ItalianoWhen licensing goes Kliq…
We couldn’t be happier for Professor Kliq. Not only is he a great artist (a talented young electronic music producer from Chicago), he’s also starting to make some money through jamendo.
His music is quite popular among professionals looking to license tracks for ads, videos, websites, etc. on Jamendo PRO, and he’s been accumulating quite a few licensing deals in the last few weeks. In fact, he’s currently one of the artists making the most money from Jamendo PRO.
We didn’t even ask him to say something nice about jamendo. Kind words just seem to pour out of him: “The site is fantastic… I keep up to date on my licensings and they come through pretty regularly. I bought myself some new clothes and shoes with my last payment!”
As we say, we couldn’t be happier for him… As for us, it’s having great music by artists such as Professor Kliq that’s making Jamendo PRO a success; so we’re pretty happy too!

Excellent news for Prof Kliq, jamendo, and indie artists. Long may this kind of great news reign in these times of economic downturn!

I found the Prof via Jamendo and instantly became a huge fan, reviewing Guns’ Blazin and posting a video from his most recent album, “The Scientific Method: Volume II”. His music is packed full of invention, soul and all-round funkiness while his production skills ensure that his sounds jump out of the speakers.
Some people are sceptical about the worth and standard of music published at Jamendo. The Prof’s music proves a great persuader: ask them if they like Fatboy Slim, trip-hop, funk and electronica, point them to Guns Blazin’, then sit back and watch them bust a move. :)
It’s good to know that Professor Kliq, Jamendo and professional concerns are all getting something out of the Creative Commons licence. But if the Prof goes bling, count me out. ;)
