Oh I bet the title of this entry really caught your attention didn’t it? Sorry to say, this entry isn’t about having sex and music together, well maybe in way it is. IndieMV - Musical Intercourse, happens to be the catchphrase that they coined. 
To the point, IndieMV.com is a social networking site that is place for independent musicians to get their sound out there and known. It also aims to provide a social networking service for not just the musicians, but the fans. Some of the features that IndieMV has to offer are video blogging, web-cam messaging, photo sharing, and of course, access to hundreds of music videos and interviews from independent artists. I would strongly recommend that any person who calls them self an “indie music fan” check this site out. Even if you’re more into mainstream music, this might be a good place to connect with other music fans and to hear some new bands.
On one hand this place might not seem very different from other social networking sites that allow you to video blog or upload your own videos, but here is one major difference I saw that (at least for the bands) will perk some interest. IndieMV wants to help independent artists get out there and get known and as a result they regularly provide opportunities for bands on IndieMV to gain the exposure they need by offering bands a range of opportunities to perform in front of new and different audiences. Right now IndieMV is holding one such opportunity which will send a band to Montreal, Canada. The band lucky band will not only receive roundtrip airfare and two nights accomodation, but the opportunity to perform on stage at the Unite Against AIDS concert.
IndieMV has a nice look to it and should be a great resource. Thanks! I have an Indie music review website as well. Indie culture is all about helping others hear what you’ve heard.
wow. this is great.
many talented bands out there are not given any breaks at all…
through this website, there’s a lot more chance that a band or a musically talented individual maybe discovered right? what a bright idea.
not only that… we can also put up a fund raising concert so we can help the needy.
thanks for sharing this site to us.
Cool site, i think it has promise, i’ll check it out and tell my friends. The only question is if it will rise above the social networking competition :cough: myspace :cough:
Thank you for this website. I was searching for something different than mySpace, I think this is the good one. The “slider” functionnality looks interesting.
