although i mentioned this site before, i think it’s time to point you there again now that it’s up and running. the site is mix match music and it’s just an awesome idea to say the least. this is exactly what’s the internet best at: connecting people and making it possible for them to create something together even if they’re thousands of miles away. and hands down, if this world needs something, it’s more teamwork.

so this approach is about teamwork and collaboration in a musical way. there are two ways to participate: you can either sign up as an artist and create pieces of music like a guitar-riff or a drumloop for instance and upload it to the site. or you can be a ‘simple’ user who contributes by just going to the site and mixing together some of those pieces (they call them ‘stems’) to create a song. either by downloading and working with them offline, or by using the tools available directly on the site. you could also make money by participating: if someone uses the stem you uploaded and creates a hit with it, you’ll get your share. actually, they can explain this much better than i, so go there and get into it a little. i’m a fan already and at this very moment i’m creating some drumloops to upload there – great fun…

by the way they really do care about their users, i emailed them with some questions and got usable help in no time – thanx guys, way to go…
