please can you tell me, by your experience, how much does an artist ( the one you know ) want to be paid for booking?
as for dj set and as for live set.
by my experience a friend told me that Jan ( koxBox ) cost about 500 euro for djset and about 2000 euro for liveset ( travel ticket not included ).
How much that artist want to be paid to release a track on your new comp?
ps. I don't run any label and I don't organize parties, this is just for my curiosity.
thanx

The "cachets" allways changing,
the "exchange" is every time a personal talk with artists.

The twisted rec team is one of the big act in the world, is normal to pay this money. Is not a usual cost, is a exeption.

Good luck!

The prices differ from the size and the country where the partys at

Yes but DJ Tiesto charges much much more than the Twisted Crew,he used to charge much more even two years before when he was not number one dj in the world and i had signed him once for Greece.           Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

I know at carrier peak of Paul Oakenfold he took around 18000$ which is almost 10000GBP. I don't think Tiesto would be signed if charge was much more than that. Although Tiesto can bring much more crowd.
I would not like to call names here, but prises we sign go from 500$-2000$ per artist. Furthermore it depends on too many, location of rave, number of ravers, relationship with organizers. Some artists i can sign for 500$ when other will pay more, some will sign other cheaper than i can.
One thing for sure, if you do not have good party promoters, never sign more than one artist at 500$.

H2O Paul Oakenfold might charged 18000 dollars for events in his home country England or USA but trust me his price for countries like Greece and Japan where the competition between promoters is very very high he charges prices like 40.000 dollars and more depending on the event.

In our days the average price for artists like Tiesto,Paul Van Dyk,Sasha,Carl Cox and John Digweed is more than 25.000 dollars and can even reach crazy prices of 50.000 dollars in case of very big events in stadiums or events sponsored by big companies like Coca Cola or Marlboro for example.In any case its almost impossible to book these artists if you are not really really well connected and have a very big pocket or very big sponsor.Just try to send a mail for booking purposes to these guys managers and see what answers you will get hehe.

Anyway back to topic now,in the psy trance scene the prices vary depending artists name and country that hosts the event.

For example an artist will likely ask less to perform in Yugoslavia or Mexico than he would ask to perform in Japan or Germany.

Prices vary from 0 euros (yes some people are willing to play for just their travel expenses) to up to 10.000 euros for the very very big names of the scene.Keep in mind that trying to book GMS or Infected Mushroom for special dates like New Years Eve might require even more money.

From my experience the last 4 years an average dj set by an established artist who has released two albums cost around 1000 euros and a live act by an established artist or group cost around 2000-2500 euros (travel expenses excluded ofcourse).

95% of the artists will perform for you under these prices but names like GMS,Infected Mushroom,Skazi,Astrix,Hallucinogen,Astral Projection and some more will ask you for more money depending ofcourse date and country.           Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

Excuse me, but what does Tiesto have to do with Psytrance? And how can he be talked about in the same breath with the Twisted Team?           "We just got that Volcano lit...

Tweeker trust me Paul Oakenfold and Paul Van Dyk and many others mentioned in this topic had to do a lot with psy trance maybe before even you started listening to this music.

We are having a nice conversation here so dont try to be so strict especially when you dont know some things           Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

i can only add to that that most prog DJ's will take round 60-70% of the prices that DETOX said.           Kinetic Honda GmbH, Worldwide Supliers of Quality noise.

Yer, Utopia was one of first psychedelic projects ever leaded by Oakenfold. Tiesto i don't know well but he promoted many psy artists.
