Music Website Wednesday #6: Rumblefish

Music Licensing? Hunh? Books have been written on the topic of licensing your music. If you are really interested in the legal aspects of music licensing then you should check those books out or contact a licensed entertainment attorney. If you want to try to get your music played on tv, in movies, or in commercials and you do not have thousands of dollars to run a marketing campaign, and you'd like to make a little extra money, then check out www.rumblefish.com.

Rumblefish is an easy to use portal that connects advertisers and bands and artists looking to license their music. Basically artists upload music and marketers can browse the music and pick what they like. The license fee will then be split between rumblefish and the artist. Some of the advantages of going with rumblefish are no upfront costs and a 50% license split. Obviously music licensing is not for everyone and every band, but if you are interested in the concept check out rumblefish.com.
