We are happy that you are interested in joining our exciting new service and become an official GRindie -- Greek independent artist/label.

  First let's start with a basic overview of what we offer:

• A place to post your music. We give you an easy to use form for submitting your music.
• The ability to sell your music online. Besides selling your music on our website, we provide you with a simple code to put on your site for selling your songs.
• Revenue Splitting. mpGreek will pay you $0.45 per song purchased/downloaded.
• Feedback on Your Songs. With ratings for each individual song in different categories you will know how your listeners really feel about your music.
• Multiple Search Categories. Visitors can search by Song Title, Album Title, Artists and Genre.

To become a member of mpGreek, you must agree to the terms outlined in our contract. Here is a basic outline of the terms. If you want a full copy of this contract click here.

  Distribution contract outline of terms:

Below is an outline of the key points in our contract (in legalese, unfortunately).

• Non-exclusive license: you're giving us a license to sell your music, but you can sign agreements with others. This means you can sell your own CDs at concerts, as well as sign with another label.
• Contract is limited to music you submit: our contract extends only to the music you submit to us. There is no future obligation to send us your music.
• $0.45 revenue payout on music: our main revenue sources are selling your music to consumers. We’ll pay you $0.45 for each downloaded song.
• You own your music: if you've been previously signed, or are currently signed, to another record label, you may not be able to sign with mpGreek. Many recording contracts have exclusivity provisions in them, even if the record label goes under. You should consult a lawyer to see how your current recording contract limits you. Note that after signing with mpGreek, you will still 100% own the copyright to your music: you are simply granting us a non-exclusive license to it.
• Transparent bookkeeping: as a mpGreek musician/label, you can view every sale of your music in detail. We provide reports in HTML, Acrobat PDF, Text and as a spreadsheet download. 
• PR materials: you will supply us with album art, group photographs (high quality, suitable for posters and press kits), and a biography. You give us the right to use your likeness for promotional and merchandising purposes.

Thank you for your interest. Please click here to get a full copy of our contract.

  What does mpGreek do for you, the Greek musician?

• We are the most complete music destination for the Greek Market. Our users, record label affiliates and partners are interested in Greek music.
• We sell your music online. How much money does this really mean? We don't know yet. One thing we do know is that if users like your music and purchase it we will pay you the $0.45. A typical record label will pay you 25 cents to a dollar in royalties on a CD sale after they recoup their expenses (if that ever occurs).
• We help you get heard. Internet Radio, Kazaa, Napster etc have proven that people want to listen to music and share it with their friends. We provide all the technology to enable widespread Internet distribution in the Greek market, and we do it legally, without violating anybody's copyright and making sure you get paid.
• We keep the quality high. One big reason good music has trouble getting heard is that there's too much junk out there as well as there is no real destination for the Greek independent market. We filter it out, by recruiting artists/labels like you directly as well as listening to submissions.
• Your contract with us is totally non-exclusive and limited only to the music you send us: you can (and should) keep promoting your music yourself. You can print and sell your own CDs, compete with our web site; even sign with another record label. There is no long-term commitment to send us more music: if you want to part ways, don't send us any more music. We'll retain the right to keep finding money for the music you have sent us (and we'll keep sending you your commissions) and we won't have limited your rights to do anything you like with the music you have sent us.
