"demo"的定义和意义

What is a "demo"?

A demo is a preliminary version of a song or recording used to showcase its potential. It is often created to give an idea of the song’s style, melody, and lyrics before it is fully produced. Demos are typically used by artists, songwriters, and producers to pitch the song to record labels, other musicians, or for further development. They can range from simple recordings with minimal production to more polished versions that closely resemble the final product.
