I just led a little panel on music, marketing, and various related topics. We ended up tossing out so many links and sites to people that I needed to just take my own notes and tell people to check the website later… so here they are:

Sites To Spread The Word:

• linkedin.com – Professional networking site.
• music.podshow.com – A great way to make your tunes available for podcasters.
• Reactee.com – A way to advertise on a shirt AND get a free text message reply service (just check it out).
• VistaPrint.com – Free business cards, address stamps, stationery… seriously, FREE.
• ClubFlyers.com – Free color fliers to hand out… one side’s yours, one side’s their ad.

CD Makers and Music Distributors

• CDBaby.net – The best online retailer in the history of mankind. Well, in my opinion.
• TuneCore.com – Get your songs on iTunes, even if it’s not part of a full album.
• Kunaki.com – Short-run CD creation, distribution, and they even do DVD’s too!

Some Things To Look Up:

• Circuit Bending
• Theremins
• A little fun with Tesla coils at Duckon
• The Røde NT2-A Microphone
• The Blue Snowball Microphone
