I have always wanted some sort of central place where I could find artists available in Last.fm. As things are, everyone is scattered all over the site and I am not permitted to join artist-only groups.

I want to browse new or upcoming artists, or famous ones if they're here! I want to know the latest news about releases and maybe free mp3s. I want to see new videos as soon as they're ready. Maybe you do too.

Last.fm does not allow spam, but that means it's harder for artists to put the word out. Hopefully, this is the middle ground.

Central Point Connected Artists

Central Point Global Tag Radio

Artists:

* create a dedicated thread
* put your artist/band name in the title and one or two genre identifiers (if you put 'indie', add something else to help us)
* this thread is all yours, to do with as you wish. Post your news and videos. Tell us about any promotional free mp3s.
* tag yourselves central point to appear in the global tag radio for this group
* put the group name in your sig so others can find it too

Listeners:

* this is where you can browse artists who also use Last.fm
* keep up-to-date with your favourites, chat, add as friends
* if you wish to help promote an artist who is not a Last.fm user, please PM me
* tag artists central point to help build the global radio
* put the group name in your sig so others can find it too

The Rules:

* Only one thread per artist. Duplicates will be removed.

* Site rules apply. Spammers / trolls / abusive people will be banned. No discussion, no appeal.
* Self-promo is permitted within dedicated threads only.
* I will moderate lightly as your leader but otherwise, the group is yours to have fun with.
* Group Connections are limited to 200. I will add the first 200 but after that, there isn't much I can do, hence my suggestion for central point global tag radio.

http://rock.warmwebradio.com/#home Catch some great Unsigned artists on tonight's show. From 2100-2300 CET. Or 2000-2200 GMT. Worldwide listeners will need to check their clocks with these timings. The show is hosted by Sussilo. But she's too modest to say so. I'm not, modesty doesn't do when this great lady. Gives her all to getting great lesser known artists heard. Please bring all your fans/friends with you. The show is really worth listening to. Thanks to all that do from Mike.

SilasCiaran: depends how much news you will have for us for each project.. You could have one thread listing all them then, every time you update it with news, you effectively bump it back to Page 1, so people will see that and your other projects. Or you could have one thread for each of your projects and update each one as and when. Advantage of this is news is focused for each project. Whichever you decide, please let me know. :)

Love this group, definitely going to be adding to it soon. I have a few projects, each of which is very different from the next. Am I allowed to make a separate thread for each? Do let me know, and thank you for creating this. What I always felt the 'lastfm users who are also artists' groups always lacked; interactivity.

I for all who visits Experimentalists group. I have some minds to create an online streamable group compilation album of all YOU guys who creates some experimental music and share it out of the last fm borders. If you want to be a part of it - write me email and send your song(s). Max - 3. It's all about spreading the free experimental music to the world. Be a part of it!

Welcome new members. :) Now the group's getting bigger and we have more artists here, it's getting harder for me to see when there's a new thread. If you start one, please could you come over to my page and leave me a shout so I can add you to the radios and Index? Thanks for helping me. :)
