REMONETISING THE RELATIONSHIP
MUSICTANK LOUNGE - New Website & Membership Offer
MUSICTANK WEBSITE
A bit like Wembley Stadium (though minus the disputes!), the new site has gone through a long period of redevelopment and as I hope you'll agree, has been well worth the wait...
Launching on 11th April, if you've not yet checked it out may we urge you to do-so and take advantage of a time-limited FREE offer! Importantly, any bookmarks you may have of any page from the old site may not load and will need changing, so please be sure to edit your bookmark to:
The new site is intuitive and maintains a simple design ethos - ease of use and enhanced functionality. In short, the new-look website offers new services and functions for all, and also marks the beginning of MusicTank's first ever membership scheme.

MusicTank has also taken the opportunity of this full website re-launch to fully embrace the MP3 / podcast revolution. In addition to exclusive research documents, reports and full event transcripts, for the first time ever, members will be able to access MP3 recordings of all MusicTank events, eventually spanning the entire archive from 2004 onwards. These may be instantly streamed on the website's own detachable, virtual player and may also be downloaded to the member's computer and transferred to any MP3 player.

These recordings feature key representatives from industry bodies such as BPI, IFPI, PPL; major labels; the independent sector; major non-music companies such as Nokia and (in)famous artists, managers, producers. They range from fascinating pre-SonyBMG merger debates to discussion of Dylan Decaffs long before Starbucks launched its own label and also cover consistently 'hot' topics such as copyright, DRM and the role of digital.
FORUMS
The introduction of members-only online discussion boards also means that MusicTank debate will now be able to carry on after the conclusion of regular Think Tank sessions and in advance of future forums - allowing members more input in the shaping of MusicTank events to come.
NON-MEMBERS
The new MusicTank website also features an array of additional functional improvements designed to complement the all-new membership scheme.
Key among these is the introduction of a comprehensive one-stop music industry year planner, enabling visitors to keep abreast of all upcoming MusicTank events and to see how these fit in with and complement other key goings-on in the music business, from events to festivals.

As a collaborative community of UK music industry representatives, MusicTank is first and foremost about sharing knowledge. Over the past few years, countless individuals have attended MusicTank's range of industry workshops and seminars. The new website has been designed to provide more opportunities for individuals such as these to share and expand upon the knowledge acquired as well as to tap into the new opportunities and resources MusicTank will continue to provide.
