Record Label Launches New Indie Music Discovery Platform For Musicians, Fans and Industry Pros

Promoting the music artist and providing an innovative new approach to music discovery for fans is not always easy in the decline of today's industry, but Dead Famous Artists International has put their finger on something that is turning heads.
 
Nov. 1, 2007 - PRLog -- Announcing the Beta launch of Dead Famous  Artists International, a fully  packaged new record label, with licensing, publishing, artist management and  broad-scoped global distribution. The new website was specifically built for  independent musicians, their fans, industry professionals and music lovers  alike. It offers music artists a brand new platform using the latest  technologies to get their songs heard, licensed, published and distributed  throughout the world.

For the  music fan, the Dead Famous Army will soon be the fastest and easiest way to  discover some great new music and some of the best up-and-coming artists in the  world to suit their own unique tastes with all kinds of perks and VIP packages to  interest everyone from the casual listener to the devoted fan.

For their  musicians, Dead Famous Artists will offer a full suite of the latest viral tools  for promotion integrated right into their own unique pages. Each artist has  their own page custom built and loaded with pertinent info, portable mp3/video players,  artists’ blogs, a rolodex loaded with information – including a biography,  photo album, discography and printable lyrics page, along with the capabilities  to distribute their music both physically and digitally on a global scale.

Dead Famous Artists also helps artists grow their fan base through an integrated lead capture system to collect and store their fan’s email addresses in a database and directs those new fans back through the use of their branded mp3/video players and RSS news feeds to that musician’s website or social networking page where they can  cultivate a relationship with supportive, loyal and enthusiastic fans dubbed as “Street Teams” in the industry.

“Dead Famous was born on two completely different continents out of the desires of two like-minded industry professionals to fill a void in a declining industry.  We simply want to breathe new life into the industry through the use of some of  the latest cutting edge technologies, viral marketing tools and advanced  concepts in internet marketing. With so many great musicians and artists out  there just dying to be heard, we wanted to be able to give them the platform  and the knowledge from which they could launch their careers and go on to  sustain themselves in today’s market. The Industry is currently in the process  of evolution – into what we’re not quite sure yet - but we have a pretty good  idea of it’s current direction…and fans are currently the most valuable asset  any musician can have today, as they are exclusively responsible for fueling the  engines of success for many artists that are wired into the online communities  and allows them to remain completely independent while having the same  promotion power any major record label could provide them with. There are bands on MySpace currently generating friend lists in excess of 360,000 fans and garnering plays of their music files in the tens of millions. That is an incredible achievement for any independent artist and they’re all doing it on just a shoestring budget!” stated Strategic  Content & Development Director, Tony Boswell of Dallas, TX. “What we intend on doing with the Dead Famous brand is provide artists we sign with all the same tools they’ll find on MySpace, YouTube,  Bebo and all the others - along with a fully packaged deal - licensing and publishing opportunities as well as both physical and digital distribution  capabilities on a global scale. All of this under the umbrella of a non-exclusive contract, which allows the artist to seek out every other opportunity available to them.”

“With Dead Famous Artists, make no mistake - it’s all about the music, the artists and the fans...period! In just over thirty days, we’ve garnered about fifteen new contracts and the last two were major deals penned at a time when everyone is basically closing down their operations. It’s a sure testament that we are doing something completely different from every other record label in the world and it’s a sure thing that we’re on the right track to set a new standard in 2008,” said CEO Mike Puskas, who currently resides in Melbourne, Australia. “The musicians of tomorrow will be holding blue-collar jobs in the management of their businesses, which is their music, and their clients, who are their fans. It’s looking more and more to be a direct market. We’re just a stepping stone along the way, but one that will eventually educate these artists and  bring them into a new era that will revolutionize the way artists and musicians  think about themselves as they realize their value within the current direction and atmosphere of today’s ever changing marketplace. Dead Famous Artists International will strive to help the independent artist reach more fans, make more sales and validate their songs as marketable through the use of our global licensing and publishing partners, grassroots advertising campaigns, promotion of street teams and heavy fan interaction, as well as all the viral marketing techniques we will be implementing and utilizing in the coming weeks, both on- and off-site. We still have a lot of things on our development list to get to yet, but there’s currently enough content on the new Beta site to keep our visitors entertained for hours.”
