KCRW launches MALCOLM music service to help indie bands in need

KCRW launches MALCOLM music service to help indie bands in need

Being a DJ at radio station can be an embarrassment of riches. And really, who's going to listen to you complain about having too much music to listen to. Santa Monica's terrifically wonderful public radio station KCRW is looking to take a little bit of the pain of finding new music for its DJs, with the launch of MALCOLM, a site that lets artists submit their music for consideration - a nice attempt at continued outreach in a medium so dominated by charts and major label interference. Bands can create profiles with images, bios and social media links, alongside up to three tracks.
