intuition music launches website

WHO WE ARE

In case you don't know us already: “intuition" is a record company specializing in Jazz, World Music and other forms of sophisticated music away from the mainstream. [Full contact information can be found at the bottom of this message; details about our work are available at the online address/es given below.]

WHAT THIS MESSAGE IS ABOUT

Our new website at http://www.intuition-music.com is now near completion and this message is to inform you about the site and our online services available.

SO, ... WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

Well, apart from the obvious (detailed information about the company, labels, artists and records represented by us) these are the key features and benefits of the website:

GENRE FOCUSSED MAILING-LIST/S

Best thing first: You don't even have to visit our WebSite to stay informed about activities in the area/s of your interest. We maintain eMail-services focussed by genre; no bunch of more or less loosely related information jumbled into a 'Newsletter' once a week or once a month, but clean-cut dispatches, on topic, sent when ready. The following groups are available for you to choose from, (join as many as you like):

- JAZZ

LISTENING LIBRARY

We have put an extensive listening library online which, at the time of this message, contains already more than 1200 individual listening samples -- all fully searchable. Wonder what a record is like? Listen to a few tracks right from your browser.

UP-TO-DATE TOUR SCHEDULES

The site features a database of current concert dates; searchable and rearrangeable by artist, city or country. If the artist told us about the tour, it's listed here - date by date.

ONLINE SHOPPING

Almost not worth mentioning, but naturally our site offers the possibility to purchase our CDs online, too.

CHAT LOUNGE

Sure, our site also has the inavoidable gabber-box. It can be accessed from our site directly, or with any IRC-Client (details available at the site). We plan to arrange for regular get-togethers of genre fans here, and -- of course -- chat sessions with artists. Hang out with like-minded people, discuss the latest releases or get to know your personal heroes. You can even build our chat into your own page/s if you wish (contact us for help if you're interested).

DYNAMIC LINK DIRECTORY

Well, yeah, there ARE the big search engines. But have you ever tried to locate a site dedicated to your taste of music, only to find after a lot of clicking and browsing that it's not quite what you were looking for? Or have you been drowned in hits, not knowing where to go first?

We've decided to give an open link list a shot; everybody is free to add their favourite site/s as long as they relate to our musical focus or are otherwise useful to the open-minded public. Where the kick is? The links are evaluated and ranked by the votes of visitors going there -- so the weak sites drop fast on this list; no one's listed high because of key words smartness. To top it off, the whole thing is fully searchable, so you get to see only what you're looking for.

Right now, the list is still quite empty, it can only work FOR you WITH you. So come check it out, add some link/s, if you wish; or grab this nifty little item for your own site (contact us for help if you're interested).

OPENING CONTEST:


WIN UP TO 10 FREE CDS !!!

These are exciting times for us: As you see we have just begun to actively inform the public about our new online services -- and of course we hope for many interested visitors. Since we'd like to share the excitement of this phase, we've put up a neat little game which can get you (or your audience, for that matter) up to 10 free CDs right in time for christmas. Interested? Check out http://www.intuition-music.com for more details.

NOW WHAT?!

Are you kidding? Stop on by! :-) And if you like what's there: Spread the word! Link to us and get linked by us; share our ressources for your personal site; join the mailing list/s and hang out with us (or other people) at the Chat Lounge. This can get a friendly place, crowded with nice people sharing a common interest in wonderful music. So ... see you around at http://www.intuition-music.com .
