Digital Distribution

We are pleased to confirm that US subscription service Rdio is now partnered and integrated with Label Worx.

Rdio is an ad-free music subscription service with social networking features allowing you to easily discover and recommend music. It is available in the United States, Canada, Germany, Brazil, Australia and New Zealand currently.

Rdio is accessible through many ways. Their are many clients for all major mobile devices which can play streaming music or cache songs for offline playback. There are also clients for the Roku and Sonos systems, native desktop client apps for Mac OS X and Windows and of course online listening from rdio.com.

At present Rdio is operating with a catalogue of over 12 million tracks.

We are pleased to confirm the recent addition of Rhapsody to our ever increasing Digital Service Providers list.

Having recently acquired Napster, Rhapsody is now the second largest subscription based music service behind Spotify, in regards to paying subscriber numbers.

They carry a catalogue of 13 million tracks and for a simple monthly fee of $10.00 you can access their content from any platform or mobile device with no restrictions.

Rhapsody is currently a US only service but can assume that a roll out to other territories is on the cards.

As 2011 comes to an end it's time to reflect on what has been a very busy year for all. The team at Label Worx have worked very hard to deliver some great services and fantastic tools over the past 12 months.

The introduction of our daily sales system has by far been the best received new feature. The ability to see sales that occur at stores like iTunes and Beatport in near real-time is now enabling labels to better understand the progress of their releases without having to wait for their next statement.

Our new and improved player on the promo download pages has also gone down extremely well with both labels and DJ's alike! The ability to see track waveforms is invaluable and also review promos on mobile devices is a welcomed addition.

We will be making some exciting announcements in the coming months so stay tuned. This along with the on-going work to expand our DSP network and ingesting more stores into our daily sales system are high on our agenda for 2012.

We are very privileged to work with such a fantastic group of labels who are extremely driven and dedicated to getting their music out there.

We would therefore like to wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and best wishes for the New Year.

See you in the New Year!

The Label Worx Team

Juno Download have partnered with the world's leading online electronic music magazine, Resident Advisor, to make high quality music downloads available to buy directly through their site at www.residentadvisor.net.

Initially, download tracks will be available for purchase via the DJ Charts section, with the potential to expanding across the site later in the year. RA readers will be able to easily listen to and buy tracks being charted in high quality 320 MP3 and WAV formats.

Founded in 2001, the Webby Award-winning Resident Advisor with over 1.3 million unique readers a month, has grown to become one of the world's most influential electronic music websites. It has played a significant role in bringing fans and artists closer together with a daily flow of news, reviews, features, podcasts and charts.

This partnership promises to be a great opportunity for labels already working with Juno Download, as it will reach a new audience of dedicated electronic music fans and enthusiasts, providing them with more opportunities to legally purchase music from their favourite artists and labels online.

The store is hosted at www.residentadvisor.net, but all preview clips, release data and full length audio files will be stored centrally on Juno's own servers. Although customers will purchase tracks directly from RA, the download will come from Juno's systems.

Driven by RA's charts system digital downloads will be available from track pages already available on the site. For tracks to appear on sale, they must be 1) charted by artists on RA and 2) approved by RA. This means not all releases on Juno Download will make it onto the store, as RA will be managing what's made available.

A much needed rework of promo download page elements is now live. Most noticeable is a vastly improved HTML5 audio player. Compatible with even iOS devices the new player provides all listeners with a large waveform which allows you to quickly navigate to those all-important sections of a track.

The previous download limits have been replaced by a system that permits downloads via IP address. This means you can download as many times as you like from 2 locations before you will need to re-confirm your email address.

Beatport give their customers the ability to follow/subscribe to your label on their store. In doing this your new releases will be highlighted to these customers. It's a simple but effect way of generating sales and helping customers wade through the mountains of music that gets released each week.

On several occasions we have been asked to inform labels how many subscribers their labels have. We are pleased to announce that this subscriber count is now available on your label profile page within our Label Management System. This number updates daily so you can keep track on your followers/subscribers and hopefully influence this number to grow.

It's hard to imagine that iTunes with its size and dominance over the digital music industry is not a worldwide store but that is the case.

Their worldwide reach has however expanded with the recent launch in 12 new European territories.

