And now, my choice for digital direct listening and sales of songs to my fans … for now: VibeDeck After covering so many of the more established services — like BandCamp — and those offering so many more services — like CD Baby and ReverbNation — this may come as a bit of a surprise. [...]
This is the penultimate review in a series based on my own research, plus awesome input from a number of other independent musicians. My basic goal in this series is to find the best-of-breed that will allow independent musicians to sell digital format songs direct to listeners. If you’ve been following along, you’ve read about some [...]
This is the seventh song sales tool that I’ve reviewed after getting lots of wonderful input from many musicians across Twitter, the blogosphere and the web. My main interest right now is direct sales of digital downloads of songs, so that’s my focus in this series: TuneCore/SmashSongs/RootMusic, CreateSpace, ReverbNation and Genuine Caring. Like ReverbNation, CDBaby [...]
Before I continue my last three reviews of digital direct sales tools for independent musicians, I want to give an extra special mention to Genuine Caring. Not only do they provide an awesome service to a number of inter/national and local (Lehigh Valley region of Eastern Pennsylvania, USA) charities, but they do it in style [...]
This is another in my series of reviews of tools/services for independent musicians to perform digital direct sales of songs. I asked for input from other musicians and got it on this blog, on Twitter and in person. In previous reviews, I’ve covered CreateSpace and TuneCore/SmashSongs/RootMusic. I’m looking for your ongoing, honest responses to these services [...]
As promised, I’m continuing my series of reviews of online musician song sales tools. The previous review went over RootMusic, SmashSongs and TuneCore and why, in the end, they don’t match my criteria. Today, I continue with the review of services that don’t meet the baseline that I eventually came up with for my focus: sites [...]
This is the first in my series of reviews that I promised to provide based on feedback from other musicians and my own research. Frankly, I’m starting with the ones that “didn’t cut it” in my book. So, this may not be a very exciting review for most of you … unless you like one [...]
I said I would deliver this to you in February. It was mostly true. But there were a few “issues”. In my initial post where I asked for the input of other musicians, I didn’t define the parameters enough. In the process of receiving your vast, insightful input, I discovered that there is a significant [...]
I’ve started to “curate” a pool of musician resources that I hope you’ll appreciate. Click the images to read more. Playful blessings, Stan
In February, 2012, I will post an article/review about online musician services. I’ve looked at a few of them myself, but it would be impossible for me to check out all of them, so… I need your input. If you’re a musician or band using an online music service, I want your feedback. (I’m looking [...]
