They also have tones of previously released articles about recording techniques, gear reviews, and the music business.

Star Polish - This website is devoted to making you a music star. They have a lot information in their advice section about the music business, record labels, and information for promoting.

Taxi - Taxi is a company that will promote your songs to try to get them published, recorded, and on TV or in movies.

Athens Musician - If you are an artist in Athens, OH you need to be on this website. They list all the venue information, help get promotion for your shows, and are an overall great resource for musicians.

Go QCA - Need your CD pressed up? High-quality Posters? They are really good. Located in Cincinatti, this is where we get all our stuff at.

RIAA - Recording Industry Association of America Not a big fan of their actions against people downloading songs, however, they are they are looking out for the musicians... kind of. Look to see if the Los Viejos Blanquitos album has made Gold or Platinum yet.

Courtney Love Does the Math - This is a great little intro to what the big labels are doing. We at Brick City aren't money hungry corporate slaves. We are college kids trying to learn the music business ropes. We do this for the love of music and we don't personally gain any money from this.

MixOn-line - This is a great magazine about the recording and music industry, however, this one is written in the United States. They have great gear reviews, recording advice, live sound, film and gam audio, and general music business information.

TapeOp - This is another good magazine. This one does much less gear reviews, but has alot of interviews with producers, artists, and music industry people. Their forum is also a great source for information. Best of all this magazine is FREE, but you have to wait a while to get your first issue and they don't always come, but thats what you get with 3rd class mail.
