About Me

International Musicians Exchange Collaborative (IMEC). With an ever evolving musical world that is at once expanding through technological means while paradoxically getting smaller by the same virtue and with the ever growing number of independent musicians popping up around the globe there are an indefinite number of ways for us, as musicians and music lovers, to reach out to a potential worldwide fanbase. Thus, IMEC was born.
IMEC seeks to profit NOTHING off this venture. I'm just here to help get the word out about indy music.
In a nutshell, IMEC is musicians, music stores and music lovers, the world over, working together to promote and sell the works of independent artists interested in making there love of - and talent for - music known.
All great music was once "undiscovered". There IS a revolution happening; more and more, people who love music, be it college students, musicians or music officianados, people are looking for something more than the "mainstream" we're fed, more and more. While digital/electronic media gains in popularity, there are still those out there that want that physical, tangible recording, complete with notes and artwork.
Thus, you turn to your local "real" music store. As opposed to the "big box" type stores who will gladly sell you top 40 while puzzled by your indy request, it's the independant stores that house the music lovers as their employees. MyGen Profile Generator

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet artists wiling to work with other artists as well as their local indy music stores that are willing to sell the independent artists wares.
How it works, ideally and typically (ultimately, it's up to the other musicians you contact through this site) is like this; You have a cd that is your work or the work of someone YOU HAVE PERMISSION TO SELL FOR THEM. You find another musician in an area (through IMEC) where you would like to market your music. Contact them and see if they would be interested in working, cooperatively, with you to do an exchange via hooking them up with their local indy music store. Whether you handle the money for the other artist and vice-versa (this would be entirely up to your level of trust...IMEC holds NO responsiblity for any money/property loss and cannot be held liable accordingly) or you are just the person who gives them contact info for the store, the intention is that each party ends up getting their music in another market. The rest is up to you.
It's also important to note that while beng a part of this collaborative implies that there is an interest on your part, no-one should by any means feel obligated to work with EVERY person that might come your way. We all live very busy lives and can and should only be expected to do what we feel capable of handling.
IMEC.
