spongebob Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I used to have a Myspace music page - great for applying to bands and the like with lots of soundclips. pics, etc. Easy to update, and great to use. Myspace went right down with the upgrade....so I started a Reverbnation page. Always found it a bit of a nightmare - went on today, it's changed again, and I couldn't alter certain parts of the profile. Page now deleted....! Does anyone know of an alternative? Just a site (not Facebook/social networking) where I can literally put up some songs, pictures, etc, a site that I can forward to bands if anything comes up I want to apply for? Quote
EliasMooseblaster Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I get the impression that nowadays the done thing is to pop some recordings on Soundcloud and/or Youtube, then use the links to advertise on Gumtree or include in emails to bands you're applying for. Quote
RockfordStone Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 a linkedin style site for muso's would be a good idea tho Quote
mike257 Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 About.me is a good one for setting up a basic profile of yourself for networking. Can have a bio, photo(s), skills tags and it allows you to add links to external sites and social networking profiles. Quote

darwin Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 I set up a profile on [url="http://www.bandmix.co.uk/"]http://www.bandmix.co.uk/[/url] with my details, some pics, a few MP3 and saying I was looking for a band..... I had about 10 bands contact me including my new band with whom I do my first gig with next weekend Quote
