Hi guys,

I was wondering if there is any other sites like Indaba?
Something like freelancer.com or genero.tv but for music, where you have contests or jobs to apply?

 

abadnI is one that I really like the most, always can get a job from there... abadnl.com works 100% of the time, 0% of the time.

 

There's Audiodraft, NuMuBu, M-One Studios (for working musicians), elance, Jinglesmart, 10 Beats, NeedAJingle, Broadjam (subscription required), Music X-Ray (pay required for most)...

Those are just the ones I know of... there are more. The only ones I trust are NeedAJingle and Audiodraft but it's a crap shoot...

 

Oh... and there's ReverbNation... they have contest and job opportunities too. But listen, any advertised "job opportunity" is going to be fake or weak. The real jobs are word-of-mouth only and it's a "who you know" industry...

 

@( . ) ( . ) I mention indaba because of the contests just that.

@LuckySevens thanks , I will check some of them. I know real jobs are word-of-mouth but my problem is more geographic I mean I'm from a small city in Portugal so....
Music unfortunatly for me is an hobby and I like to participate on those contests, despite never winning anything

 

https://www.talenthouse.com
although I don't suggest such kind of websites and competitions.

 

@rflip if you are looking for contests ... Original or remix contest... I can add some sites here:

http://www.remixcomps.com/
(remix competition aggregator, but since last some weeks there is no new post)

https://pro.beatport.com/
(Always..have 2-3 tracks for remixing)

https://www.spinninrecords.com/
(go to talent pool or remix section)

https://wavo.me/
(It has lot of opportunities... Competitions too.. Free and paid sometimes)

http://fawm.org/ (Hurry, February is on..!)

http://audiotournament.com/
(Original compositions by using given sound material and tracking softwares. Very interesting and challenging, too)

I think .. These are enough to keep you busy whole year. Indaba is very good one also. It has something going on...every time.

Best of luck..! Cheers..!

could also be useful to get samples for free

 

Do you mean samples / stems of original mixes supplied to make remix? If yes, I doubt whether it can be used for your own commercial production because of copyright issue.
