Volume, newly launched Music Networking Script

Volume, newly launched Music Networking Script

2008-08-20 By
volume

Agriya Volume is a fully customized music portal websites script
that helps users to run a music portal site like Purevolume.

Chennai, 19/08/2008. Agriya Infoway, a Chennai
based Software Company, announced its latest software release earlier today with
the presentation of Volume, a software package allowing webmasters to launch
their own social music platform.

Traditionally social networks like
MySpace have been most popular among music lovers online, but the recent shift
towards mainstream social networking and the growing fragmentation of music
genres have created the need for more niche oriented music websites. Volume
software aims to bridge this gap and offer the possibility for one to start a
specialized music platform with the new software.

Though Volume boosts
various social networking features, the script is designed with one particular
mission in head: maximizing exposure for artists, bands, record labels and other
music inspired communities. ‘We have focused on the needs of musicians and bands
online, as Volume is 100% focused on music and offers artists a way to gain
exposure and even sell music online’, says Aravind, CEO of Agriya.

In
Volume, bands and artists create their own personalized webpage to announce
gigs, receive feedback from fans or make mp3’s available for download. Both
musicians and webmasters can monetize by selling the mp3’s online and earn
additional income. On the other hand music lovers can become fans of their
favorite bands and connect with like minded on the platform.

The company
from Chennai has high expectations for this new release and counts on the
growing online music business to attract customers for their new product.
Moreover, for musicians and bands who abandoned commercialized music platforms,
targeted niche platforms could be the next big thing as alternative ways to gain
exposure and maybe even fame.

Making Flyers (For Beginners)

Making Flyers (For Beginners)
By Janice Jenkins

Although many business owners nowadays are converting to online marketing to promote their products and services, print collaterals such as flyers still have their appeal to most entrepreneurs.

Traditional marketers still go for custom flyers as time-tested strategies to market their merchandise. The way they’ve always done it is to hand out their print flyers to their target clients, hoping that the design and layout gets the attention of the recipients.
As marketing collateral goes, full color flyers are highly popular not only because they’re simple and cost effective; custom flyers are the print materials that can help you get up close and personal with your clients. In fact, they are the closest you can get your message to your target clients, without having to discriminate.

So whatever merchandise or item you’re selling, or if you’re opening a new business, a color flyer is one of the most cost effective marketing collateral that you can use for your retail business.

Here’s how you can create your very own custom flyer printing:

Step 1: Choose the color of your paper.

You might go traditional and opt for white. But if you want to be unusual and out-of-the-ordinary, choose colored paper for your flyers. The most popular colors are light pink, light blue, yellow, and light green. And if you are bold, try bright pink, electric blue or even shocking orange.

The trick is to create a good contrast between your paper and your graphics and text. If you’re planning on using bright colors for your paper, choose lighter shades on your graphics and typeface.

Step 2: Develop a snappy and catchy headline.

In addition to your graphics and design, your headline is the only time that you can really capture the attention of your audience. Provide a catchy headline and hook them with powerful descriptive words that sum up your merchandise.

Don’t forget: be simple, clear and concise.

Step 3: Add your graphics.

There are available graphics and clip art in your design software program. All you have to do is pick one or two that can emphasize what you have to say in your custom flyer.

But be sure to keep your graphics simple. You wouldn’t want to distract your clients’ attention to what is more important - your message.

Or if you’re on a tight budget, printing costs can be cut down by using your text and the typeface. Even your font can be your graphic design.

Step 4: Write your copy.

Your flyer copy should be straightforward and direct to the point. You can’t afford to go on and on with very limited space in your color flyers. Don’t waste your time and your clients’ time with too many words. Use simple everyday words to make your message clear.

Step 5: Have your color flyers printed.

Step 6: And you’re done.

Bands to Watch - Silence of a Silhouette

Band to Watch - Silence of a Silhouette
By Kimberly Wolford

Cleveland, Ohio has always been associated with greatness: the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Drew Carey, Lebron James and the list just goes on. Well, chalk up another tally for Cleveland with the alternative rock quintet Silence of a Silhouette. The band has already made quite a splash on Myspace and even performed on the Ernie Ball stage at the Vans’ Warped Tour this year.

Andy (lead guitar), Jeff H (guitar/keyboards/backup vocals), Jeff K (drums), Justin (bass) and vocalist Danny make up the lineup for this up and coming rock sensation. The guys have each separately thought about being professional musicians, but it wasn’t until they were all together that they decided to make their dream become a reality. I, along with legions of dedicated fans, think that was a very good decision. Silence of a Silhouette. Hmmm… now that’s an interesting name. According to guitarist Andy, Jeff and Danny are the creators of the name, “Well Dan and Jeff were reading a book and in the book it said Ashes of a Silhouette and for some reason Dan thought instead of ashes it should be silence.” That name has since stuck but fans know them better as simply “S-O-S.”

Cleveland is not just the home base for this band. The guys actually love to play there too. With so many choices of venues, who wouldn’t want to play in Cleveland? Notable places for Silence of a Silhouette include the Agora Ballroom and the Grog Shop. Silence of a Silhouette also just finished a partial tour with the Vans’ Warped Tour this summer. They had the opportunity of playing on the Ernie Ball stage and experienced a taste of what is soon to be their future.

The music of Silence of a Silhouette is characterized by driving guitar riffs and memorable beats. “Pandora’s Box” being a key example of this. “…Pandora is actually our favorite to play normally it’s got that catchy beat to it and when it gets into that breakdown I just go crazy…” says Andy. But don’t get to thinking that Silence of a Silhouette is just like any other budding rock band out there; the guys signed with a management group in 2007, which changed a lot for the group. Andy says, “It [things] changed drastically. Although our contract just ended, the time we were with them was awesome. Between getting awesome press, pictures, shows, and merchandise, we really expanded.” He goes on to add; “I think the main thing that separates us from anyone out there is our energetic stage performance. It’s almost like a war zone between us band mates when we get on stage. We are swinging guitars, microphones, stage diving, or some kind of crazy antic for the fans to enjoy”

Silence of a Silhouette’s new album Escaping Reality is available on iTunes, Amazon, and their own online merchandise store, which is accessible through their Myspace page: www.myspace.com All I can say is that the world better prepare themselves. Silence of a Silhouette is pumped and has a long and bright future ahead of them. Andy closed the interview with a few words for all the Silence of a Silhouette fans out there, “The one thing from the bottom of all our hearts is that we love our fans. If it wasn’t for them we would still be at step one.”
