Mims and Capitol go virtual

by FULLMETAL

MONDAY JULY 2, 2007

According to reports, Capitol Records has begun a partnership with the highly popular social world There.com, to promote some of their artists, including new star Mims, within the virtual community.

In the coming months, artists are scheduled to make appearances in an exclusive venue created just for Capitol, dubbed “The Tower”. There, fans of artists/bands can socialize with them, as well as buy virtual, and real world merchandise from one of many available online kiosks. Joining up with the community is free, and future acts such as KoRn, and the Beastie Boys have also been named to appear.

“We know that consumers are spending a lot of time in virtual worlds and There.com offers a completely new way to promote music, both emerging talent and recognized artists, allowing artists to really connect with their fan bases,” said Syd Schwartz, Senior Vice President of Digital Strategy, for Capitol Music Group.

“Virtual worlds also give us a new revenue channel to promote our artists and sell virtual and real world branded merchandise to consumers.” “Capitol Music Group is a natural fit for There.com because of our broad demographic, brand safety, and PG-13 environment. The company demonstrates its brand leadership by being one of the first music labels to leverage this new medium to connect artists and fans,” said Michael Wilson, CEO of Makena Technologies.

“This partnership also demonstrates how Makena’s platform can be used as the ‘new film,’ which companies like Capitol Music Group can leverage to build a whole new consumer experiences utilizing our user safety and content protection features.”
