Dear all:

Did you hear about Rontgenschall? It’s the first band that tours the 
Internet! Therefore they perform on blogs instead of stages! And today 
they are virtually rocking a Peruvian blog call at txitua.org! They have 
edited a nice video specially for their Peruvian and latino fans. They 
also sent a message to the artist community in Latin america encouraging 
them to use CC licenses. They did it in Spanish with subtitles in English.

Rontgenschall is a German band has that you could know, not only through 
their cool music but also for their style, their stages, their creative 
videos and their different mechanism of social networking that they use 
to spread their work: Del.icio.us Bittorent, Jamendo.com, myspace, 
youtube, hi5 and they use German CC licence: Atributtion, non 
commercial, share alike.

RONTGENSCHALL PRESS RELEASE
Contact: Dr. Reimund Blumen <hilfe at yourblogisourstage.com>

Your blog is their stage! Rontgenschall – not only the first band in 
history to tour the Internet but also re-thinking the music business 
thing. Four young men with staches and blitz & donner from electric 
guitars do the pop-star-in-reverse: their music is free and entirely 
promoted via the Internet. Download, copy and share it! Become a fan and 
get inspired – let’s try together an alternative  approach to promote 
and distribute music.

Rontgenschall – led by the wild and gefahrlich Dr. Reimund Blumen, 
Siegfried, Herr Stock and the nameless Bassplayer developed their own 
style of Geek Rock. They just  released »Hot & Wunderbar«: Five  sweet 
and stincky indie rock  singalongs you can download for  free. Discover 
»Almost Real Joy«  when you meet »Kicky Carmen«, the  girl from the spam 
mail. Enjoy 15  minutes of fame when they »Put  Gabi on TV« and make 
»Your  Glamorous Life« even better by  humming the »Blue Song of Death«. 
Rontgenschall consider themselves rather as an experimental than a 
band. They think music makes sense  when it is shared, covered, sampled 
  & sung in bathrooms. May be this is folk music 2.0.

They think music makes sense  when it is shared, covered, sampled  & 
sung in bathrooms. Maybe this is  that releases their music without any 
  record label on the Internet. Perhaps it  is the first band that was 
formed to  only do so. So it’s all about encouraging more  bands to 
liberate themselves from  traditional industrial mechanisms that  try to 
limit creativity to the selling  factor. The Internet is such an 
exciting  media because everyone can publish  content that could reach 
millions of  people all around the world. So if you like this 
philosophy, you  should spread the word for Rontgenschall! Become 
friends on MySpace, join their fan club, write a review on  their record 
at jamendo.com! If you  have a band, perhaps you are inspired  to make 
something similar. It is your creativity that should reach as many 
people as possible!
