| Sonicbids and Film Music Network Partner to Launch Film Music Express Together Sonicbids and Film Music Network Enable Composers, Songwriters and Bands to Electronically Submit Music for Film and TV Music Industry Jobs Boston, MA – January 5, 2005 - Sonicbids today announced a partnership with The Film Music Network, the film and television music industry's largest trade organization. Through this partnership, Sonicbids will enable musicians to submit their music online directly to filmmakers, music supervisors, and industry decision makers who are looking for music for film and television projects. "We are pleased to announce our partnership with Film Music Network to give musicians the ability to submit their music online to film and television licensing opportunities," said Panos Panay, Founder & CEO of Sonicbids. "With over 2,500 partners and growing every day, this partnership marks the company’s foray into the film and TV licensing market as we continue to offer our members diverse opportunities for their music." The new Film Music Express service connects music supervisors with writers and performers around the globe, eliminating costly international marketing and delivery fees. The system knows no international boundaries and works equally well for situations where music buyers or music creators reside outside the United States. Film Music Express is using new Sonicbids technology that enables artists to upload specific songs for consideration to be placed in TV and film projects rather than be limited to the songs in their Sonicbids EPK™ (Electronic Press Kit). This provides both artists and partners more flexibility for the unique and specific music needs of film and television projects. "We're very excited to partner with Sonicbids, the industry's online music leader, to provide this exciting new system which will enable composers, songwriters and bands to get their music directly to music decision makers faster and at a greatly reduced cost. Music Supervisors we work with are excited about this new system which greatly speeds up the music review process by enabling them to click and listen to music online, rather than going through mailed in packages to dig out CDs and play them," said Film Music Network founder Mark Northam. Sonicbids has set the industry standard with its Electronic Press Kit (EPK™) platform that enables music industry professionals to send and receive press kits online. Used by tens of thousands of musicians, Sonicbids' EPKs offer an easy-to-use, web-based graphical interface containing all the basic information of a standard press kit, including music, photos and date calendar.
