As of about 4:00 a.m. o’clock this morning — LA time — Scot got the music player option hooked up for all 900+ of the bands listed on JamBrain.

Band administrators simply go to the Edit function on their band’s profile page and follow the simple directions. Sounds simple, right? (Is there an echo in here?)

The service we’re using is Soundcloud.com. It’s free, and the sound quality is terrific. If you already have music there, all you have to do is plug your access code into the appropriate line on your edit page, and Bingo! There it is.

One big advantage to Soundcloud.com is that it’s separate, but connected, so you don’t have all that weight to wait to download when you go to the page, and you still have all the same play functions. There is room for four songs, and they can be changed monthly.

The irony is so delicious: a website (JamBrain) on live, local music stuffed full of recorded music. Wonderful.
