Indie911 Strikes Pioneering Artist Marketing and Discovery Deal with "Highnote"

LOS ANGELES-(Business Wire)-August 13, 2008 - Leading artist services network Indie911 announced a new partnership with Highnote to provide artists and record labels with a pioneering streaming music discovery and promotion service. Highnote powers the targeted delivery of artist inventory into music streams across the web, and the partnership will leverage Indie911's content and artist services platform to deliver a new paradigm in music discovery.

For users, the partnership provides a new way of finding great content already available on Indie911's Hoooka.com music discovery network - by simply listening. Highnote's "wisdom of the crowds" based streaming platform aggregates music content and then plays the songs that users respond to most.

Additionally, Indie911 artists can now use the Highnote Inserts promotion platform to have their music played directly adjacent to popular, similar artists anywhere users are listening. Highnote's unique machine learning system relays only music inventory that has relevance within the music stream for the end user, maximizing return on investment for the artist and the listening experience for the user.

This service will be provided through Highnoteradio.com, Hoooka.com, and via the Hoooka widget, allowing artists to be distributed globally and inserted automatically within streams that listeners deem desirable.

Justin Goldberg, Indie911's CEO states, "Highnote's system is at the cutting edge of where the music industry and technology meet because their system enables advanced listener intelligence and exposes great new music, which is what Indie911 and its Hoooka network are about."

"We could not be happier to be working with the team at Indie911. We strongly believe in what they are doing for independent artists and we are excited to help them build artists' careers by engaging positively with listeners across the web," said Scott Welch, Chief Music Officer at Highnote.
