Starting a (legal) PodCast, need your help...

Hi all,

I am looking to start a bi-weekly legal podcast, and I need your help...

I am looking for producers to send me some tracks. For your help, I will place your name in the tracklist and link to your website. I also plan on creating a webpage with links profiles of all the producers who contribute...

The concept that I have in mind is that with the more submissions you make the higher up in the line you move... also once you submitted over a certain number of songs you would become a featured artist, which would entitle you to having a banner in rotation on the pages or some other features...

I am still looking for ideas to make this work, if you have any ideas, let me know...

If you would like to be a part of this, please send an email to [email protected]. The email should contain the following information:

Subject: Podcast Submission
Your Name:
Your Website:
Your attached track, and any comments you may have...

I don't know if any TA's have done this before, but it should be pretty cool...

I barely dare to ask but, whats a podcast?

great idea. I also wonder what a podcast is though.

podcasting, is a liveset basically that would be made and distributed over the internet. There are currently, hundreds of podcasts that you can "Subscribe" to and every time a new "episode" comes out iTunes automatically downloads it to your computer. I dont wan't to get into too many details about how it is done (just search yahoo for more info, or visit http://www.ipodder.org).

Basically I am asking for your tracks because with your permission it is legal for me to include them in my podcast. For you letting me use your podcast, I will link to you thus increasing your exposure...

I intend to gain nothing from this, other than maybe putting a google ad on my page. The main motivation is to spread music, and be a hobby...

I hope this clarifies things some...

I coudl really use some feedback...

hey, just start this podcast and see were it gets you. I don't have any finished work right now I can send you, but it seems like a good promotion tool, and a good way of getting recognision and feedback from others.

Just set up your webpage and start promoting it, you don't need our approval. Just see were it goes ;D

Currently I am still gathering tracks, and I have to go home (at college) to get my cd players (makes sense, legally downloaded tracks...) but the blog is up, visit http://djzinni.blogspot.com for the future site of the feed...
