The Local based music company, Jagged House co. Ltd, has just launched the re-structured web site offering a variety of services and new integrated features. The web site will be fully functional and officially launched in various countries end of July. We`re happy to announce that we have an official reported 43,567 reported hits in the first 7 days of our 2 month test period.
In the wake of the music industry`s rapid consolidation, the threat of digital piracy, increased competition and a lack of long-term artist development, Jagged House is now a multifaceted media organization dedicated to its clients` needs in an evolving environment. Re-structured like a small record label, there are separate departments, devoted to every area of an artist`s career, including radio promotion, marketing, publicity, new media, tour production and management, merchandising, branding, distribution & international licensing.
“Local music has boomed these last 5 years. It’s an unfortunate circumstance that the international industry has seen so many Record labels close down these last 3 years, sell outs and a sharp decline in cd sales resulting in less support to new artists. This in turn had a direct effect on the way the music model works for new upcoming artists and there has never been a time where artists have to do so much DIY. “Said Howard Keith, director of Jagged House.
It’s no surprise that this sector is been given so much importance and music companies are investing so much money nowadays. This is also echoed by other sectors such as print media, retail outlets, banks and many others.
“We’ve used the internet in the past but not to this extent and definitely not in this format. We’ve now changed our model from an artist management to a music company offering an ‘umbrella’ to artists comprised of various core businesses: Artist Management, Production facilities, Music Publishing, Live Music agency, Import & Export platforms and the latest addition of an on-line Store offering free delivery of artist’s cds, tickets and merchandise” added Howard Keith. “This will enable us to work hand in hand with record companies, promoters and artists on a worldwide platform.”
The complex structure of the new site, which will be visited by industry professionals, music lovers and artist fans, was entrusted to Brokenaxe handling both the front and back end of this web site. The web site is divided in 10 sections, some of which further sub divide into other sections.
The artist roster of Jagged House includes Ira Losco, Tribali, The Rifffs, Airport Impressions and Red Electrick. |
