The Compilation CD will be made available before the event begins to over 500 major and indie record label execs, music publishers, film and television music supervisors, music producers, and managers. The CD will also be handed out in Austin during the event and will be available for download to 1,000 RedGorilla VIPs (music industry professionals and bands) who will be given a special dog-tag necklace with a download code. The CD will also stream in a hot podcast on the Next Big Hit New Music Mix - currently the largest indie music program on the internet with over 80,000 listeners each month. You can secure your spot on the Compilation CD for only $500 (and if you're not performing at RedGorilla but want to be on the CD, you can still submit your song!) Your song will reach nearly 100,000 new people, and you'll also receive 10 copies for yourself. Space is limited, and there are only a few slots remaining, so take advantage of this incredible opportunity and secure your track today.
