Kerrang! Radio partners with Slicethepie
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 16 February 2010
Kerrang! Radio has signed a new deal with fan-to-band funding site Slicethepie which will allow unsigned bands to promote their music to both the station’s listeners and music programmers.
Fans will be able to upload tracks for Kerrang! consideration via Slicethepie. Listeners will be encouraged to vote for their favourites, and then the most popular will then be reviewed by Kerrang!’s producers and presenters, with a number being selected to be played on air. The partnership will also see a number of third party apps launched, which will allow fans and bands to spread their favourite new music across social networks.
Head Of Specialist Music and Kerrang! evening show presenter, Loz Guest told CMU: “Not only will this benefit artists but it’ll make the selection process more democratic. We’re sent literally hundreds of demos each week that all deserve thorough evaluation and it’s cool that our listeners can now be a part of this”.
