Red Dragon Records is a relatively new but rapidly growing record label based in the south of the UK. It was designed and built around a business model that involved working with very new artists and the main ethos of the company since its inception is to help artists where possible whether signed to the label or not. To this end, we created a free mobile app (the only app of its kind at the time of writing). This app contains over 1,000 links to radio stations and blogs that have been vetted to ensure that they take music from unsigned or indie label artists. Furthermore there are sections for design companies, sites that will allow artists to find new sources of revenue or even giving artists companies that manufacture CD’s, websites or merchandise.
The app also has a ‘Music News’ section. In this section there are 3 real time feeds, one collects RSS feeds from blogs such as Hypebot, Music Ally and Discmakers to name a few. This means that in this feed you can keep an eye on all the latest blog posts regarding the music business and adjust your path accordingly. There is also a feed that collates twitter feeds of all the top music blogs, music business blogs and music opportunity accounts, again, allowing you to see opportunities worldwide at a quick glance.
We invite you to download the app, it is free, it is available on Android and iPhone currently and let us know what you think of it. After all, you really don’t have anything to lose by checking it out. If you would like to download it either search ‘Mimir Music’ on google play of the app store or just click this link http://mobileroadie.com/apps/mimirmusic
We hope you enjoy the app, and we wish you the best with your careers!
