SHOWCASING INDEPENDENT MUSICIANS
AND AUDIO ARTISTS ON THE WEB

The extremeaudio.com site is rooted in interactive multimedia -- our interfaces are specifically designed to involve the Web visitor, to draw them into the site and keep them interested and entertained. Visitors return again and again to see what's new and cool. That's why we continually gather, present and promote an increasingly wide range of independent audio programming, across the Internet.

For our independent artists, extremeaudio.com provides the best opportunity to reach new listeners over the Internet, providing digital audio samples, promotions, sales and distribution -- and a much greater share of the sales profits than traditional retail sales channels.

For our listeners, extremeaudio.com allows you to hear the music you choose (not what the programming director at you local radio station chooses for you), and to buy recordings on-line that you cannot find at your local record store.


The extremeaudio.com site has two distinct areas -- the Browse area and the Community area.

Within the Browse area, you may navigate to any audio genre of your liking, and browse through the artists and their recordings. When you find something they like, you can order it on-the-spot, on-line, by simply supplying a credit card number and shipping information through our secure transaction system. Our "shopping cart" style of ordering allows you to return to browsing and add more items to your order before finally submitting it.

In the Community area, you will find chat rooms where you can converse with other listeners and artists, audio industry news and links, artist information pages, calendars of events, how-to information for budding recording artists, and much more.

FOR THE LISTENER

EXCITING CONTENT: For the listener and audio buyer, extremeaudio.com delivers an exciting interactive venue for hearing and buying recordings from artists who have the freedom to explore their creative visions without the unreasonable censorship and marketing limitations that major label artists may be subjected to -- recordings from independent creative audio artists. These recordings span a wide range of musical and spoken-audio genres, ranging from "pop" music to experimental, blues, jazz, country and western, New Age, funk, vocal, Be-bop, inspirational, storytelling, novels, poetry, children's works, and dozens of other styles / genres. If you can't find something you are looking for, let us know, and we'll happily try to help you find it.

EASE OF USE: Catalog style browsing through the artists and their recordings, makes for a pleasant interactive listening and buying experience. Listeners have instant access to 60 second audio samples of each track, artist information and other avenues of participation and enjoyment -- all with the click of a mouse. extremeaudio.com allows you to explore sounds of your choosing, rather than those selected for you by the programming director of your local radio station. Visitors to EA individually interact with the latest in independent label music and spoken audio products, and may then order and buy, conveniently and securely, any number of interesting selections. At the same time, EA gives you the opportunity to directly support the creators of such audio diversity by purchasing their products, with the knowledge that a much greater portion of each sale from EA goes to the artists themselves than major label productions sold through traditional retail stores.

FOR THE AUDIO ARTIST


The Community area of the extremeaudio.com site provides many resources of interest to artists and audio professionals, including how-to areas, audio industry news, chat areas, email lists, banner and classified advertising, private areas for clients, and other features which will be continually evolving over time, largely in reaction to input from the artists who use the site. The primary purpose of the Community area is to promote a virtual community where artists can gather together and discuss or learn about topics of interest, as well as make personal contact with their listeners.

MORE EXPOSURE: extremeaudio.com provides independent musicians and audio professionals with an international stage of visibility. We provide a new way for the listening audience to hear and buy your recordings. Artists will find answers to the two greatest obstacles to selling independent recordings -- air play and distribution. EA addresses the air play issue by giving listeners a stimulating environment in which they can hear samples of your artistry. EA content-providers (artists) are provided Web-wide air play, marketing and sales opportunities in front of an audience which most independent artists could never reach on their own. EA believes in empowering artists to control their own audio creativity without the need for a major record label, and focuses on the artists -- both musical and spoken audio -- who have independently produced audio recordings. We keep the EA website updated, exciting, interactive, informative and fresh. Additionally, EA distributes your product direct to the customer wherever she or he may be via on-line catalog sales on the World Wide Web, and utilizes secure on-line transaction technology.

MORE MONEY: As a content provider on extremeaudio.com, artists receive 50% of their consigned product profits, and can play direct roles in the marketing, sale and popularity of their work. Because of the 'Net and the advent of affordable home-based digital recording tools and equipment, the role of the traditional megalithic record company is dwindling. In the normal retail music industry, the record companies, distributors, retailers and others, split up the profits among themselves, and the actual artist receives the least of the money, even though the artists are the reason the profit was made in the first place.

At extremeaudio.com, we work feverishly to prevent this, and return a lion's share of the profits to the artist who most deserves it. The Internet is already spawning a new independent on-line music industry, where Web savvy musicians and audio artists won't have to compete in the same old traditional advertising and marketing struggles. At EA, we provide a superior interactive interface for navigation and listening to streaming audio, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, internationally, providing an unprecedented potential audience and source of income for artists.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES: extremeaudio.com provides additional opportunities for marketing your products as well, including assistance in developing and/or hosting your own Web pages or site, and/or enhancing your existing Web page with streaming audio. We offer rental audio-player technology for installation on your personal Web site, leveraging the samples we create for the EA catalog site. Visit our Chat Rooms where you may connect with other artists and listeners in real time and share common interests. We also offer handy advice and technical support, expanded marketing and advertising services and opportunities, as well as periodic contests, concerts, artist clinics, promotions and events both on-line and in our headquarter offices. EA will work with you to help make the Web work for you. Thoroughly explore the EA site and see and hear what it has to offer you!
