Free Music Friday: Rachael Yamagata, K’NAAN, John Frusciante

We’re kicking off our first Free Music Friday fully housed on our newly renovated Topspinmedia.com website by featuring Topspin Lab’s HTML5 Email for Media widget “Bleach”. These widgets below used for music artists like Rachael Yamagata, K’NAAN and John Frusciante make sharing giveaways straight from your mobile (and web, of course) to Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr a sleek piece of cake, with the artist’s own custom messages, too.

We encourage you to click below for these new, free music offerings this week, then check out the Share options to see how slick that part is. Besides the social sharing, maybe you have a blog and you want to help a band grow their email list while giving fans free content, then simply copy the embed code for your own online properties and everyone wins.

We also throw an equally earnest nudge your way to learn how to setup your own Bleach widgets right HERE. Make it easy for your fans to find out your latest and greatest creations by keeping them in your email loop. It works!

Artist of the Day: Bassnectar - VAVA VOOM

Bassnectar has been shaping our platform since 2005 through his early involvement in the alpha, beta, and post launch period. His input into what a direct platform should do for an independent artist like himself has been invaluable. I’ve been on his email list since the early days and his direct-to-fan approach through his newsletter always left me scratching my head about how to get into action, pick up on his fancy lingo, or NEED to be part of his movement.
In 2012, Bassnectar continues to be a leader in the Direct-to-fan space. Share buttons on his pre-order page are set up using the *brand new* Topspin Labs Linkbuilder (extended blog post coming soon!), the Email for Media uses Download Anywhere (also built by Labs) and of course, the Bassnectar store is fully Topspin. VAVA VOOM lands on April 10th (tomorrow!), with 11 cuts of brand new Bassnectar and featuring special guests including Lupe Fiasco, Pennywise, ill.Gates and more. To celebrate the pre-order, there are limited hoodies and tour t-shirts, plus signed CDs and sticker packs. Pre-order now and get an instant download of the single ‘Vava Voom ft. Lupe Fiasco’. And don’t forget to sign up for the mailing list so you get your free(k) track ;)

Artist of the Day: Carole King - A Natural Woman

Legendary musician Carole King teamed up with our Creative Services to promote her new book A Natural Woman, a deeply personal chronicle including reflections on her #1 Tapestry album.

The question was: How do we acquire fans for this book? The answer: use our Email for Media widget. We are giving away an excerpt of the book in a PDF file using our Download Anywhere tool which included the sharing mechanism we know gets results.

Page design and how the calls-to-action are presented play a big role in a campaign’s success. This Carole King email acquisition page is a great example and we encourage people to duplicate this!
