SUPERBLAST - THE BEST WAY TO GET PRESS!    

“Beat Wire did what we'd never be able to do by ourselves as a fledgeling indie label. Beat Wire got the message out about our latest release, and as a result we actually made the charts for the first time!”
- Conni St.Pierre, Smasheasy® records

“I used Beatwire to announce the opening of Xanthas' website. I got an astounding response and a 200% jump in youtube and myspace hits. They get it done!”
- Sedrick Moffett

“I used Beat Wire's services for my second CD A New Religion and found that it was well worth the money. I had several requests for CDs from writers for review and a couple of great interviews. I don't know of any other service that can match the value of Beat Wire and I will definitely use Beat Wire again for my next release. Sheila and her team do great work and deliver what they promise.”

“Since hiring Beat Wire to take care of the press release for two of my CD's I have had a good amount of interest in the product, much more traffic to my cdbaby pages and website than that of the other releases I have done on my own. For such a reasonable cost I can't find any service that does a better job for the independent artist/label.”
- The Viking

“Using Beat Wire for my press releases has worked really well - it saved a lot of time by putting me immediately in touch with reviewers and radio presenters, and I've made some great contacts along the way. Thanks Beat Wire!”

Superblast™ is a revolutionary press release distribution solution which combines the power of state-of-the-art Flash technology with the most comprehensive music media database in existence.

Superblast™ has been the most popular Beat Wire service from the day it was launched, getting our clients--independent musicians like you--exposure in major media outlets around the world.

Here's what you will get with Superblast™:

Press release writing + distribution

Beat Wire works with journalists who are used to reading professional press releases, and they tend to toss aside any sloppy writing that doesn't sound professional. For better results and a higher response rate, our experienced, in-house publicist will craft a professional press release for you that is more likely to attract the attention of music editors and radio programmers than one you write yourself. Your Superblast™ will be delivered directly to the desktops of over 10,000 music editors at daily newspapers, magazines, news agencies, top Web sites, radio stations--every place you need to be promoted.

Custom designed HTML press release

Superblast™ is a sophisticated HTML solution which communicates with music editors through both verbal and visual means. In addition to the press release text, Superblast™ lets you have two artist images plus an album image prominently displayed in the press release. It is said that one picture is worth a thousand words. With Superblast™, you have three of them. How many words is that worth?

Built-in audio player

With Beat Wire Superblast™, you will have an audio player built in to your press release. Now, music editors and radio programmers can listen to your music without leaving your press release! The only thing they'll have to do is click the "audio" button, and a custom-built audio player with your song will pop up. And as if that weren't already cool enough, Superblast™ allows you to have three audio players with a total of three different songs built right into your press release!

"Request a Press Kit" button

Superblast™ has a Request a Press Kit button built into the press release. It makes things easier for the more than 10,000 music editors, reporters, critics and radio programmers in our comprehensive media database to access your pitch -- and thus dramatically increases your chances to get them interested in your stuff. Instead of sending you an e-mail (which busy people often find quite annoying), a press kit request form pops up when they click a single button. You, in turn, will be automatically sent the e-mail address of the media person who asked for your press kit. That will let you contact him or her directly!

Free JukeboxAlive! account

Superblast™ comes with a free 18-month subscription to JukeboxAlive!--a comprehensive multi-media network geared towards independent artists and promoters ($65 value). JBA (JukeboxAlive!) distributes music using Flash technology, a process that inhibits downloading, but one that makes for superb listening and viewing. Each band profile consists of a full multimedia package designed to be useful for independent touring artists.

It includes
- Automatic eNews with streaming audio and video
- ePress kits with streaming audio and video
- Custom player for your Web site
- Protection from unauthorized downloading
- Custom events calendar on your Web site

and much much more. Read about JukeboxAlive! at www.jukeboxalive.com.

Free download of "How to Build a Music Web Site That Sells"

As if all of the above weren't a bargain, we will add an e-book to your package: "How to Build a Music Web Site That Sells." Written by Mihkel Raud, an Internet professional music promotion and marketing consultant, the book is considered by many to be the bible of selling music online ($19.95 value). Here's what Derek Sivers, President of CD Baby and Hostbaby, has said about the book: "Wow, Wow, WOW! This is the most on-the-money best laid-out, easy and entertaining, incredibly informative, absolutely accurate and insightful book I have ever seen on the subject of promoting your music online. And I have read EVERY book on the subject since 1994! Wow!"

You can read about the book at www.musicpromotiontips.com.

Have your own press release already?

Due to customer demand, Beat Wire has introduced Superblast™ Lite for musicians who have their own press release already written, but want to use all the cool features and extras of Superblast™. It's a hundred bucks off the regular Superblast™ price and makes more sense if you have your own press release prepared. Every feature of regular Superblast™ is included in Superblast™ Lite, except press release writing, so you must provide your own copy.
