<p>Success in the music industry hinges on building constructive and positive relationships.&nbsp; And to do that, you gotta be cool.&nbsp; And there&#39;s nothing cooler than someone who can make fun of him or herself.&nbsp; In fact, if being made fun of was a sign of being cool, Sonicbids Artist Relations Manager, Benjy Kantor, would be the coolest guy in the world!!!&nbsp; :)</p><p>Having a sense of humor doesn&#39;t mean you have to be cracking people up all the time.&nbsp; It simply means that you&#39;re able to look at life&#39;s little foibles with grace and aplomb, and sometimes that means not being afraid to be embarrassed.&nbsp; Heck, you&#39;re a musician -- you know what it means to put yourself up on stage for everyone else to stare at!</p><p>There&#39;s no reason you shouldn&#39;t take that same fearless attitude with putting yourself in front of promoters and other artists, and at the same time realize you can&#39;t be everything to everybody, and some people might just laugh.&nbsp; And when they do, laugh right with &#39;em, because if nothing else it will let them know you&#39;re on-the-level, down-to-earth, and that you know there are funny things about the world we live in.&nbsp; More likely than not, you&#39;ll gain a fan, and it&#39;s a great start to building those relationships that are going to help you meet your music (or career) goals.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

WORKING TITLES


By BOWTOW, 2007-11-22

<p><font size="2">A nearly finished collection of tunes. Lyrics and vocals are yet to be done. Some are already underway. Final arrangements and mixes will be left until a solid idea of how the vocal should sound forms in my head. That may take a while<img src="/include/tiny_mce/../../images/smilies/face-smile.png" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" width="16" height="16" />.</font></p><p><font size="2">If anyone out there wants contribute a lyric or a vocal, please get in touch. I&#39;m currently trying to do this through the Digital Musician site (it is a(humbly)paid job). Unfortunately it is a slow process, but its got to be worth waiting for.</font></p><p>Thanks for reading this.</p>

Thanks, everybody!


By LEXZ, 2007-11-20

Thank you all for a most warm and wonderful welcome here!

I hope no one is offended by the comparison, but this place is feeling like the heyday of Mixposure when you'd post a song, go to play it to make sure it uploaded properly, and you'd already have a review. By the time you'd returned the favor by reviewing your reviewer, you'd have two more reviews queued up, and on it would go long into the night. A lot of people are responsible for that burst of energy here. Some of the Mixposure newcomers are hitting the 100-review mark already. Among the veterans, Dazed and Focus Player are amazing, but reapersg has gone far beyond amazing. I've put up over 25 songs in the past two weeks, and reapersg has reviewed over 20 of them! That would be an astonishing feat with anyone's songs, but it truly pushes the envelope when you consider that it's my alleged vocals this man is facing time and time again without flinching (well, I'm guessing about the not flinching part).

THANK YOU, EVERYONE! I will return every review - honest!

To Blog or Not to Blog


By willylumplumps, 2007-11-19

<p>Hello strangers..&nbsp; Thanks for visiting my page.&nbsp; I&#39;m just a younger gentleman who lives and works in Atlanta, GA.&nbsp; I used to be on a site called Mixposure which was sadly overtaken by an angry mob of intergalactic technology bloggers from the future.&nbsp; But I am happy to be a new part of iMusicScene and am proud to be affiliated with such great music made by such lovely people.&nbsp; If you leave a review i&#39;ll try and return the favor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>-Will&nbsp;</p>

Artist Ranking Reviews


By Admin, 2007-11-18

<p><font size="3">Well since there appears to be some concern over Artist Rankings I just disabled them. I never put much stock in charts or reviews from any site because they can all be manipulated. I learn more about the artists from listening to them and&nbsp;reading other members comments. Maybe that is just me.</font></p><p><font size="3">Anyway hopefully this will make some members happy!</font></p><p><font size="3">Dazed&nbsp;</font></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>First off - Welcome to all of the new folks to the site, and thanks to any who have felt moved enough to listen and comment on my tunes.&nbsp; With this rush of listeners I think some folks are giving me more credit than I deserve...&nbsp; All of the singing, and most of the lyrics you hear on the tunes on my page are from FocusPlayer.&nbsp; It is his voice that is making the tunes touch you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As of yesterday I have fired up the music making&nbsp;machine again.&nbsp; <img src="/include/tiny_mce/../../images/smilies/face-grin.png" border="0" alt="" width="16" height="16" />&nbsp; I have a song that has been haunting me to record and I had some time to myself yesterday that I used to get the process started.&nbsp; My goal is to make it&nbsp;different than the other tunes I&#39;ve done as far as tone is concerned, but once the Record button is hit that Distortion is so hard to ignore...<img src="/include/tiny_mce/../../images/smilies/face-wink.png" border="0" alt="Wink" title="Wink" width="16" height="16" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Not much else to report.&nbsp; If you haven&#39;t had a chance to check out the Nexus Radio stuff going on make sure you do!!!&nbsp; A lot of exciting stuff going on with the marriage of Nexus and iMusicScene...&nbsp; Pfft, I&#39;ve had a couple of tunes played over there - How cool is that?!</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Oh well, go play, listen, and record!&nbsp; It&#39;s all about the music.</p>
