NEW SITE INFO
As our longtime readers certainly noticed, Indie IN-TUNE skipped a month for the first time since we debuted in January of 2004; there was no Mid-September 2007 Issue. Instead, we extended the Mid-August issue to run through Mid-October. We did this so we could rip the site apart and do a total overhaul and redesign of the site.
It is our goal, as we continue to grow, to answer the requests and suggestions of our readers to make a more accessible site that is more interactive, easier to navigate and has more features. The limitations of our old site prohibited us from doing this. So, although we missed a month, it was not in vain! Behind the scenes work continued and we have now launched our all new site.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION:
We ask for your continued patience as for the next couple of issues we will still be under construction and making some additional changes and improvements – tweaking, so to speak. So, this issue may be missing a few of the regular features as we continue to improve them and prepare them to be reinserted back into the publication.
Features that are missing or substantially reduced right now and will return are:
- The Arts
- Adopt-a-Band
- Women in Music
- News
Features that are Gone and Moved or NOT Returning are:
- The Metal Horizon:
Status – GONE; All metal reviews will be found in the Music Area now. We are still covering and reviewing Metal in all its forms, but it won’t have its own feature area.
- Carpe Nocturne:
Status – Moved; Carpe Nocturne grew so swiftly and began expanding so much that it was decided it should spin off and become its own publication. So, Carpe Nocturne is still around, it’s just bigger, better and with its own totally all new site! You can see it each and every month at: www.carpenocturne.com.
Features that may be returning:
- Comics: This feature will have comic strips created by our staff and those sent to us by our readers. Also, Comic Book Reviews, Release Date Information and Interviews with writers and artists.
NEW ISSUE UPDATE SCHEDULE:
The November issue (due out November 15th) will be a smaller and brief issue as we change our release dates beginning with the December issue. Starting with the December issue we will update with an all new issue between the 1st and 4th of the month every month rather than mid-month.
So bear with us! We are growing far faster than we ever thought we would or could! Our worldwide readership continues to grow but our Mission remains the same:
Staying Honest, Positive, Non-Commercial (Though we may sell advertising, we will be picky and choosy too whom and NEVER depend on it so that we loose focus and bend to the corporate world!) and most of all, cover, promote and introduce the talented, hard working and struggling indie artists/musicians/bands of the world to our readers!
We hope you enjoy the new site and PLEASE, by all means, use the comment areas to comment on articles and features! Also, drop us a line letting us know what you think and making and suggestions you may have. WE LISTEN!
