Indie Music Works News

DJ Download Change

DJ Download

Great news for the artists of Indie Music Works. The DJ download feature has been simplified. You no longer have to check a box for DJ download "Yes or No". Now all that you have to do is click on the HiFi Listener drop down box and click on "Streaming + DJ Download".

Any tracks set for DJ Download will make them available for download to the Indie Music Works DJ's for airplay on their radio shows but they will still not be available to the general public for download though they can still be played.

We hope this will eliminate some of the confusion there has been with this feature. Allowing the DJ's to play your music on their shows is a great way to get your music heard.

If you have any questions about this feature please contact any of the site Team Members or open up a Help Ticket.

Live Radio Shows

Microphone

Make sure to check out one of the sites live radio shows. Each DJ brings their own unique style to their programs. During the radio shows artists and listeners get together in the IMW chat room. It's a great way to meet some of the other folks on the site.

Take a few minutes and check out the schedules on the home page of the IMW artist site. Stop in for a few and say hello!

Donations

IMW Donations

We are currently seeking folks to step up to the plate and help support Indie Music Works. The site doesn't have any annoying pop up ads or huge sponsor banners because it's completely supported by community donations.

All artists and listeners who donate get a special emblem on their profiles where they will proudly show that they support Indie Music works. All supporting artists and listeners have their own tab under "Listeners and also Artists" where folks can see who helps the site out.

We're proud to say that the community here at IMW is the best! We appreciate you being here and your help.

Radio Promos

On The Air

IMW is in need of some new radio promos! The next time you have your recording setup fired up how about making a radio promo?

We ask that the promo's be at least 15 seconds long and not extend past the 1 minute mark. Music in the background is fine.

Some ideas for you;
Hi this is ??????? you're listening to Indie Music Works Radio, the source for Indie artists and listeners.
This is ?????? I spend my Friday nights listening to (DJ Name, ie Floridamusic) on Indie Music Works Radio.
You get the idea right?

Does your band have a CD coming out? Make a short promo announcing the CD and where it can be purchased and we'll put it in rotation on the streaming radio which runs 24/7. A free service to the Indie artists at IMW.

All promos should be 128k 44.1

IMW Banners

IMW

Help Indie Music Works get the word out with a banner from IMW.

There are several different types of banners. You can check them all out by clicking on the site "Community" tab and then click on the "Banners" tab.

There is very simple copy and paste code that you can add to your web site or any forum signatures for forums you may frequent.

Help Us Spread The Word!
