he supported include N.E.R.D, Smashing Pumpkins and Gorillaz.  He has also worked at Blockbuster Music as well as interned at four radio stations. In 2004, Ryan moved to NYC to take a job at EMI Music Publishing, followed by a seven-year run at independent music publisher/management firm Primary Wave Music, where he rose to the level of Partner/Executive Creative Director of Licensing.  Primary Wave’s catalogs and artists included Kurt Cobain/Nirvana, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, Daniel Johnston, Hall & Oates, Reggie Watts and CeeLo Green, among others.  Ryan then moved to Warner Bros. Records, where he held the title of Vice President, Creative Licensing for Ads and worked on releases from the Black Keys, Damon Albarn, Tom Petty, Kimbra and Royal Blood, to name a few. Ryan has brokered partnerships between Wieden+Kennedy and cult-musician Daniel Johnston, as well as between the Martin Agency and Def Leppard.  He has licensed music to numerous brands, including Apple, Activision, Sony, Google, Nike, ESPN, GMC, Buick, Toyota, Nissan, Southwest Airlines, J.C. Penney, Chase, Burger King, Axe, Mary Kay and Pizza Hut. Ryan is an avid live-music photographer and shoots mostly on assignment for BrooklynVegan.com.  He lives in Manhattan with his wife, daughter, Sunny, and a Cavalier King Charles named Taco.

Come meet this career-maker.
