How about an index of SL radio stations that present SL jammers.  As it stands, I'll send MP3 files to Cher and Circe but I don't send them anywhere else because I'm not going to sort through a zillion forum entries to find them.  It wouldn't surprise me if others do the same so maybe it'd help everyone out if there were one place to look them up.  Unfortunately, it would be difficult to present email addresses via the Web or the spam skanks will be all over them.

Great idea, Silas Smile

Perhaps include which ones take a percent of any sales generated and which ones are for profit?

I can start the thread when I get home from rl work, unless someone would like to go first?

And please be honest with your posting.

I'm surprised there isn't more interest in this

i only knew Cher's Radio station.

i was contacted once by another ( can't remember the name though )
but that was a vague thing.

If there are more stations, then i am happy to send my music.
As long as they don't sell or anything ...

I'm not sure it's a lack of interest, it may be a lack of contributors and/or offereings?  I'm only familiar with a three radio stations in SL that specifically feature SL muscians, those being IndieSpectrum (Fox Reinsch), SL Live Music Radio (Cher Harrington) and FCMC Radio (Reslez Steeplechase).

Does anyone know of any others that specifically feature SL musicians?

Indie has added commercials and Fox did tell me he is planning to sell the songs and take a cut of the profits.  So I would say Indie Radio is a for-profit station.

MNP has just started a station which is open to any independent artist, SL or non SL musician.

thanks Cher.

But could he do that without telling us ?
i mean its hard to track who play's/sells what song.

Personally i never check if someone play's my music,
as long as they don't earn money im fine with it.

Yes, not to mention harrassing me and the venue owners who play SL Live because I haven't booked  the artists of a certain manager who is very aggressive with promoting the station.

Reslez doesn't do that to me.  Nor does Moody.

We have all found our niche, but I think that this needs to come out in the open, since there are alot of posts for Indie Radio here on the forum.  If it was all on the up and up I would let it be.

I don't have a problem with someone making a profit on my jams on a radio station so long as some percentage of those profits are folded back in support of SL music.  Others will have different opinions but I'm not looking for any money out of it.  Another option would be to send some percentage to RFL but that wouldn't do anything to sustain music.

It's hardly even started and this for-profit stuff is obviously going to get ugly so how can that be headed off.  How about some kind of SL performer's contract that says you can play my tuneage and it's fine if you do it for free but if you get any money on it then some percentage has to go to ...... (fill in the blank).

As always, the problem is validation.  Think about it, folks.  This could be cool or could turn into a sandtrap.  Shake some stuff out.

The next problem beyond validation is that any proceeds would go to sustain music and wtf does that mean.  Feed an SLMC-sponsored venue?  Hmm...possible...the SLMC venue could pay performers to come in and the profits go full-circle.  Radio gets a slice, venue gets a slice, and performer gets a slice.

OK, back to validation.
