Si eres nuevo en mi canal, mi nombre es Alexiomar Rodríguez, soy abogado y socio fundador de Xiola. Somos una firma legal boutique para la industria de la música y el entretenimiento. Trabajamos con artistas, empresarios e inversionistas. Les ayudamos a negociar y cerrar contratos de seis y siete cifras. En 2025, conseguimos $5M para nuestros clientes sin sacrificar derechos, control, ni libertad.
Cómo llegué aquí…
0–21: Músico, productor, guitarrista y cantautor (+10,000 oyentes mensuales en Spotify).
22: Graduado con Altos Honores en Economía (UPRM).
24: Trabajé con jueces (federal y estatal) y firmas de litigio corporativo.
25: Graduado con Altos Honores en Derecho (UPR).
26: Renuncié a una de las top 3 firmas de Puerto Rico para lanzar Xiola.
27: Facturé mis primeros $100,000.
28: Fundé Seed Academy, escuela de music business en español.
29: Escribí un best seller en Amazon (De Artista a Empresario Musical) y superé $400K en revenue.
30: Me mudé a EE.UU., levanté $250,000 con Techstars + Warner + VC, y lancé Flou, software de contratos musicales ($50,000 en ventas).
31: Comencé a dar charlas internacionales.
32: Seguí el consejo de mi mentor, Alex Hormozi. Cerré Seed Academy y Flou. Me enfoqué en Xiola y facturamos más de $500,000.
Hoy: Nuestra firma ha cerrado sobre $5M en adelantos e inversión en la industria de la música y el entretenimiento. Somos 100% bilingües (español e inglés). Trabajamos con artistas, empresarios e inversionistas americanos e hispanos. Cobramos de tres maneras: tarifa fija, comisión, y suscripción. Así es como hacemos nuestro dinero. No vendemos cursos.
La industria musical es dura. Pero si naciste para esto, lo sabes:
La vida sin música sería un error.
No te quites,
Alexiomar

Record Labels Make Millions Off This Artist Misunderstanding
Video by Music Money Makeover Show via YouTube
Stop playing "sandlot" ball and start operating like a major player by shifting your mindset from selling music to managing high-value copyright assets. In this video, we break down why the "real" music industry makes millions off the misunderstanding that labels sell recordings, when they actually survive on the strategic acquisition, holding, and licensing of master rights via ironclad contracts. You’ll learn how to build a rock-solid infrastructure—from securing your LLC’s corporate veil to executing a 35-year exit plan—so you can stop just "putting out music" and start building a functioning record label that attracts massive business opportunities.

00:51 – What a Record Label Actually Sells!

Pensó que el mensaje de Sony Music era un bot 🎧
Video by Music Business Academy via YouTube
Inma Guil entró al Máster en Industria Musical de la UAM siendo cantante lírica, sin saber qué era un contrato ni cómo facturar su propio trabajo. Un año después recibió un mensaje de Sony Music por LinkedIn… y pensó que era un bot. Hoy trabaja allí.
En este Short cuenta qué cambió: formación con profesores que están en activo, constancia y la valentía de dejarse ver. Como dice ella: “El máster me dio herramientas, pero yo tuve que utilizarlas diariamente.”

A loop is not a beat until you arrange it!

A loop is not a beat until you put in the work to arrange it.
Let’s break down how to turn a loop into a cohesive beat or track, by organizing your samples, drums, and piano into intros, choruses, and verses. Glue your track together by taking the time to actually build an arrangement, which is where the creativity comes from.
