MAG 01 - The very first 50K MUSIC MAG came out in March 2009

50K MUSIC – 100% home-made!

Where does 50K MUSIC come from? Originally I started 50K MUSIC as a “printed” mag.

Once there was the “SellaBand Tribune” featuring artists on SellaBand. Sometime in 2008 SellaBand did no longer publish the Tribune.

So I started writing the 50K MUSIC MAG. But the MAG was never intended to be a substitute for the Tribune.

The basic intention and idea of the MAG was to support SellaBand artists in promoting their music. Due to all the changes on SellaBand I decided to widen the focus to (fan-funded) independent music in general. So I support every independent artist who tries to fan-fund music.

Please contact me if you want the support of 50K MUSIC. I’m open minded for ideas and suggestions. But please have a little patience with me if I do not reply immediately to your requests. I do 50K MUSIC as a hobby  – so mostly my time for the website and the mag is very limited. I only ask you to be not so fussy when not everything looks perfect here

I decided, for transparency reasons, to state the following:

• I do not earn money for writing or publishing anything,
• I have invested a few Euros in several artists I write about here, but I guess I won’t earn money enough to make a living out of it,
• I try to “avoid” signed artists, but hey, if I love the music I’ll write about it,
• 50K MUSIC will definitely stay ad-free.
