In order to support the launch of their new album which is due for release on the 10th October a brand new Oasis portal has been developed.
The site contains a host of band related content including news, merchandise, competitions and the full Oasis catalogue available for digital download.
Working in partnership with Trinity Street, dx3 is delivering the digital element of the store providing both pre-order and download functionality within the site.
Iris, the integrated marketing agency, has signed a deal with dx3 for the provision of major label music content to support its Summer music promotion with Sony Ericsson in Ireland.
The campaign, in conjunction with the Irish operator Meteor, is tied in to the surf festival Cois Farraige taking place in September this year. Music from artists playing at this year's and last year's festival will be preloaded on to memory cards and sold with the latest w380i handset. The handset box will be Cois Farraige branded and feature information about the music available on the memory cards itself.
dx3 worked with its partner EMI in order to clear tracks from the likes of Supergrass, Roisin Murphy, Badly Drawn Boy and Tom Baxter amongst others. In total, 10 tracks will be available on each of the memory cards.
This deal once again demonstrates the value that dx3 can bring to agencies, brands and retailers who want to use music as part of marketing or sales based promotions.
dx3 is pleased to announce the launch of a direct to consumer mobile promotion to support the UK tour of the EMI signed band, Alphabeat.
To give fans the chance to pre-order an MP3 copy of the single '10000 Nights', they will be able to text in to a shortcode to receive a download link for the track on the day of release. In addition to this fans can also download a free Alphabeat wallpaper once they have registered.
The offer is being promoted at Alphabeat gig venues as well as in various online environments.
Over the past 3 months dx3 has enhanced its direct to consumer mobile offering to support a variety of different artist and label related promotions. At a time when labels are experimenting with new ways of engaging with fans, dx3 is providing a reliable set of tools to support campaign delivery.
EMI and dx3 are currently working on a number of other project to be announced in the coming weeks.
As part of a broader advertising and marketing campaign, Mindshare, Eircom and dx3 have partnered to launch a music redemption site to allow Sure customers to download a free music track when they visit the Eircom site.
The offering asks customers to enter their email address and some additional information in order to access music from a selection of artists including Estelle, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Flo-Rida and James Blunt. Customers are then emailed a unique voucher code which allows them to redeem their free track within 3 months. Mindshare approached Eircom to provide the service due to its highly popular Irish portal, which already delivers paid for music downloads as part of its proposition.
dx3, the service provider that supports Eircom’s music offer within the portal, was responsible for implementing the redemption technology as well as clearing the rights with Warner Music. The site is currently being promoted across a number of other online portals in Ireland including Bebo, MTV and Disney. The broader campaign is also promoting the Sure Girl product across TV and print.
Daryn Wober, Director at dx3, said, “We are pleased to be working with Mindshare and eircom to deliver free music to their customers. Through this deal we have demonstrated our ability to integrate our technology and music expertise in to a high profile branded campaign.” DX3 has enhanced its technology platform in recent months in order to focus on the provision of digital music redemption sites on behalf of brands, agencies, publishers and retailers.
