Song Placements - Be a Fly on the Wall at MySpace. Employees Speak Out!
Share
Since the go-to spot for every up and coming musician is the Myspace, I thought I'd grant you fly on the wall access at the myspace HQ for one day. Techcrunch has the dirt on the internal crumbling going down at Myspace.com from the perspective of 3 anonymous employees. What each employee reveals is a bit shocking, but after about a minute of mentally pretending to sift through the many pages of myspace music seems to be about right. Internally, Myspace sucks, and it's ever-so apparent on the outside. The eye witness accounts state there's lots of yelling and confusion going on behind the scenes and one employee even compared it to a poorly run enterprise development shop than an Internet company. I think the only thing holding Myspace together right now is the independent musicians back muscles (they should pay us!). We can only take so much weight, before it's time for a lighter load. Facebook Fan Pages anyone?

Song Placements - Invite Your Fans Into Your Reality
Share
Fact #1 - Youtube is the 2nd largest search engine next to Google.
Fact #2 - Many people search for music on Youtube and other online video websites.
Now that you know these two facts, the renegade producer suggests there is no better reason for you to develop a business strategy which includes online music video distribution. What type of videos are we talking about here? Not everyone has the money to shoot a MTV style music video, let alone a couple for Youtube. Don't stress, the idea is more about inviting your fans into your life and less about wowing them with your fancy videos. Clips from the audio, backstage, with members of your tribe at shows or even while having breakfast will work just fine! Having content that can visually engage your fans while you're not on the stage can help strengthen your brand. Time is obviously a factor in single handidly dominating all of the social video sites so you can check out web tools such as TubeMogul, which group distributes your videos to many video sharing sites at once, but first... you gotta create some content.
