kurb's guide to myspace

What musicians need to know about the
social networking phenomenon


OUR SERVICES COVER:
We create and distribute your promo press kits and produce dozens of CD promo's for distribution to radio, advertising agencies and potential licensers, media, music and related industry contacts.

We create and maintain your web presence, get people coming to your homepage, listening to your music, create dozens of doorways that generate visibility for your act. We can provide all your fundamental online promotion needs, homepages, maintenance, mailing lists and dozens of tips and tricks to make your music marketing more modern and INTERACTIVE!

No one in New Zealand knows social networking like us - how it works, how to get results, where its going. Right noew, it's myspace, we've been there since '04, but tomorrow, who knows? We do. If you don't know what the fuss is all about let us show you why social networking sites are creating such a buzz in music.

Kurb's got your back. That means free stickers and other promo material, discounts on all our services, access tp opportunites and contacts. People to talk to, contacts to know, websites to join.

Those waiting for a recording contract these days maybe waiting a very long time. Already most labels are unlikely to take a risk on something that hasn't been seen to perform in its own right. This being the contradiction of the recording industry as it stands: The labels only want you when you don't need them. And what are they generally offering? "If we make money on your record, we'll take at least half of it. If not, don't worry, you can pay us back."

Selling your music online is becoming cheaper and easier and most importantly more profitable all the time. How we establish and provide distribution of your recordings online is not exclusive or costly, but it is time consuming in detail, and most effectively managed and maintained by someone who is aware of what is required - that's us.

Recouping the initial expense is unlikely to happen straight away - it can take up to 3 months before your music becomes available throughout the world on over 40 of the worlds biggest online music retailers including itunes, napster, cdbaby, amazon, and even trademe. We build a broad repertoire of points where your music is available giving you the freedom to release what you want, when you want, however it sounds, and charge what you like for it. true story.

We are currently establishing a comprehensive independent distribution for physical CD's within New Zealand and Australia in 2008.
