An idea about auditions...

Thanks for contacting me. I think this is a great idea. We need more vehicles to help facilitate and cultivate our industry. As you know, it is becoming increasingly difficult just surviving as a musician.

It would be great to post serious auditions, which a lot of people don't have the connections to hear about them. I also think it would be great to get some of the labels and their connections with management companies to post auditions. These are just some thoughts off the cuff.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the reply, and voicing some of the same ideas we have in the pike right now. Auditioning modules (audio & video) will be a big part of connecting musicians with all of their constiuents, whether it be booking agents, film and TV companies, recording companies, broadcasting entities, other musicians, bands, etc. Also, remote collaboration among artists is also an important priority with MGN, because it's all about creating music.

We believe that by focussing primarily on the creation of musical artworks, we'll be able to bring out the huge reservoir of untapped talent in this country (and the world), and bring about a prosperous and vibrant renaissance for musicians and in the culture as a whole. In this way, the power of music to heal will be exponentially effective in raising up society.

We appreciate your support, and look forward to helping to serve and facilitate your art.
