    Default fMainstream - Is anyone aware of this company / had any dealings, etc?

    They've seen some of my work on Soundcloud and approached me via email.

    Thanks

    I don't know how sites like that work, but get them to send you the contract and post it up and I'm sure someone will tell you if its a good idea or not.

    Yeah got the same kind of email from them earlier this month. I checked them out and joined. I figured that I've got nothing to lose.

    Shortly after that I received another email saying that they had given me a voucher to redeem to purchase advertising on their sites?

    This is part of the email that I'm referring to..

    "Hello!

    Recently when you submitted your work to fMainstream, you referred five artists that we should be on the lookout for. Thank you! This helps us stay current and fresh with new emerging talent and we couldn't do it without you.

    As a thank you, we'd like to give you a coupon code to "The Audience Store" where you can redeem your credit for a free Social Ad to run on Facebook. Our social ads help artists like you get more exposure and promotion for your work by targeting fans that would be interested in your music."

    So.........
