Hello,

With the introduction of the calendar and the 'listened to' flag as a result of suggestions from within the community, it's very obvious how important your insight into the development of this is. As you use the platform, you probably already have some ideas on what you want to see from this. Although they were two quite simple additions, they are benefitting both us at the label and the artists we have in the community a great deal. For those of you who were having problems using the calendar on a Mac, USE THIS LINK. I will include it in the links section of this page.

So the next question is, as our community is getting bigger what do you expect from it as artists? As mentioned before, this is now the method of demo submission to the label and it is working well. More is getting listened to, presented to A&R and more acts are being investigated through this process.

However, there are further opportunities that exist when using a platform such as this that are well worth investigation and discussion within the A&R blogs.

The first thing I want to do, is hear your ideas on functionality/concepts outside the simple submission process. For example, could more tie-in's with other platforms be established? If so, where and with who? Would you like to see the better acts within Vox being promoted in other ways, such as getting some radio/inclusion in regular syndicated podcast? Has their been a function on another platform that you'd like to see here? Also, with the introduction of services like sellaband, or slicethepie do you think there could be more elements of offering a sliding-scale development for new talent using our resources at hand? Would you even like to see a different kind of label stemming from a community such as this?

This is simply the ideas stage at the moment but there have been a number of discussions within the community which have highlighted some interesting ideas and I would be interested to hear what you think could be done with Vox. 

Hope all is well with you
