About two years ago, I randomly posted a record of a band I used to play with on this site called Jamendo. They allow you to upload your music under a CC (creative commons) license. Kind of a new thing on the intertwebs. Looked cool to me and now with over 150,000 listens, 10 license deals and people that love our music in Europe, I’m glad I threw this record out there to the universe. Jamendo is not for everyone, but if you’re not actively shopping your music or a member of ASCAP or BMI or any other performing rights organization, then this site is for you. Remember performing rights organizations offer valuable benefits for artists of all types so DO NOT discount that. I choose Jamendo for our band because of the nature of the project.
