If I'm A Producer And I Sign The Scout/Associate Producer Agreement Do I Have To Stop Working With Unsigned Talent?

You can work with whoever you want, however you want. It's only the signed talent that you need to apply our relationship to and only signed talent from which you'll earn through our network. Otherwise, go about your business as usual with unsigned talent. The hope is you'll scout some of that talent as you feel it could use representation from Mountjoy Music Studio earning a finder's fee and Associate Producer opportuntity.

Do I have to perform in order to get paid?

Songwriters get paid out when any of their musical works are used by signed talent to make content we go to market with. The more bars/measures you save in the Alearezzo musical database the higher your chance of an artist using your work. Even a single measure influencing another work will potentially pay out something.
