Estelle Asmodelle in Urban Mainstream Magazine

Recently I was selected to have my new single, ‘Electrix’ from the self titled album ‘Electrix’ included in a new trance album entitled: ‘DC Electronica Compilation Vol. 1, ‘ By DC Networks in Italy, due for release 1.8.2010 – its a great opportunity!

The album features 10 artists from around the globe with only 10 tracks, all electronic and with a trance feel. So my contribution is a good one.

You can listen to the track on MySpace and see what was selected!:

I just got selected by Urban Mainstream magazine :

This is for a feature on mty music, they said – “Your music is phenomenal. We will do a write up in the magazine.”

So keep you all posted!

ELECTRONIC MISCHIEF – the album review by Brenden Sponge is now online at EvilSponge.com – see this link:

http://www.evilsponge.org/albums/Asmodelle__ElectronicMischief.htm

All is all its a pretty good review – and clearly Brenden has understood without coaxing that this album is indeed an electronic music tribute album to all my favourite electronic artists:

“Those might be the standout tracks, but there is a lot to like here. Electronic Mischief is an enjoyable collection of mellow, minimal electronica. Asmodelle is not breaking any new boundaries here, and yet her work is delightfully outside the ever changing mainstream of electronic – no fractured, stuttering, dubstep beats here! All the same, this is a rather enjoyable album. If, like me, you enjoyed the electronica of the 1990s, then Electronic Mischief is an album to check out.”

Read the full review its not too bad.

I have been noticing a huge movement towards free downloadable music, and so sales for music CD and online purchases have clearly dropped. I simply thought this was a trend in electronics music, but after reading about music promotion and sales in general it seems to be a general trend in the music industry. So much so that many small music companies have gone out of business.

After reading that the best sales for new music is by unilateral promotion of music across the internet, to saturate the market – and then hopefully sales of music will increase accordingly. I am skeptical but I am prepared to try it anyway.

So my music website is:

Here are the promotional websites that play and list my music for sale, many simply have a few tracks:
