Une plateforme musicale qui permet de lever des fonds pour les groupes autoproduit? Ca s'appelle sellaband, et ça ressemble à une place d'investissement dans de jeunes talents. Explication du fonctionnement:
(En anglais, tiré de Techcrunch, je n'ai pas eu le temps de traduire, sorry) :
"the way it works is this: bands upload sample music to Sellaband.com, promote the heck out of their profile page and ask fans to chip in $10 per share of a recording that will be produced when the band raises $50,000. The fans can take their money back out at any time before the goal is met. Once recordings are made, they are offered for free on the Sellaband site, where ad revenue will be split between the bands (60%), Sellaband (30%) and the hired producer and manager.
Fans each get a copy of the recorded CD and bands are free to offer them any other benefits, like concert tickets, that they wish. Sellaband retains rights on the music for 12 months. The company seems confident that bands will be able to find 5,000 supporters (called “Believers”) willing to put up $10 apiece."
Et ça marche me direz vous? pas mal, puisque les premiers 130 groupes ont levé en une semaine entre 200 et 500$, et un groupe gothique des Pays-Bas a même levé 4500$...Wait and see...
