where musicians will be able to showcase their work, their talent and their image
Virtual Music, a provider of digital services for professional musicians, has announced their new service called MDP (Musician Digital Portfolio).
"We are very pleased to announce the MDP. After 15 months of R&D, and negotiations with several "Sponsors", we have put together the most powerful tool for the musician, seeking to launch or promote their career".
The MDP (Musician Digital Portfolio) consists of an interactive DVD with dynamic elements of high resolution photography, audio and video; where musicians will be able to showcase their work, their talent and their image; as well as to provide the necessary information for their promotion, booking or contact.
The menus, and all text information, are in English and Spanish. All the elements are created with dynamic buttons and sound. There are 12 themes to choose from, to personalize the MDP ("my MDP"); and if the artist wishes, Virtual Music also offers a professional duplication service, with suitable packaging to be sent by mail or courier; as well as additional related services. The process is very simple and it does not matter where the musician lives, since he or she will perform the entire process, via the Internet from a computer.
From the Web site, the musician will choose a theme that best suits their musical image and style; the television format for their market NTSC or PAL, and then order my MDP with a credit, debit or ATM card (Visa or Mastercard).
The service is available immediately for the USA; Canada; EU; Latin America; Australia; and New Zealand
To support sustained expansion in new markets, Virtual Music is implementing an aggressive marketing campaign to expand the service into the Pacific Rim, beginning with the Philippines, Japan, South Korea by the 4th quarter of 2005.
One of Virtual Music goals is advertising exchange, with high value specialized magazines in all markets, through our sponsorship programs. At the present time, our web site offers attractive home page banner space on the Spanish or English sites, particularly to industry magazines, musical instrument manufactures or distributors and other music related services, interested in expanding their market position in the USA and entering new markets around the world.
The uniqueness of the MDP goes far beyond the ability to portrait the artist's talents in a professional way. It takes no more than 10 to 15 minutes for a record label scout, an agent or a promoter, to judge the musician's potential; and usually that's what makes the difference to get an audition. The MDP, not only will become a must for an artist, but in a short period of time, it will become the standard of the music industry.
A high quality DVD production requires weeks of work and thousands of Dollars; instead the MDP can be produced in few hours, and can be delivered anywhere in the world for less than $200.00 Dollars, whether you are a solo artist, a band or an orchestra, the price remains the same; and all of this, thanks to Virtual Music's unique partnership with key sponsors.
