Advances — the pawnshop for the music business

The pawnshop for the music business. A date is sealed, the money arrives after the show — the gap between those two is where an artist goes broke. Post the gap as a request against a sealed negotiation or a recorded contract; lenders answer with an offer: a rate and a term.

Money moves under the signed contract, off this site. Nothing is charged or paid here.

Post a request

A request is posted against something real: a sealed negotiation or a recorded contract on your own desk.

The ceiling on a request is set by the desk and is not published yet. Until it is, this form does not take a request.

A worked example

Gross on the contract
the figure the two parties wrote on the signed contract. It is theirs, never this desk's.
Desk fee
0% of the gross, taken from the gross.
Retained
the gross, less the desk fee.
Primary party's share
85% of the gross.
Most a request may ask
a share of the gross that the desk has not published yet. Until it does, no figure is shown here and no request is taken.

The example is written in words until the desk publishes the ceiling on a request. The two percentages are the desk's own defaults; every dollar figure waits for the ceiling.

Open requests

Reading the market…

    An open request shows the gross it is posted against, the date, and how many offers it has. Who asked and who offered is between those two parties.
