ATTENTION PROMOTERS -

If you want additional (free) promotion for any of your parties taking place between April 11 and May 15, I encourage you to post your events here:

www.breakbeatenergy.com/bbeforum (http://www.breakbeatenergy.com/bbeforum)

Please post your event NO LATER THAN Wednesday, April 8th. If you do not post your event, we cannot highlight that event on our newsletter - as the links in our newsletter will send readers directly to the party listed. **There is LIMITED SPACE for parties being listed - first come, first served.**

FOLLOW THE BEATS is BreakBeat Energy's monthly EDM newsletter that features interviews with headliners (big and up-and-coming djs) and local djs of all genres that have contributed to the scene. Also included is other EDM related information - such as upcoming parties, discussion topics, and an opinion article. This newsletter is for the EDM community - and is not genre specific

The April issue will include interviews with Ken "ECB" Christensen from Chicago and local favorite Brandon Black.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to get extra exposure for your parties!

Thanks much,

Angela

What is the total coverage of the newsletter? (how many people does it go to, what locales, etc)

we have a mailing list of about 400-500 people, plus several kind souls that forward the newsletter to other mailing lists. :) (Which we welcome everyone to do...)

I forgot to add that this is NOT just for breakbeats...FOLLOW THE BEATS caters to all genres (as indicated by the parties listed and Ransom interview in our March issue).

You should explain more about why this is worth the promoters' time, Angela! Who is your newsletter reaching that they aren't already reaching, etc.


p.s. 4/17 konkrete jungle @ jv, put it in!!! :)

I thought I did....we have a mailing list of 400-500 people, many of whom probably don't live online like we do. Regardless of that, even, I would think the extra exposure with zero cost to the crews would be enticing enough.

Just trying to get the word out about all the parties coming up in the next several weeks...the thing is, if you DONT list your party, the other parties that ARE listed will certainly get more attention...so it would probably be a good idea to promote on our site and get your party on the newsletter - just to be sure. ;)

I just posted my events there. Is there an email address we can send submissions to? I send an email with my events every month and it would be cool to just add the newsletter address to my list.

I would say send them to angela@breakbeatenergy.com

But don't quote me on that.

Update: I have about 6 slots left to list upcoming parties. I have no DNB parties listed (so get on it!) and no parties for the last weekend of April or the first half of May (with the exception of Final Destruction).

I realize that its rather early but if you have any parties set up and ready to go between April 24 and May 15, I recommend you post them on our site quickly.

Phill Harmon - our very own logictheorist

He's been published on several travel websites (thanks to his worldly adventures), he's a great writer - and has plenty to contribute to the newsletter. It only seemed obvious to ask him to write for us.

ATTENTION

Either tonight or first thing tomorrow morning, I'm sending out The Tickler Edition - a supplement to FOLLOW THE BEATS. Basically its a mini-version of the newsletter highlighting upcoming parties - particularly the events that popped up after the April issue of FOLLOW THE BEATS went out. Its going out to the same audience that receives FOLLOW THE BEATS.

If you want your party listed, post your event here:

http://www.breakbeatenergy.com/bbeforum/viewforum.php?f=13

DEADLINE IS 9PM TONIGHT.

thanks.
