THE BLUE DUCK STORY
Jason Ronan (CEO) knew the day would come when simply listening to great music would not be enough. It came in college after reading a quote, "Opening your own label is a chance to control the destiny of music you love." With a passion for the local music scene, Jason began studying the music industry, and interning at local record labels, including Somerville MA based Q Division Records and Tone-Cool Records in Wellesley Hills MA. John, a close friend who shared the same vision, soon offered his services, providing superior web and graphic design for the label.
The two sold most of their stuff on e-bay to come up with enough money to start the label and help fund their favorite bands with record deals. The contracts, very artist friendly: 50% for the label, 50% for the bands…not typical in an industry where it is commonplace to see bands making pennies on dollars. "Our bands trust us as their friends and business partners; having more income from music sales gives them more opportunities and a fighting chance to succeed. We seek out bands that not only have a great sound but that know how to effectively promote themselves. Most of our artists have college degrees or some college and are quite business savvy. Like Blue Duck Records, they work hard to establish their name and grab as many opportunities as possible." The Blue Duck Business structure is working quite well...along with a solid and steadily growing indie-rock fan base, they now have distribution throughout
Japan and soon in the United States.
Blue Duck Records would not exist without the help and encouragement of many, many people. Thank you to all who have been a part of our success!

Scorpion Records has teamed up with Elygen to bring you the next great website for music fans, bands and just about everyone in the industry!
BANDARRAY.com
We're people in the industry/scene who understand what musicians and fans want and need. We're creating a place where music in the most important thing. Remember when Myspace was a cool place for band to be discovered? Now in 2009 it's basically nothing but bands adding bands! Not to mention tons of fans have moved on to facebook because of all the band spam! Yeah that's right, sorry to tell you kids, but the industry knows your numbers are the result of "friend blasters" and spending day and night doing random add's. The countless "thanks for the friend request" comments are dead giveaways. So, what will be the site that Facebook defectors and music fans search when they want to hear some music? Where will you search to find T-shit printers or Cd manufacturers, agents, venues, stores?
Band Array Dot Com
Sign up now, get your band name before someone else steals it! Fans sign up and get free downloads from the bands! We're also reaching out to everyone from Tattoo shops to Promoters to Merchandisers.
So why join up to a new site? It has all the perks of Myspace, BUT, you can also create a store right on your page to sell ALL your merch including digital media! And the best part is, YOU get paid direct via PayPal. No middle man to cut into your profits! One stop for you and your fans! We're making it easy to search thru the site for any and all services you need to function in the music industry. And Hey, you can always use more exposure right?!?
Hey, How are you doing today? Im sending comments to everyone to let them know about my Tiesto remix. I can't put it on my Myspace because of the contest rules, but you can check it out on Beatport. If you like it, please sign in and vote for me by clicking SPIN. Thank you so much and hope to talk to you soon! Electronically yours, Joe http://www.beatportal.com/remix/detail/electric-types-club-remix/
