LP33.tv launches the underground’s answer to MySpace Music
From Venturebeat:
Today, LP33.tv, the company formerly known as MyAWOL, goes live with its intensely ambitious site for unsigned musicians. The site centers around a video player that features original music videos, short band documentaries and news clips, all produced by LP33’s team, itself. There are rapid edits, hipster rockers, punky pop princesses, and cooler-than-thou VJs, all hearkening back to the MTV and VH1 glory days of yore.
LP33’s goal is to create a platform for finding and promoting unsigned musical talent. The package, which includes artist’s bios and posts from “influential” bloggers, has greater scope and depth than that of competitor, Topspin Media, which has similar goals but less impressive flair. The whole thing, which we first glimpsed this summer, has many of the makings of terrific execution.