Those territories include -

Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia & Slovenia

Label Worx is pleased to announce our partnership with the music streaming service Deezer.

With its massive user base of 20 million users and 6 million unique visitors per month, Deezer is certainly one of the most important streaming services around. More importantly Deezer has 1.4 million premium subscribers and that number is growing which is important in such a tough industry.

Deezer is an official partner with Orange France to offer its premium service, which has resulted in over 1 million paying subscribers and helped establish it as the market leader in France.

They now have over 13 million tracks available through their service. These tracks can be played on any device and in enhanced sound quality. Deezer allows its subscribers to listen to and share their favourite music, create playlists and discover the music they love thanks to recommendations by its music-loving editorial team.

In September 2011 Deezer launched in the UK and plans to become the only truly worldwide music streaming service with launches planned throughout the rest of Europe, South America, Western Africa, Northern Africa, Canada, South-East Asia and Australia.

When October arrives we can always count on the ADE madness to start heating up. We've lost track just how many times we have visited the Amsterdam Dance Event over the years and just how many ADE bags, demo CD's and business cards we have returned with.

One thing we do know is that every year our trip is fantastic which is why attending ADE has become a permanent fixture on our calendar.

If you are attending ADE 2011 then we would very much like the opportunity to meet and discuss your business needs and how our services may be able to assist you.

Label Worx presents Event Schedules, a unique event booking system that enables you to digitally manage your schedule of meetings at an event.

This tool was developed specifically with music events in mind such as Miami Winter Music Conference, Amsterdam Dance Event or Midem. Now you can easily arrange meetings with your artists, licensors, labels or anyone else without the need to respond to countless emails agreeing suitable times and places.

Simply setup an event, specify your available time slots and then email the unique event URL to those people that you wish to book a meeting with. These people can then pick a suitable time from the list and book it there and then. Just print your final event schedule and take it with you when you go.

As an added benefit, your event booking page also uses the colour scheme used throughout our Promo Manager system. Customized Event Page templates are available for a small fee.

The Event Schedules tool is provided completely free to existing Label Worx customers. We just hope it saves you as much time as it saves us!

Since 1989 the legendary New York label Strictly Rhythm has helped define house music with the likes of Eric Morillo, Todd Terry, Louie Vega, Kenny Dope, Armand Van Helden, DJ Pierre, Roger Sanchez to name a few artists who litter their discography. Re-launched back in 2007 after a 5 year break the brand is now firmly back at the top of the tree with an empire of 21 labels on board such as Subliminal, Sondos, Bambossa and more.

Head of promotion at The Strictly Rhythm Music Group, George Hess was quoted -

"As head of promotion for Strictly Rhythm, Subliminal and The Strictly Rhythm Music Group, I need a system that is quick, easy to use, flexible and accessible by a mobile device. Label Worx is that system."

Strictly Rhythm are using our Promo Manager system to effectively manage their promo campaigns and obtain the desired feedback from their VIP promo lists so they can further promote each release.

Our new promotion reporting system provides you with the capabilities of exporting highly customizable reports showcasing all manner of items such as graphical charts, campaign statistics, press page, label profile, artist biography, campaign notes and much more. and built a customizable reporting system that meets all of these requirements and more.

Reporting Features -

Detailed Campaign Statistics

Every conceivable number relating to the promo campaign can be exported onto the report if you so desire. Statistics such as overall release rating, supporting djs, feedback received, downloaded, viewed and best mix details can be displayed.

Graphical Reports

A brand new charts page has been added to the report which details the Best Mix, Overall Rating and Rating Breakdown in clean graphical chart to bring a new visible element to the report.

Promo List Filtering

It is now possible to export a report for selected promo lists only. You can easily select the lists you require from the filtered selection of promo lists that only shows those that have already been sent your campaign.

Summary Notes

The ability to make notes and store these against your promo campaign has been built in. You can then choose whether you wish to print these notes on the report or not.

Press Page

The optional press page allows you to export release, label and artist profile information onto your report. Everything from label profile through to social networking links can be displayed.

Date Range Reporting

Some labels provide feedback reports weekly to their artists. The new Date Range option allows you to filter the feedback received by date range and export a shorter feedback report if required.

