Studio Wizardry: The Game
 

In this game, you are the manager of a small record label. Every day, I will post a description of a completely fabricated band on this thread. You, as the manager, may choose to audition them and/or sign them, but be quick, for other labels might snatch them up first. Once you have signed a band, you can book them gigs, rent them out studios, buy them equipment, advertise their merchandise and peddle them to fame and fortune! Eventually, you will have the opportunity to "buy out" other companies by buying up their stocks. Eventually, only one will reign supreme as the premier record label in Music. So, who's in?

*I'll post the rules very shortly

I wanna play.


p.s. I lost the *other* game, by the way ;)

damn it i just lost the game...wow i lasted a while on that.

I went 2 years until just recently. Then everything started to make me think of it.

Okay. It's so nice to see the enthusiasm! So, if you want to play, please reply to this post with the name you want your record label to go by.

Also, choose one of the following "classes" to start off with:

1. Privileged trust fund child: Start with extra capital
2. Well-established veteran: Start with a boost in experience (bands are more likely to want to sign with you)
3. Audiophile Prodigy: Start with your own studio and basic audio equipment

String Dance Studios - Audiophile Prodigy

Thanks Conan. You're definitely in the game. I'll wait to post the first band till at least 2 more people have verified that they're playing.

I'll play.

Bukowski Fist Records - Audiophile Prodigy

Band #1: Meiser
 

Meiser
Meiser is a post-hardcore band from Germany. Their music is often described as “politically-charged, metal-influenced crust punk”. Most of their songs are about either the evils of capitalism or a personal struggle with mental illness (the lead singer and lyricist is a bipolar schizophrenic). Their first 3 albums were recorded under the independent anarcho-punk record label “Down with the System Records”, while their forth and fifth albums were both released independently. They are probably the most popular band in their field, although their popularity has never spread past the hardcore punk scenes of Europe and Eastern North America. The band members have been described as “one-of-a-kind”. Says “Down with the System Records”, they are “very unique artists who are very strong willed and opinionated, but they won’t turn on you for anything other than a perfectly legitimate reason”

You may choose to audition or directly sign this band, or any bands that come along in the future.
