With an experience of more than eight years in the music business,
TEN TON HAMMER CONSULTING is set up very well these days. The
nucleus of our expertise is based on Rock und Heavy Metal with all its
facets. Be it rather mainstream of the most extreme form of extreme
music. We always have an ear to the ground and simply know what’s
going on.

TEN TON HAMMER CONSULTING holds a huge network of contacts
throughout the whole industry. We command very good relations
to the leading heads of the labels, promotion and booking agencies, to
the organisers of the huge (and smaller) festivals, the producers as well
as to the leading Rock- and Metal-magazines (e.g. Metal Hammer Ger-
many). For TEN TON HAMMER CONSULTING this goes without saying.
Who is not able to provide all of this, is simply badly off in this matter.

Moreover, TEN TON HAMMER CONSULTING pursues a different busi-
ness policy compared to common management companies. We consider
ourselves to be the advisory and consulting capacity with regard to the
artist’s needs. We do not enforce the common method of „the manager
gets his 20 % of everything first”. However, we do not work for free.
Who in fact does that? But every single cooperation and its complexity
and volume are tailored and designed to the individual needs of the artist.

The main scope of duties TEN TON HAMMER CONSULTING takes care
of is primarily the consultancy and guidance of bands and artists. You
have reached a point in your career when you realize that you are not
able to come forth concerning your musical career advancement? We are
going to support, assist and help you with words and deeds. Whether
you have a record contract or not: we try to help you.

Moreover, we assist and help you when it comes to point of concluding a
contract with a record label. Not only do we look for a label which offers
a contract that matches with the artist’s/band’s interests most perfectly,
we in fact do analyse the contracts very thoroughly for the artist prior to
signing them. Additionally, we point to certain and significant contractual
facts and circumstances as well as possibly difficult articles of the con-
tract, since we know the business. We keep you from signing something,
which would be anything but beneficial for the band’s/the artist’s career.
And in case that even we should face unexpected problems with certain
articles of that very contract, we still have a number of contacts of
excellent and trustworthy lawyers available: Absolutely advantageous.

Furthermore, we advise, assist and help you – if need be – in terms of
art and aesthetics. Especially younger bands tend to deprive themselves
from a good career due to the facts of choosing a bad band name, the
wrong logo, the wrong photos, the wrong font in the booklet, etc. etc.
We know the business for many years and we know what the essentials
are and to what is paid attention to. We live for this.
