Unsigned artist A&R check

Use when an A&R scout at a record label is deciding whether an electronic or indie artist is worth a meeting. Reads where and how often the artist plays, which labels they have released on, where people search for them, and their social following, then summarises traction and what is still unknown.

# Unsigned artist A&R check

For one artist name. The Resident Advisor and Discogs ids from step 1 carry into later steps.

## 1. Live traction

1. Find the artist with @[Resident Advisor · Search](alexandria:ra-co/events/search) (types artist) and read @[Resident Advisor · Artist](alexandria:ra-co/events/artist) with a high events_limit. Count shows in the last 12 months, cities and headline versus support slots.
2. For two or three repeat venues, read @[Resident Advisor · Venue](alexandria:ra-co/events/venue) to judge room size and reputation.

## 2. Release history

3. Find the artist with @[Discogs · Search](alexandria:discogs-com/releases/search) (type artist) and list releases with @[Discogs · Artist releases](alexandria:discogs-com/releases/artist_releases) sorted by year. Note self-released versus label releases and which labels.

## 3. Audience

4. Read @[Trends · Interest by region](alexandria:firecrawl-trends/trends/interest_by_region) for the artist name at country or city resolution.
5. Find social accounts with @[Oriane · Search TikTok profiles](alexandria:oriane/tiktok/profiles-search) and @[Oriane · Search Instagram profiles](alexandria:oriane/instagram/profiles-search) by name, then read the matching profile for followers and recent posts.

## Write the A&R note

- **Live:** shows per month, cities, venue tier.
- **Releases:** count, labels, any current label tie.
- **Audience:** top regions and social followers.
- **Verdict:** meet now, watch or pass, with the reason.
- **Unknowns:** streaming numbers and contract status are not in these sources.
- **Sources:** cite every figure to the capability and record it came from. Say what could not be found rather than guessing.