Promo List Priority Ordering

You can now sort the feedback received by promo list name or by a custom priority. If you wanted to make sure your "Top 100 DJ's" promo list appears above your "Radio" promo list then this is now possible by prioritizing your promo lists and reporting in this order.

As usual Label Worx listens to the feedback from our labels and responds.

iTunes Widgets have been around for some time but it's fairly well hidden on the Apple website and as a result gets overlooked often. For those not aware of this tool, it's certainly worth taking a look.

So what is the iTunes Widget builder? It's a unique tool that allows labels and artists to easily integrate a rich and interactive experience into their blog or website. Widgets are available with differing functionality, and they can be customized to best fit within your current website structure listing music pulled from either Album Discovery or iTunes Search.

If you have the space on your website then this would be an ideal addition to help promote and highlight your content and the world's most used download store.

Last month Trackitdown celebrated their 7 year anniversary on the front lines of digital music retail. Congratulations to them!

With this celebration comes a new chapter from the company. Billed as a 'Revolution Designed for DJs' - TID Pro is a membership service that enables subscribing members to download music with a significant cost saving.

With an emphasis on value for money without harming the music makers, TID Pro is a new way for serious DJs to buy more music at a substantial discount so they can discover more - Trackitdown.net

So what does is cost? The monthly membership costs £10.00 which then allows all members to buy their music at cost price. That means that full quality WAV files are reduced from £1.75 to £0.99 and 320 kbps MP3s are down from £1.49 to £0.79. Exclusive tracks are unfortunately not currently included in the discounted rate at present.

If you only buy a couple of tracks a month then this service isn't for you but if you regularly download 20+ tracks then this might be worth a look at.

From a labels point of view, nothing has changed. Although TID Pro enables music to be purchased at a reduced rate, these sales are accounted as full track sales to labels.

Apple has finally realized that 30 seconds is just not long enough to get a good feel for a 7 minute dance track. Although it's a relatively small change, the adjustment to 90 seconds is a massive step forward for iTunes. This update brings the store in line with most other digital retail outlets and is available in USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK and parts of Europe.

These music samples are what will sell your music so it's important that they are correct.

For all Label Worx distributed content, you have the ability to specify at which point in the track that 90 seconds sample should start from so you have complete control.

Label Worx is pleased to announce a massive step forward in sales reporting for all of our distribution customers. Daily Sales is a brand new reporting system developed in house and presented exclusively via our Label Management System (LMS).

The Daily Sales system details sales figures from multiple stores via simple graphical charts. This allows for an easy overview of estimated sales collated from several sources in one single reporting system. These sales figures are accessible far in advance of your actual sales statements.

Now you can easily track how many sales you made on iTunes yesterday or how many tracks you sold to reach your position on a Beatport chart.

With access to near real time sales you are now able to manage your label and your promotions with greater detail and efficiency.

After months of speculation Spotify has updated its website and are now taking registrations for an invite to be one of the first to get Spotify in the U.S. This move confirms that Spotify is indeed launching across the pond.

Our contract with Spotify is for worldwide licensing so all Label Worx content will automatically be available in new territories that they expand into.

What are people saying about Spotify :

"Spotify is so good" - Mark Zuckerberg (CEO and Founder of Facebook)

"It blows the doors off anything in the market" - Los Angeles Times

"Those who have tried Spotify know it's like a magical version of iTunes in which you've already bought every song in the world." - WIRED

"The cekestial jukebox is no pipe dream; it's here now." - TIME

"Spotify makes music fun again, just like the iPod did nearly 10 years ago" - Billboard.biz

Label Worx are pleased to announce the addition of Wasabeat to our Digital Service Providers list.

In addition to the PC & Mobile sites Wasabeat is also running a beta of a blog type news portal (www.urawasa.com) and manages online radio promotions & weekly radio shows in collaboration with J-Wave Tokyo, the largest domestic online radio station in Japan, as well as with Zip-FM in Nagoya, and internet's TCY Radio.

Marketing, promotion and collaborations include not only local promoters and nightclubs but also the likes of tour collaborations with PUMA and other major brands.

Apple officially announced iCloud on the 6th June. This is Apple's seamless approach to cloud computing and will be launching "this fall" (no exact date given). This service will be available to everybody for free with compatible devices.

