Answer 1

myspace.com
last.fm
If the material is interesting, these two sites will get you all where you need to go. Although depending on what you mean by "electronic music".

Answer 2

Make a bilingual promo site with a portfolio (photos of the stage image and demo recordings). Distribute a link to it (you can send it simply to agencies by e-mail). You can also contact the radio (especially the Internet) and send them recordings for broadcasting.
Basically, there is nothing new here.
ps producers here are unlikely to find IMHO

Answer 3

It's strange that you're asking this here. You and I have a mutual acquaintance of a musician who at one time reached certain heights in the west. Ask him, his experience will outweigh the experience of the entire habr in this area.
And I think I know who you're planning to promote. I have listened to the last couple of podcasts with great pleasure.

Answer 4

Upload his songs to all popular sites, go to forums and give links there. If many people like it, then it will work. You're not promoting a person, but his work.

Answer 5

First you need to come up with a unique idea related to the project that the public will perceive. Then we can talk about promotion channels.
But for a popular project, it's all social media. The only thing is that they need to be dealt with every day, to maintain interest ...

Answer 6

There is also thesixtyone.com Quite worthy (as food for thought)

Answer 7

There is a whole collection of such resources - more than a hundred free social sites and systems from more than twenty countries of the world, created and existing specifically to support emerging and independent musicians, as well as musical groups.
However, it certainly won’t be worse if all these third-party sites link to the musician’s personal website - this way it will be possible to reach the largest possible audience, which can be notified almost instantly about all the news and changes.
