man, a cat hipped me to this about a year ago. so, i got a page, uploaded some pix and some songs, and spent about an afternoon getting "friends" to join. (this was back when you could find people using a keyword, like "house music" or something like that...)

well, it's been around a year, i do NO work to this site, i get about 10 or 15 new fans/"friends" a day, and i'm getting about 70 plays per day... more than alot of major artists!!!

a great way to get feedback on new trax, (no need to have them mastered to put them up there, because they don't sound all that great anyway...)

pretty fantastic promo opportunity! (ps... it helps to have a good looking pic!)

(ps, the guy who started it, tom anderson, was a rock/roller from san francisco, and moved down to santa monica to start it w. another guy... he sold the site to news corp / fox for $550 mill!!!! guess he can afford daniel lanois' neve!!!)
