More About Our Review Services Through Missing Beat
We Want To Work With Emerging Artists!
The review service offered entails a lot of work including spending enough time listening to your work to give you our best take on your music. After the review is completed, we will send it to you to look over and we will make any edits or corrections deemed necessary by our staff or you the artist, in regards to the usual suspects, such as incorrect spelling of band members, links etc.
Once that process is complete, we will then begin to post your review on the several sites we have partnered with (see Syndicate Sites list on right sidebar), our blogs including an RSS Feed Link on each individual review page from our site. Besides your own page on our site, you will have many other links to refer your fans to or to use in your press kits. This is a very time consuming process and we feel it is of great value to the artists that decide to use it (see testimonials). The distribution of your review is the main reason we are asking for a nominal fee for our time.
We will send you an easy to read Word document with a list of sites and links within a two week timeframe. This eliminates sending several emails and also puts all of your links into one place so your can access them quickly. Expect higher traffic volume on your site once we alert you the campaign begins.
If for some reason you feel you do not want the review posted that is your decision however we are not in position to refund your fee if we have already put the time and effort into getting an honest opinion of your work to you. Also if we have received your payment and decide not to review your CD we will send you your payment back, however if its a pay pal payment it will be minus the small transaction charge. We will never charge anyone for listening to music whether we like it or not, it is what we love to do!
A review from us has tremendous lasting value and we try to focus on the positive however it is still a legitimate review with constructive criticism included if necessary. We do not want to waste our time on the negative aspects of someone's work, and if there is just too much we opt not to cover the music. There is enough negative to be found in the media everywhere you look, thus our policy of returning your fee if we decide not cover your music from some reason, mainly because we feel it does not have enough value for a potential listener or for us to work with you in other areas, such as getting a press release out or recommending you to our internet radio partners for further exposure.
If you do not want the network distribution of your review and would like to submit your music for consideration and placement on our site then feel free to send the CD in.
If you have any questions and would like to receive a phone call to discuss anything just let us know where you can be reached and what is the best time to call.
