Release Summary: Seattle based NexTune launches new social music
web site featuring instant online playlisting and full streaming
audio.
Press
Release Body: Seattle, WA September 23, 2008 - The unique NexTune
difference includes its exclusive MoodMaker™
and SmartMix™ technology allowing members
to instantly create and listen to full streaming customized playlists
online. When combined with NexTune's desk top
software called Nexus, members can share their customized listening
experiences with other members of the NexTune community.
Members
can easily create MoodMaker™ playlists
by selecting the mood and genre of the music they want or with
NexTune's SmartMix™, members can enter one or more of their
favorite artists. With either of these online playlist tools NexTune's
proprietary technology compiles a list of similar songs and artists.
Unlike other playlist technologies, NexTune goes the full distance
by arranging the songs into a flow based on tempo and music style
to create a listening experience that rivals any playlist technology
currently available online or otherwise.
NexTune's
Social Network website is robust and full featured. Members can
populate their online profile with their SmartMix™
or MoodMaker™ playlists plus they can upload
any of their iTunes or MediaPlayer playlists. NexTune provides
a high degree of social interaction by letting its members send
songs and playlists to members inside the NexTune community and
to their friends who are not yet NexTune members.
Upon
entering NexTune.com you are immersed in a unique
and powerful music experience. NexTune offers its members full
streaming of millions of songs and is tightly integrated with
the AmazonMP3 store for users to download and purchase DRM free
versions of the songs featured on the site.
Michael
DuKane, president of NexTune describes the NexTune
experience, "We wanted to create an ideal online
environment where users can discover new music experiences, share
these music experiences and more importantly own the experience
through the legal purchase of DRM free digital music. Similar
to a traditional music store where users can listen to new music,
learn about new artists and then make informed purchases, we strived
to create a dynamic music environment that promotes the sale of
digital music. We chose to align NexTune with AmazonMP3 because
we believe we offer our users an enhanced Amazon music experience.
Our PowerSearch song locator gives our users the ability to find
songs within the Amazon MP3 store by genre, tempo, mood, vocals,
music style and music era."
NexTune
celebrates its launch with a promotion that rewards its
members with cash prizes based on activities completed within
the community. NexTune is lining up artists and
bands that have expressed interest in creating custom profile
pages and promote their new releases. Anyone can join for free
and begin uploading and downloading playlists within seconds.