You can read all about iCloud and it's many features here - apple.com/icloud

In regards to iTunes and the music aspects of iCloud two new services we unveiled - "iTunes in the Cloud" and "iTunes Match".

iTunes in the Cloud

"With iCloud, the music you purchase in iTunes appears automatically on all your devices. You can also download your past iTunes purchases. Where you want, when you want."

If you have multiple iOS devices this really takes the hassle out of syncing your music. You simply buy it once on your Mac, PC or iOS device and it automatically appears on your other devices. Apple are now also allowing you to register and sync to 10 devices to your account (up from 5). There is no extra charge to the customer and no extra royalties to the labels for this. You could do this manually before, Apple have just automated the process. Pretty neat we think!

iTunes Match

We are still digesting exactly how this will work and how exactly you will get paid but the below is Apple's detailed description regarding iTunes Match :

If you want all the benefits of iTunes in the Cloud for music you haven't purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. It lets you store your entire collection, including music you've ripped from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. For just $24.99 a year.

Here's how it works: iTunes determines which songs in your collection are available in the iTunes Store. Any music with a match is automatically added to your iCloud library for you to listen to anytime, on any device. Since there are more than 18 million songs in the iTunes Store, most of your music is probably already in iCloud. All you have to upload is what iTunes can't match. Which is much faster than starting from scratch. And all the music iTunes matches plays back at 256-Kbps iTunes Plus quality - even if your original copy was of lower quality.

So that's iTunes Match. The benefits we can all agree are pretty great and the annual price makes this service a steal. We have some points that need clarifying from Apple regarding royalty payments, how they prevent matching of illegal content and pricing for different territories so we will follow up on this post with the finer details along with an official launch date as soon as we know.

If you are attending the day conference also this year and are available for a possible meeting then we would love to get together.

Jigsaw Recordings was founded by Michael Badal and DJ Zya in August of 2007. For such a young label the brand is developing rapidly and gaining a reputation not to be underestimated. Some of the key releases from the Jigsaw catalogue have been Michael Badal's "Colours", Deadmau5's "Dr Funkenstein", DJ Zya's "Windy City", Myon & Shane 54's "All Night Rock And Roll", Matt Cerf's "Good Talkin'", and Maarten Hercules's "You Just Take It". Remixers have included the very talented Squash 84 (Komytea), Ashley Wallbridge, Thomas Penton, Paul Wicked, and others. While still being relatively new, Jigsaw is gearing up for its 50th release this month after signing up for distribution with Label Worx.

Label Worx launches their brand new website. The much needed new site clearly illustrates the services that our company is now offering including Mastering & Web Services that were missing from the previous site.

We have also launched our new blog where you can keep up to date with news and updates from the Label Worx camp.

"The new website looks fantastic. We have needed a new one for a while and I'm glad it's finally launched" - Chris Chambers - Director

Mad Hatter Recordings burst onto the scene in the summer of 2008 and has rapidly grown to become a favorite Techno label for many DJ's. They have 20 releases under their belt already and have firmly captured the attentions of many world renowned DJ's such as Carl Cox who included some Mad Hatter tracks on his Carl Cox Space Ibiza 2009 & Carl Cox Main Stage (Mixmag) compilation CD's.

"A label definately worth watching over the next 12 months" - Carl Cox, Jan '09.

Label Worx is extremely pleased to welcome Mad Hatter Recordings on board and happy to announce that we will now be exclusively managing their world wide digital distribution.

Paul van Dyks latest single-release Home, is yet another collaboration with Johnny McDaid, former singer of the British cult band VEGA4, and the man behind the massive PvD release: Time of Our Lives. Bringing the very best from these two amazing artists, Home electrifies hardcore fans, while keeping a finger on the emotional pulse of music lovers the world over. A mixture of classic Paul van Dyk energy and Johnny's iconic lyrical style, this track perfectly embodies the fusion of electronic and rock sensibilities, blending emotive vocals with hard hitting beats or a track that simply can't be topped.

With three gorgeous remixes, this classic in the making takes a turn at the hands of PvD himself, Wippenberg and Cosmic Gate, each lending their inimitable styles to this stellar release, giving new perspectives to a track that is no doubt, destined for dance music greatness. More Remixes to be released soon on MCD and digital format.
