About Me
Allow myself to introduce…myself.
My name is Daniel “Danny Dee” Aguayo (ag-why-yo) and I am a Topspin certified music consultant specializing in direct-to-fan marketing, management, distribution & monetization strategies.
I run a music biz tech blog: Digipendent which disseminates news & ”how-to” info for aspiring indie musicians (specifically rappers) I’m member of the Grammy Recording Academy: SF chapter. I just recently turned 26 which marked my 10th year of my Professional career. I’ve somehow managed to involve myself in nearly every facet of the music industry, most recently spearheading Clear Channel Radio’s Silicon Valley Social Media Biz Dev initiative “Radio 2.0″.
I currently advise various regional labels such as ABB Records, SMC Recordings and Thizz Ent; while overseeing digital strategies for Young Money’s Gudda Gudda, the Jacka, Rakim, Erk tha Jerk, Mistah FAB, Glasses Malone, Killer Mike, and many others.
To keep the lights on I freelance for various ad agencies in Silicon Valley where I have overseen and maintained social media campaigns for Harpo Studios, Cisco Systems & Whole Foods. I’m also authoring the forthcoming book “Hustle 2.0: The Age of Engage” (which is becoming my own personal version of Dr. Dre’s Detox) and a part of the first ever outsource label service consultancy “Digital Goons”.
I hope you find value in my blog & if you do, I’d love to hear from you!
