Ahora hablemos de una de las partes
más importantes de todo lo que tiene que ver con el mundo musical: Las contrataciones
o los acuerdos entre las empresas o disqueras y los cantantes. Está claro que
ninguno de estos artistas trabajan solo por el arte o por amor a la música(pueda
que alguno si pero no son muchos) , las disqueras que se benefician con la música
tienen contratos con los cantantes en
los que se pactan todo tipo de acuerdos para producir discos.
Los contratos firmados
con los intérpretes generalmente son para producir 3 discos, si éste tiene un
buen desempeño en la venta de sus albumes y singles entonces
el contrato se renueva, siempre y cuando estén de acuerdo ambas partes. Si por
alguna razón no quiere seguir y decide cambiar de discográfica sin que haya caducado
su anterior contrato, entonces la discográfica procede a poner una demanda
alegando incumplimiento de contrato,
lo cual se arregla generalmente con el pago de una cierta cantidad de dinero, obligando al artista a que siga con la discográfica, o
la anulación del contrato.
Debido a la disminución en la venta de discos, generada en parte por la
piratería, las compañías discográficas empezaron a implementar un nuevo modelo
de contrato, llamado "contrato 360º", que a diferencia del
convencional, exige al artista ceder parte de las ganancias obtenidas por
cualquier actividad en la que éste genere dinero. Por ejemplo, si el artista
realiza una presentación en televisión, debe dar un porcentaje de las ganancias
a la discográfica, y los discos musicales pasan a ser un objeto de promoción.
La relación entre los artistas y las discográficas no siempre son
buenas, y en ocasiones las compañías frenan la edición de determinado trabajo
musical al considerarlo poco comercial o, en ocasiones, por razones de censura. También existen conflictos debido al reparto de
beneficios y quién es el dueño de los derechos de reproducción de las
grabaciones.
Now let's talk about one of the most important parts of everything that has to do with the musical world: The contracts or agreements between companies or record labels and singers. It is clear that none of these artists work only for art or love of music (can that any other but are not many), the record companies who benefit from music have contracts with singers in all kinds of are agreed agreements to produce disks.
Contracts with interpreters are generally to produce 3 discs, if it has a good performance in selling their albums and singles then the contract is always renewed and when both parties agree. If for some reason does not want to follow and decides to change record without any expired his previous contract, then the music comes to a lawsuit alleging breach of contract, which is usually arranged with the payment of a certain amount of money, forcing the artist to continue with the record, or cancellation of the contract.
Due to the decline in record sales, generated in part by piracy, record companies began to implement a new model contract called "Contract 360", which unlike conventional, requires the artist to give up some of the gains for any activity that it generates money. For example, if the artist made a presentation on television, you should give a percentage of profits to the record, and music discs become an object of promotion.
The relationship between artists and record labels are not always good, sometimes slow editing companies given musical work to consider little commercial or sometimes, for reasons of censorship. There are also conflicts due to profit sharing and who owns the copyright of the recordings.
