We know there are a lot of websites that provide services to musicians. Many of them hype you up and then let you down. We know that can lead you to think Music Xray is too good to be true.

What separates Music Xray from other sites that provide services to musicians and the industry?

Although our site design does not yet scream “innovation!”, our services sure do. We have harnessed technology in ways that will be the industry standard for years to come.

Here is a short list of what we’ve done over the past 24 months… and we’re just getting started.

• Created the first & only level playing field in industry history for access to professionals and opportunities making it no longer dependent upon who a musician knows but rather on their talent, skill, & market appeal (or that of their music).

• First & only to guarantee a listen and response to the submitter from the industry professional to whom material was submitted.

• First & only platform to achieve adoption by major labels for direct submissions.

• First & only major label signings via an online A&R platform.

• Three times higher user to success ratio than the closest competitor (35.7%).

• First & only automatic song to opportunity matching system.

• Over 14,000 songs & acts selected for opportunities by industry professionals in the past 18 months.

• An innovative fan acquisition service the identifies & engages fans, and offers the ability to monetize new fans instantly via a creative twist on online tip jars.

• First & only automatic artist to fan matching system.

Other notable achievements include…

• The most advanced music search engine in the world including a sonic similarity search feature where industry professionals upload music that sounds like what they are seeking and they are returned similar-sounding results.

• First & only company to ever effectively crowd-source the music industry enabling professionals to leverage the ears of their peers.

This is worth repeating with additional emphasis:. Every industry professional who uses Music Xray benefits from the collective filtering power of the other 1400 professional users. No company, no website, no A&R tool has ever previously even achieved the necessary industry-adoption to harness the collective filtering power of so many professionals who make their living with their ears. This feature alone gives all our users (professionals and musicians alike) a competitive advantage.

• First & only push-music discovery service that pays music fans to hear & discover new music.

Musicians face enough challenges amid this changing industry. When shady sites don’t deliver the results they promise, musicians become rightfully jaded and suspicious.
