Artists: "Total Control" Publishing and Distribution
Through efM
We are beta-testing our new artist
administration area RIGHT NOW, a TOTAL ARTIST CONTROL interface that will
allow you to create and maintain a complete point-of-contact for current
and potential listeners, and it REALLY
WORKS!
Artists can upload CDs, "Digital
Albums" and individual tracks for sale or for promotional distribution,
including detailed liner notes and album art. You don't need a completed
CD, if you have tracks you want to publish and distribute, we can help
you.
The new interface has extensive real-time reporting, including
sales, inventory (we'll sell your CDs, too, of course- if you like) and
detailed visitor stats.
We are a "filtered"
site, looking for exceptional music- if you have some and want us to help
you get it into more ears, application is easy, just point us to where we
can have a listen....here's
