spongebob Posted March 22, 2013 Share 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?

dand666 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Linkedin? Or is that too commercial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliasMooseblaster Posted March 22, 2013 Share 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.

mike257 Posted March 22, 2013 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
