New York / Seattle November 3, 2009

Audiosocket, a leading provider of pre-cleared independent music for licensing has partnered with Music Xray to increase the visibility of artists in its catalog as well as to enrich the data associated to each song, making it easier for Audiosocket clients to find the most appropriate music for their projects.

Audiosocket represents over 20,000 pre-cleared songs by over 1,100 artists. Music Xray provides rich song presentation packs that aggregate more data around each song than any other song hosting solution on the web. Audiosocket will export much of its catalog to Music Xray, creating a unique song presentation pack for each title. Audiosocket artists will then be able to fill in additional data fields (lyrics, bio, notes and metadata) as well as to track metrics and stats (Twitter mentions, blog mentions, P2P traders, Myspace views and comments).

Audiosocket plans to integrate the enhanced song data as well as the artist information into it’s own proprietary search engine and will at the same time expose its catalog to a wider audience due to the music being incorporated into Music Xray’s own search engine. Regardless of whether the music is found by interested licensees on Music Xray’s or Audiosocket’s search engines, commercial inquiries will be directed back to Audiosocket.

Additionally, Audiosocket artists will be able to use the resulting song presentation packs as media widgets to expand their marketing efforts across the web as well as to submit their songs to hundreds of mass exposure opportunities offered through Music Xray and to interact directly with top industry professionals who offer career coaching, mentoring and song critiques.

Jenn Miller, President of Audiosocket said, “This partnership makes our discovery process even smarter by enabling us to combine the extensive human tagging we do for each song to additional artist-added fields and the music intelligence technologies that Music Xray brings to the table.”

Mike McCready, CEO of Music Xray added, “We are excited to announce the first partnership of this kind with Audiosocket because they provide such a quality catalog which will be interesting to the hundreds of music industry professionals that use our site every day to interract directly with artists and to find songs for their projects. Music Xray is dedicated to making interactions between artists and industry professionals rewarding and that’s easy when you can start with great songs like those in the Audiosocket roster.”
