NEOTOPIA Sound Awesome!



This is a sort of MySpace kinda forum for musicians and listeners to join up to. And what's really nice about it is that it's a lot smaller and intimate than those big unwieldly networking sites most of us use. This one has been designed by a few enthusiasts who occasionally get their favourite bands from the site together for little festivals. Because it's still fairly new you can be more sure to be heard by some of the promoters who're already members.

There's a bit of a space rock and psychedelic electronica bias to it, but they're a nice open minded bunch. This will really suit many of the musicians who we're associated with already. So, we've just signed up to it, built a profile and loaded some new tunes up.

Each band or listener can have their own site and gallery space (much like MySpace) which they can decorate how they like - Also, there's a radio feed, which plays a continuous random mix of all the music the bands have put up on their own profile's player. It plays through iTunes as a stream, really smoothly. I quite like it.

You don't have to be a musician, though. Just be a listener, if you want.
