Another Compilation

I'm working on a compilation CD and I'd thought I'd let people here know what's going on. I'm trying to get some bands from all over the world on it doing original music. Everybody chips in we get at least 1000 made and every band gets a few to give away. If anybody is interest IM me here. Here are the details:

This CD is first and foremost a promotional vehicle for bands playing original music. I will gather some great original music and assemble it onto a professional compilation CD. All included artists will receive copies of the CD to distribute. The compilation will include all the artists’ promotional information so that fans can reach you. In a short time thousands of people will have heard your music, and your fan base will have grown.

The compilation works by means of viral marketing. All selected artists are asked to do their part in distributing the album by giving it away at shows, local record stores and radio stations. All submissions must be of good quality, clean in nature, and all original.

If selected, you will have to grant the promoter a mechanical license to produce the compilation CDs, and sign a form that consenting that you wrote the song and own the sound recording. After this project is complete the promoter will not produce any additional copies of the compilation without your permission.

I want these to have radio potential so only radio clean songs. I'm hoping to keep the cost at about $100 per band, and have each band get as much CDs as possible. If you are interested let me know.

Rikk, I'm not a band but just a solo producer-songwriter. Your project sounds really great and I'm just wondering if my stuff might be appropriate. Here's a link to my music site: maybe you can tell me if I should send in one of them.

Kira,

Sure. Your music would be welcome. This project is to spread the word about your original music. I've done a few of these before and they have been a lot of fun.
