MusicDish LLC, a leading industry magazine publisher and artist development company, announced a partnership with the Music Discovery Network, serving the music community by providing alternative marketing and distribution. Under the partnership, MusicDish Network artists will have their albums included in the MDN catalogue, available through MDN's online store and listed in MDN's AfterTouch, a new music catalog/magazine (catazine) incorporating artists interviews and industry articles.

In addition to publishing featured articles on selected MusicDish Network artists, AfterTouch will include a MusicDish section highlighting new releases available from its artists. MusicDish will also provide MDN with industry articles for publication in AfterTouch. AfterTouch has a circulation of 10,000 readers - 35 percent artists, 25 percent other industry professionals, and 40 percent consumers.

"AfterTouch has done an impressive job over the last decade cultivating a very valuable audience of music buyers we feel are underserved by retailers and online stores," explained MusicDish founder Eric de Fontenay. "MDN has really worked with us to provide a complete solution: a music buying audience to whom we can market and sell our artists CDs."

All MusicDish Network artists will also be featured on MDN sites CreativeMusiciansCoalition.com, MusicDiscoveryNetwork.com and MDNStore.com. In addition to supplying content from its music magazines, MusicDish will prominently expose MDN through its online portals and associated newsletters, as well as expanding AfterTouch's readership through its syndication network.

"Marketing is the life-blood of success," says Ron Wallace. "It's absolutely mandatory for artists to keep their faces in the public's eye to get anywhere in this competitive world. The combined muscle of the MusicDish Network and the Music Discovery Network is an excellent opportunity for MusicDish and Creative Musicians Coalition artists to grow their careers far, far beyond the ordinary."
