AQA 63336 Greatest Questions Album Search Starts for the Music to the Meaning of Life



AQA (Any Question Answered), the UK based text question and answer service, today announces that it is to create an album based around the greatest questions texted to 63336, and is inviting UK bands to submit tracks. The AQA 63336 album creation is supported by £25,000 prize money, together with promotions on AQA'ss website at www.63336.com and social networking site MySpace.

AQA'ss customers are passionate about music: we get thousands of questions each day about band dates, where lyrics come from, and whether the lead singer is single, commented Paul Cockerton, Marketing Director. Creating the AQA 63336 album allows us to support the independent music scene in the UK whilst providing exclusive content on www.63336.com for new and existing AQA customers.

20 selected bands will each receive £350 for tracks submitted for the album, entitled AQA 63336 Greatest Questions. An independent panel, comprised of music journalists, producers and artists, will then select the 10 best tracks for inclusion on the album with each successful band or artist receiving £1,000. The public will then be invited to vote for their favourite track, with the winner receiving £5,000. These tracks will be available exclusively on AQA'ss website at www.63336.com and sold through iTunes, with 80% of net profits being returned to the artists.

Many bands already use MySpace to host their music and communicate with their fans. Uniquely, we'sll be using their pages on MySpace and other networks to promote the creation, and subsequent sales, of the AQA 63336 album, continued Cockerton. This will drive the band'ss fans to www.63336.com where they can listen to the album, vote for their favourite tracks, and in the process learn about and try AQA for free.

AQA has already signed many bands, and is looking for a further 5 bands to contribute to the AQA 63336 album. Bands already signed up include The Barker Band, The Brent Flood, Dead Dog in Black Bag, Eddyfink, Emmy the Great, Paul Goodwin, Popular Workshop, Sean Eskimo, Species 8472 and Subdued.

Questions already being worked on include 'sHow long is a piece of string's, 'sCan you cry under water's and 'sIf Barbie is so popular why do you have to buy her friends's.

To qualify for applying, a band must be based in the UK; have a MySpace page; must agree to create an original track based on an AQA question, and must agree to the track being available exclusively on www.63336.com.

The deadline for applications is next week, May 11th with tracks having to be submitted by 4th June. To apply and for more details visit www.63336.com/album.htm
