Tone-a-holic

Ok, warning self-promotion ahead.

Hello, as everyone should be aware I am a founder and work at voeveo.com, and….. I’ve become a tone-a-holic.

It’s getting so bad I’m starting to have trouble recognizing when my phone rings as I’m switching up the tone so frequently.

In the last 2 months I’ve had a nice little snake charming number, a hardcore dance track, a nice little bollywood riff and now some classical mozart.

It’s become a sort of facebook type expression of what I’m doing and how I’m feeling. Or what I need to hear before I pick up that phone. I haven’t quite gotten to the point of tone per contact yet, but Annabel does that.

There is some very unique and talented people uploading new tracks all the time on the site and it’s one of the things I’m most proud of about our site. There is definitely a flavor of quality combined and a very distinct, unique feeling about the stuff available. Thanks for keeping the addiction going guys.

If you like the sound of the mozart I got currently, check out more classical stuff here.

Another shout out

SuperGodzilla put this together and put it online for our site.

With all the stress, ups and downs, and hard work; this is the stuff that really makes it worthwhile.

Big Thanks for reminding me why I’m doing this.

PS. Take Me Over Nasty has been my ringtone for the last month or so.

The Music Industry Inside and Out by David Byrne

This has got to be, hands down, the best analysis of the past, present and future of the recording industry written by someone who has lived it.

David Byrne breaks it down with much detail. Great explanation of what he describes as the 6 models available to current artists for selling and promoting their music, ranging from completely hands-off to completely hands-on. Pros/Cons of each, amazingly simple charts to look at describing where the money goes from a CD sale; and why even though iTunes is great for consumers, it still isn’t so great for artists. In fact they can make less on an iTunes purchase than a CD sale.

I highly recommend reading this article!
