Three Record Companies Team Up With MySpace for Music Web Site
By JEFF LEEDS and BRAD STONE
Three of the music industry's four major companies have struck a deal with the
social networking site MySpace to start a music Web site.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/04/technology/04myspace.html?th&emc=th
Musicians Online: The Importance of Being on the Web
Go to Broadjam.com
Why be Online?
Simply Being on the Web
Having Your Own URL
Digital Fandom
Current Film/TV Destinations
Why be Online?
It's pretty clear that most Broadjam members understand the benefit of
an online presence. If you didn't, you wouldn't be a member. But being
on the web is beyond beneficial for musicians, it's necessary. In the
ever-changing market of digital music, it is imperative that musicians
understand the industry and are capable of controlling their content in
the do-it-yourself world. This shift to musician-powered promotion is
summed up perfectly in this short artisthousemusic.org interview segment
with Don Gorder, chair and founder of the Music Business/Management
Department at Berklee College of Music.
Simply Being on the Web
In the digital music market, independent musicians finally have a voice
and a quick, reliable way to share and sell music. However, this
newfound freedom can be daunting. There are millions of ways to use the
web, so a little musician-focused guidance is useful. Below are a few
helpful articles to help streamline the promotion process:
How to Self Promote Your Music
Internet Connects Musicians, Fans
Fifteen top music promotion tips
Also, Roy will be posting a Blog tomorrow about how to capitalize on the
web as a musician, so don't forget to check it out.
Having Your Own URL
Some of you may be wondering, "Why would I need a website if I have
Broadjam?" Good question. Broadjam serves as a community and resource
for musicians, but a personal website will literally be your address.
With a personal site you can customize the look, create email lists and
blasts, track contacts and tasks and more.
Here is a good web article that examines the importance of owning your
own URL:
Importance of having your own domain name.
Primos, don't forget that Web Hosting is a free feature of your
membership - take advantage of it. Templated Web Hosting
your Broadjam Profile.
Digital Fandom
The last thing we wanted to call attention to is the relationship
between musicians and their fans in the new music market. Nancy Baym of
Online Fandom has posted an informative presentation regarding this
topic on her blog. The presentation
downloadable and includes her detailed notes on the history of fandom
and the direction the Internet fandom is taking.
