MADISON, WI, December 5, 2005 - Underground and indie music fans just gained a huge new source for downloadable music.
Broadjam.com, one of the world's largest websites serving unsigned musicians, has now empowered fans to purchase original music. And the company's payout to artists is among the highest on the Web.
Broadjam.com is currently home to over 40,000 artist members, and 170,000 songs have already been uploaded to the popular site.
One feature that makes Broadjam appealing for fans is its search capability, which is very easy to use and can be extremely targeted. Dozens of search fields include genre, mood, lyrics, subject matter, tempo, and geography. And music lovers can browse over 175 Top 10 charts to audition the highest rated songs.
Broadjam also has a song review system that enables listeners to evaluate and give specific feedback about music, selecting songs by favorite genres or sampling the whole collection at random. Reviewers can have a voice about everything from lyrics to arrangements; results from reviews feed into the Broadjam Top 10 charts.
Downloads are priced at 99 cents, with a net payout to artists of 80 cents, one of the highest in the industry. “Artists do not earn what they should under the old way of doing business," stated Broadjam CEO and founder Roy Elkins. “And we believe that the kinds of fans who love indie and underground music will also love supporting those artists directly.
Broadjam operates one of the world's largest web communities focused on music. In addition to download sales and song reviews, the company offers turnkey websites, song contests, and services for musicians and the music industry.
