What exactly does the Premium Artist Service include?
BeSonic AG introduced a new Premium Artist Service for artists on the27th November 2001. This is an optional service. It offers the artist additional features and opportunities to present his or her music evenmore professionally, and promote it even more effectively than before.
The Premium Artist Service provides you with a whole range of advantages allowing you to present your music more professionally and reach your audience more effectively online than ever before.
Unlimited number of titles:
Use the freedom to host as many songs as you like on our servers. For example, you can present a different compilation of titles every week, offering more variety.
On the Site:
No advertising banners on your homepage - You are your own master on your homepage. The only thing plugged here is the music. The liberty to design your own homepage (different layouts, colours, HTML) - Use your skills (or those of a friend) to make your homepage express something really individual. Make yourself visible above the vast mass of other artists and get yourself more noticed. Graphic emphasis (with a photograph and text) in the new artists'catalogue - A very important place if you want to be found. Visitors flick through whole genres here. An expressive picture and an inviting piece of text will lure lots of visitors to your homepage.
Hi-fi Streaming:
Visitors can now listen to your music in full hi-fi stereo quality, and be impressed by it. This enables them to appreciate all your acoustic precision work.
Priority Activation:
Premium Artists' songs are given preferential treatment. Your songs will always be available. In preparation: Individual record sleeve design for your artists' CDs, and considerably lower prices for each CD. In this way you can even order the most limited edition for your next concert - at a good price.
Can I still present my music free of charge on BeSonic?
Yes. The BeSonic service is still available free of charge, subject to a limit on storage space. In the Future, BeSonic wants to carry on offering young talents an opportunity, reducing the initial obstacles. However, against the background of the situation described above, we can only continue to accept those songs that – in our opinion – are suitable for publication in the context of our music service, based on our experiences in recent years.
Does that mean "pay or leave"?
No. All tracks offered by BeSonic (still more than 80%) will still be hosted free of any charge (!) and in the usual manner. It would be nonsense to stop good music from going anywhere. All it means is that we are takingfirst steps to limit access for "poor music attempts" and those tracks that got "lost on the shelf". All artists should definitely wait for a mail announcing which songs Besonic wants to publish. But don't panic! It's not as bad as it sounds.
