I’m loving what James from Maps is doing on his blog.
He’s been releasing homemade mixes of music he likes for his fans. Doesn’t sound particularly exciting? I think it is – its a great example of a musician using digital media to do for their fans the same things their fans do for each other.
Anyone who’s a music fan or ever had a crush has made someone a mixed CD (or mix tape if you’re my age!) and being able to get something similar from your favourite artist is just great. OK, maybe not QUITE so personal – but I’m still loving it, especially since James is putting some context about the music around it.
Now… countdown to the next single…
