There’s no denying the drastic change our lives have taken due to our dependence on the internet. And not only has it affected us individually, it has also deeply affected multi-million dollar corporations including the music industry. The power of the major record labels have diminished considerably as listeners find alternative means in discovering new music on the web. Artists and record companies alike are currently scrambling to utilize the web to help connect to their fans. iTunes and myspace have made significant impact in reaching a wide ranging audience over the last couple years. But a brand new music site called Kerchoonz is expected to make an even greater impact with its free and legal downloading service. Their vision is to give listeners what they want which is free streaming and downloading of music that they like and in turn pay the artists through targeted advertising.
I just checked out the site today and I’m thoroughly impressed by the song selection and the variety of features the site has to offer. It’s essentially a “web 2.0″ music site which means that it has social networking built right in from the get-go. Along with music downloads, Kerchoonz also offers videos, chat capabilities, blogs, photo sharing, online games and custom playlists. If you’ve used facebook or myspace before, then you’ll have no problem using Kerchoonz. What I like best about the site is that it provides a platform for “bedroom songwriters” like me to upload songs to and let the world hear them. Whether your an established artist or a beginner with “garage band” on a Mac, the playing field has been leveled with Kerchoonz. And for music listeners seeking something fresh and new, the site is an absolute bonanza! sign up today and be a part of the new online music revolution.
