129 – All things new from ReverbNation

Recorded 23 March 2010

This episode of With A Voice Like This is about the changes ReverbNation has made in the past couple of months.

News You Can Use
I take a look at the four changes/new additions to ReverbNation
since 29 January 2010:

  • The complete redesign of the website
  • The launch of the company blog
  • The new digital distribution packages announced 22 March 2010
  • The Reverb Store announced 24 February 2010 for print on demand merch with partner Audiolife

I also take the time dot a little compare and contrast with a couple of services I’ve used to this point and see how ReverbNation‘s services stack up against them.

  • I compare the digital distro packages with my experiences with both SellMusicDirect.com (A print on demand site no longer in existence) and CDBaby.com and take a look at their offerings, pricing structures and payment to artists [Note: I made an assumption about ReverbNation‘s package pricing, simply because turnaround time was too short before the live show to get a clarification when I found the source of my confusion, but I think I got it right].
  • I then compare both CDBaby and mainly Zazzle.com to the new Reverb Store and again look at their offerings and pricing structure

One Last Thing
This is the last week to enter the contest for a free digital download of the Toy Block Music EP Eats Paste, to be released April 1, live drawing to be held on Episode 130. Just tell me your favorite children’s song from your childhood and you’re entered. You can enter in one of 5 ways:

  • Put it in the comments of the show notes
  • Post it on the wall of the With A Voice Like This Facebook Fan page
  • Call the Comments from the Podcast Gallery voicemail line at 630.492.0487(standard calling rates apply)
  • Use the Google Voice link on WithAVoiceLikeThis.com to have the Comments from the Podcast Gallery voicemail line call you
  • Send an e-mail to [email protected]

[Edit: I just realized I incorrectly called ReverbNation’s partner in the Reverb Store “Audiofile”. They are correctly identified in these show notes as “Audiolife”. My apologies]

126 – Toy Block Music ‘Eats Paste’

Recorded 02 March 2010

This episode of With A Voice Like This is a very special interview with Joanna Quargnali-Linsley of Toy Block Music and Misery Loves Co. about the March 4th preview of the EP Eats Paste to be released April 1st of this year.

Joanna tells us about the overall project and how it came about, how the charity Pager was chosen to receive a portion of the profits from the sale of the EP and some of the different experiences. A few of the artists who appear on the EP called in as well to talk about their part in the process (as well as tell a few stories) and best of all? I got to play clips from 6 of the 7 songs that will appear on the April 1st EP release. Here are the songs on the EP and their respective artists:

  • Oh Susannah – artist is Arlen Ginsburg ( Website – Facebook Fan page) [Monica DaSilva – vocals (Website – MySpace page)]
  • Wheels on the Bus – Olin Langley (MySpace page) and SpaceFace
  • Crawdad Man – Austin Collins and the Rainbirds (Website – MySpace page)
  • There was an Old Woman – Anna Soltys (Facebook Fan page – MySpace page)
  • The Cat Came Back – Alex Sanders (Facebook Fan Page for The Texas Funerals – Facebook Fan page for The Quincy Not-So-Fine Arts Society) and The MeowTones
  • Wynken, Blynken and Nod – Stereo Sinai (Website – Facebook Fan page – MySpace page)

And here’s the seventh track on the EP, just recorded two days before the show, so a mix wasn’t available.

  • Alice the Camel – David Kav (Website)

GERD Links

Other sites mentioned in the show

One more thing…
If you’re listening closely in the show, I took it as a personal challenge to find a musical joke in the Toy Block Logo and I won. What did I win? A free copy of the Eats Paste EP. But I’m not going to keep it…Oh no, I’m going to figure out a way to give it away to a lucky listener. Got any ideas? Leave me a comment and we’ll see what happens.
