I was wondering if anybody on this forum is a member of pmp worldwide and if so (or if not) what your opinions are on these type of sites...It seems to be legit and clearly some producers that have joined the site are getting placements on major albums...Would be interested to hear others opinions..

It's legit, but I didn't find it very useful when I used it for a year. I got more sales from myspace and soundclick then I did off that site, not major, but I could careless. Most of all the beat descriptions the major artists are looking for on the site says 'Looking for lots of 808s, crazy bass, a certified hit'. Also about 95% of the descriptions said '**ALL ORIGINAL NO SAMPLES!**' So it was kind of a joke to me.

I had a bad experience with them. They do reoccuring billing and after I quit, they billed me 4 times before I stopped getting billed. They were good about reversing the charges but 4 times is very bad IMO. Each time, they encoraged me to stay, it didn't feel "professional" to me.

The other thing is that you really are paying a pretty extranious fee IMO for what you get. Unless you really are not trying, you can usually reach many of the artists who's AR's are on PMP by just hitting people up directly, even through social networking sites. I would say a few good contacts would be better.



I have heard PMP was shady. This is back in the day. Supposadly some AR would get paid to associate themselves with PMP but not intend on actually using it. Also, some of their producer sucess stories were from people who were chosen by PMP that were already pretty established. They got paid to be on the site or atleast free acounts. These people were going to be succesful either way. I know the second is true, not necesarily shady but misleading.
