ATTN Bands: Support Underground Music, Support Yourself

Tag: Broadtexter NewsBroadtexter @ 10:00 am

Our friends over at armthepit.com have the following message…

The best thing musicians can do to keep yourselves and your art going (or excuses for getting free beer) despite the fact that the music industrial complex has effectively shut us all out is to unify and connect with each other. Communication between bands and clubs across the nation will make us all stronger and better equiped to keep on keepin’ on. Networking is the key my friends. Check out Arm The Pit. You’ll have the opportunity to sign up (free of course) and advertise yourself as well as make contacts with bands and clubs nation wide. The only thing that makes this work is YOU. Without you this all means nothing. The more bands here the easier it becomes to book tours cheaply without middle men. You also get the chance to be on a wonderful Arm The Pit compilation! Arm The Pit wants to help you help yourself.

If you have any questions or want to send your CDs, tapes, demos, 7inches and stuff to be reviewed, email them to armthepit@armthepit.com and we will set you up with all the info you need.

Check out these kick-ass bands when you drop by Sputterdoll, Secretions, Robbie & The Robots, Michaelane, Subpoena, and the other 400+ bands that are part of the family. Not in a band then sign up for a band’s street team and help them get seen and heard. See you in the pit.

Elsiane – Hybrid in stores NOW across Canada

Tag: AnnouncementsBroadtexter @ 9:00 am

We just found about one of Canada’s newest artists from a friend of the Broadtexter family. She is living, breathing proof that if you create something familiar you’ll have fun, but if you forge through and test the boundaries you’ll get noticed. Her video for ‘Vaporous’ of the new Hybrid album is incredibly produced, wonderfully ethereal and has the kind of smart-sexy quality that gave Erika Badu such artistic gravity.

Elsiane is hoping you will check out her album and keep her up in the
FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK!

Widgets have gone VIRAL!

Tag: Broadtexter NewsBroadtexter @ 3:00 pm

Broadtexter widgets can now be grabbed by fans and embedded on their pages. This is cool for an artist or band who has a street team or just some diehard fans who might take interest in promoting a particular mobile fan club on their own myspace, blog, or website. The process is real simple. Anyone can click on the ‘promote/embed’ link on the top-right area of the widget face and grab the code that pop-ups up. After embedding it on their web pages, the header and sub-header change to appropriately describe who they’re promoting.

We hope this helps bring more exposure to our user’s mobile fan clubs! There are many more features coming soon and thanks for all the feedback. If you have any suggestions or just want to share your thoughts, please drop us an email.
