Hi, 
Since several years i'm interested in de music industry. Consumers listen different to their music then a few years a go and downloading music isn't that bad (difficult) anymore. 
Now I discover a new platform. Did you heard any about the music platform SellaBand? Before I didn't and now I'm working there. 
On SellaBand you can support your favorite artists by buying a part and helping them to raise the funds for a new music project (a new album, tour or the promotion of their music).
It's a new way of thinking and also other industries will use this concept . The keyword in this is 'Crowd Funding'.

For you and for any artist or label on SoundCloud it's worth to visit the website. It's free and allready 34 bands realize the target of 50K to finance their music project. 
The artist owns all the rights; 100% Master ownership and 100% publishing rights. 
 
I hope it will help you to record and publish your (first) cd in a real studio with a real producer.  

Good Luck!

Oscar
