No-Nonsense Tiers

While music industry, as we used to know it, fades a bit more every day, new pr services and new ways arise literally every day. Never has it been easier to thrive in the new music industry and expose yourself, but not all services out there work for any artists. We used to burn our own budget on services that did not pay off. That made us understand what works and what doesn’t. We are excited to share our knowledge now by offering flexible, no-nonsense tiers that will save you money yet help you set the sails.

    

 

 

Slower Faster can develop your strategy and navigate your project in full through the complex and time-consuming process of releasing and promoting music, or we can help you on a short term basis and just show you the most efficient route.

Peaking at #158 on CMJ College Radio 200 Charts in October 2016, TRANSATLANTIC gets praises by AM/FM radio stations and media publications in the United States, Canada, UK, Australia, Portugal, Germany, Austria and Argentina, further cementing the trio’s reputation as a genre-defying, unique sounding band.

Press impressions

“There’s always a certain risk of one-shots not working out, but the Deltahorse aren’t looking for easy answers, just the questions that burn. Consequently, “Call It a Day” turned out raw, plain, spirited and with a sense of humor—the surprise is there’s no surprise in here.” – Elmore Magazine, USA

“This new version of The Deltahorse is sleeker and sexier than their past incarnation. You’re not going to find another group out there that sounds quite like The Deltahorse.” – ALEX DANIEL, Earbuddy, USA
