Bacardi Express headliners Groove Armada is giving Aussie music fans exclusive access to their brand new EP before the rest of the world.
The new songs are now available through the B-LIVE Share application found at the official Bacardi website. This revolutionary new site rewards music fans who share the Groove Armada tracks through the site and with their online communities. The more songs you share, the more EP tracks you can access. Additionally, people using the service have the chance to win a VIP experience with the band onboard the Bacardi Express.
It’s exciting to see a model which allows fans to share music legally, ensuring the artists, promoter, and publisher are all compensated.
“Sharing music has always gone on. It’s giving music away that’s the problem. We wanted to come up with a 21st century version of what we used to do with cassette tapes. When you give music away for free it’s disposable. When you share it, it’s done with love,” Andy Cato of Groove Armada said in a statement.
The EP also has a local connection, with Australian electronic duo Van She Tech remixing the song “Drop the Tough.”
If you’re over 18 you can access the EP through the B-LIVE Share website until March 1, when it will be available for commercial digital release.
