cubed_music is now Live and On the Air
Thanks for the feedback on the request everyone!
I'm officially throwing open the doors for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
cubed_music, aka, Music from the Cube.
Please be sure that you read the FAQ before you sign up.
Everyone who joins will have posting access so they can upload their own CD reviews. Thus far, I've already approved two members![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
idhren24 and h4nselel who should be able to see the locked posts as well as post their own reviews.
There's already a post there (by moi) that covers Randy Newman and the Squirrel Nut Zippers. You know you're in if you can see the post.
Please note: I've set the security settings to FRIENDS ONLY, which means that the posts are automatically locked down. I don't know if watching the community alone will allow you to see the posts or comment. You may have to join in order to see the contents of the journal.
So...I guess that's it.cubed_music is officially taking off as of 8 p.m. EST.
ETA: Before I forget,cubed_music has a LastFM community. In essence, the communities over on LastFM allow all the members to "pool" their playlist to create a radio station.
As of 9:45 p.m. EST, thecubed_music radio station went live (thanks sunfell for the assist in joining!). If more than 15 people join, the community will get its own music charts.
Membership on the LastFM community is open all LastFM members.
The community radio station is public, which means that anyone (both members and non-members of LastFM) can tune in for a listen.

Re: ::cheer::
If it includes a link to buy the CD (assuming it's not out of print), a link to download at least two sample tunes, and the name of the artist in the header, and a brief something about whether you think the CD is good or bad (really, just a short paragraph is all you need) you're pretty much good to go.
A lot of the FAQ was crafted after reading a bazillion other FAQs from other music-sharing communities on LJ. The commenting thing is pretty much standard for all of them, as is the "play nice" warnings and the links to filesharing sites.
*fingers crossed* Here's hoping I won't have to mod too much.
Oh, and the companion radio station over on LastFM just went live. (YAY!) Here's the link: http://www.last.fm/group/cubed_music
Yay!
