Our Perspective

Most independent artists don’t struggle because of talent.
They struggle because decisions are made without structure, timing, or a clear strategy.

We exist to close that gap.

  • Our work sits at the intersection of:
  • Management thinking
  • Release strategy
  • Audience and platform behaviour

Everything we do is designed to support long-term momentum, not one-off wins.

How We Work

We work closely, selectively, and with intent.

That means:

  • Strategy before spend
  • Clean, compliant growth
  • Decisions guided by real listener behaviour
  • Systems that carry forward from one release to the next

We don’t sell guarantees - because real careers aren’t predictable. We build foundations that give artists the best chance of compounding progress.

Independence Comes First

Blinding Talent is not a label.

You retain:

  • 100% ownership of your masters
  • Full creative control
  • Final say on every decision

Our role is to advise, guide, and execute where appropriate - not to take control of your work.

Who We Work With

We work with independent artists who:

  • Are releasing (or preparing to release) professionally produced music
  • Take their career seriously
  • Want structure, not shortcuts
  • Are open to strategic direction and long-term thinking

We don’t work at scale, and we don’t try to be everything to everyone.

Why Limited Capacity?

We work with a small number of artists at a time so we can stay hands-on, thoughtful, and effective.

That’s why many of our services are application-only - and why we’re upfront about fit.

Founder

Blinding Talent was founded by Mark Adams (ex C4/Bauer/EMAP) to give independent artists access to the kind of strategic thinking typically reserved for major-label environments - without the trade-offs that usually come with it.

With over three decades of experience across artist development, release strategy, and campaign planning, the founder has worked inside the realities of how the modern music industry actually operates: how platforms respond, how momentum is built, and where most artists go wrong.

The focus has never been hype or volume. It’s been about helping artists make better decisions - at the right time - with long-term outcomes in mind.

That perspective shapes everything at Blinding Talent: clear strategy, honest feedback, and systems designed to compound rather than reset.
