Gone Digital - Heaven n Back

As promised we want to update everyone on the way we are using social media and social networks to grow Ginny Vee as an Online artist.
The last weeks have been very busy and we want to share some key updates.

Digital distribution is one of the foundation blocks of today's music artist. We believe that you cannot make "money" as such from music so we have released all of Ginny's Music for free. You can simply go - click and download straight from these sites:

SOUND CLOUD  -  https://soundcloud.com/ginnyvee/tracks



REVERBNATION http://www.reverbnation.com/rpk/ginnyvee




However we found that many people - even if the songs are available for free - want to download from the iTUNES store or GOOGLE PLAY to android in a higher quality audio format that goes straight to their iPHONE or ANDROID

iTUNES https://itunes.apple.com/it/album/heaven-n-back-single/id935991341?l=en


AMAZON
http://www.amazon.com/Heaven-n-Back/dp/B00P4AANTO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1415781509&sr=8-2&keywords=Ginny+Vee



GOOGLE PLAY

But as with everything digital in the music industry - fad come fast and go fast. The digital "Ownership" era seems to be passing fast - so we also want to ensure that Ginny's music is available for everyone that wishes to stream the live music. So we have also made Ginny Vee's music available on as many streaming services as possible: here's a few of the big ones >>

In the coming weeks we will ensure that you can get Ginny Vee's Music on as many digital media sources as possible. If you have a favorite then just let us know and we will ensure that you get it.

BUT we need help from you - Ginny needs help from you. 

The music industry is no longer based on record sales - it is based on music as the core - but then social sharing - social media. What we would ask is that you share these sources as many times as you can. Please visit the sites or the links and share as wide as you can. This will get the music of Ginny recognized - spread and known about. Our goal at A Star Made by You has always been to create a social media musician from nowhere - and we are getting there. We have over 40,000 hard core fans now across many of the social media platforms such as GOOGLE PLUS, FACEBOOK, TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, TUMBLR, BLOGGER  and host of social music sites. But now we ant to really promote Ginny's music - so we need YOUR help to make sure that as many people as possible get to hear this song and the other great music by Ginny.





Recently we also added a bonus video of "Heaven n Back" on YouTube. Although never originally set up as the definitive Heaven n Back video - we shot a series of "glamour" shots of Ginny in the Studio to create a Promo Show Reel. Last week we decided that some of the scenes were actually really good - so we have edited them together into a small video clip 

You can get all of Ginny's videos - music and behind the scenes videos by subscribing to her video channel here: SUBSCRIBE HERE

In the past 12 months we have made huge progress with GINNY VEE becoming a well known sound, face and brand across social media. We would like to thank the thousands of Fans that support her, share her social media, sounds and make sure that everyday she grows. We are committed to making Ginny a huge Digital Star and will bring her music and videos to as may platforms as possible.
All suggestions are welcome and all sharing of her digital content is granted to anyone for FREE. So go ahead - copy - share and download as much as you like - Ginny has gone Digital.

Long Week - Working on Brand Image



It's been a long week for the entire team working on the Ginny Vee #brand. We've been refining in the studio to try and ensure we really get the right sound into the songs that defines the "sound brand" we want with Ginny Vee.

There's a certain set of sounds the musicians have been working hard on to ensure that the Ginny Sound is consistent across the entire range of #songs that she is working on. With this "guide" under the music we are adding the incredible #vocals of Ginny to give a unique  and stunning sound.

We've been asked many time is: How is the sound of Ginny Vee?


Well it's very much a modern pop sound - but we've been using some classic synths to generate rich deep layers in the tracks. Using a #midi input to capture the synth generated sounds into #protools where the tracks are meticulously built, layered and rendered. (we've been asked what we are using by some #techheads)

The sound engineers have been taking cues from the 80's and 90's to blend in with modern progressive beats, ambient sounds and some incredible new tools that give amazing effects with filters, fades and add vast space to the music.

Each track has a unique Ginny Vee Brand - but each and every one is a stand apart work - from up-beat almost dance tracks, to deep pop, to ballads, to funk. We've been working with talented session musicians that have added amazingly funky #guitar riffs, and rich #piano tracks. This blend of synths, loops, and real instruments is creating a very rich sound structure indeed.

Ginny has been laying down the vocals as we move to the final versions of the tracks - and we've been giving sneak peeks and Radio Press Kits out to gain feedback.




What has come out as a very constant theme is that Ginny Vee has a sound that is reminiscent of the early work of #madonna - yes a big claim but it's the critics that are telling us. And really - that is not a bad role model for vocals??

But don't be fooled this is not a copy of "Madonna" - it's a new sound, new vocals that have hints of one of the greatest pop stars ever. 

So as the "music brand" comes to life - the team has been recruiting image consultants, photographers and image experts. A huge part of the brand is in the image of Ginny Vee. But what is clear - she has a natural beauty and without doubt the #pictures that get the most comments and votes on #facebook (www.facebook.com/ginnyveeofficial) are Ginny's #selfies. (We've got a ton of requests of what camera Ginny is using for the latest #selfies - and we can say that we use exclusively #APPLE and the #iPhone 5s is used in the latest images).


To celebrate the success of the #selfies we have added a cool new feature to the #official Ginny Vee website (www.ginnyvee.com). It's what we call the #selfie page - a page where you can find #selfies by Ginny and by many of her #fans that have been sending us their #selfies. If you want your #selfie on the page - then simply mail one to info@ginnyvee.com 

For Ginny one of the most important things is #fan interaction - and Ginny and the team have been working hard to make sure we have regular updates on #facebook, #twitter and #instagram and #+google - our first four main social media pages for Ginny. And already she has over 40K followers across the various social networks. Ginny is first and foremost a #socialnetwork user - and you can interact with her on any of these channels - just look for @ginnyveemusic on any of the social media networks or directly from #google

It has been a huge amount of work - and well - it's only just started. The aim is to get the #fans incredible content in the form of exclusive #backstage, #interviews, #photos and ultimately amazing #music and #pophits. 
Already Ginny has some #videoclips online on #youtube but we are working hard on lots more - with some exclusive #backstage clips and #vlogs to come very soon. Stay with us as the #number1 priority is the #music and we are working on that night and day - getting all the other stuff as we can.

But we still need your help - and any of you that can help spread the word on any social media networks will be so helpful. This project was born as an innovative social experiment #astarmadebyyou and we still believe that #socialmedia will be the key driver for Ginny Vee and the "Ginny Vee project" - and that means we need your #help

Next week we will have some key updates from the #recordingstudio 

Keep watching.

Few Updates

Been an incredibly hectic week with the adjustment of "Heaven n Back" at the studio. Roberto Cola the musician has done an amazing Job and it is sounding amazing.

In the meantime we have been developing more singles for the EP and the Album, and one of them has jumped out as the possible next single -- can't say anymore but we think people are gonna be dancing out of their seats when they hear it. Deep 80's melodies, up to date pop sound with a rocking dance rhythm that is just mind bendingly funky.

We have a new guitarist that has joined the team and WOW -- more details to follow very soon.

It's a small update as Ginny is running (as we type) to the Studio to lay down a first vocal track of this amazing new song. Then we have a dinner meeting with the producer and -- it's all go!!!
