Facts & Data About Music Xray First the facts: • Music Xray is the music industry's only dedicated A&R platform. • The company is venture backed. • It harnesses the latest technology to the benefit of musicians and those who seek new songs & talent. • It enables the industry to open the doors of opportunity to artists everywhere while eliminating much of the hassle of separating the wheat from the chaff. • It's transparent and fair – making the A&R process more about how good an artist is and less about whom they know (or who they can reach on their own or of whom they can request a favor). In other words, Music Xray is professional. · It guarantees artists get heard by those they submit to within a reasonable amount of time (unheard of in this business). Now the data: • More than 850 songs have been selected for real industry opportunities in the past 60 days alone! These deals include placement in major Hollywood movie soundtracks, major TV network theme songs, major and cable network series placement, reality show auditions and placement, radio station playlist adds, label deals, magazine features, blog features, publishing deals, management deals, production deals and sample deals. • Over 1200 industry professionals now use Music Xray to conduct at least some of their A&R activities. Among these professionals are top Hollywood music supervisors, major & indie label A&Rs, radio stations, influential music bloggers… • The industry's ONLY song to opportunity matching system (S2O) has created an effective way of delivering a high percentage of relevant music to the professionals' in-box without restricting outliers and creative innovation from reaching their ears. • Music Xray's back-end statistics (Collective A&R) has itself produced deals between artists and industry professionals by highlighting high-potential songs that have been well-rated by multiple industry professionals yet remained unsigned.
