Today is the day.

The new Music2Deal is now live.

What started many years ago with a simple idea continued step by step and has now reached a completely new level.

The goal was never to build just another social network.

The idea was always to create a place where music professionals can stay informed about what their contacts are doing, offering or looking for.

Because in the music business, opportunities are often missed not because people are disconnected — but because they are not informed.

The new version of Music2Deal is cleaner, faster, easier to use and much more focused on what really matters:
music opportunities and meaningful business connections.

At the same time, we know that no platform is ever perfect from day one. Like every larger system, Music2Deal will continue to evolve step by step based on feedback, ideas and real user experience.

After all these years, I’m really excited to finally share this new chapter with you.

I would love to hear your feedback and thoughts.

Welcome to the new Music2Deal.

The new Music2Deal is finally going live.

After many years of development, redesigns, ups and downs, late nights and endless discussions, it is finally happening.

To be honest:
Music2Deal was not always as easy and intuitive as I wanted it to be. Building a platform for very different music business people around the world became much more complex than I expected years ago.

At the same time, the vision itself never really changed.

The idea was always:

Get in contact.
Stay in contact about music opportunities.

Over the years, many programmers, designers, representatives and members helped shape Music2Deal into what it is today.

When I now look back at old screenshots, flyers and emails, I realize again how long this journey really has been.

And still, I feel that the real journey is only starting now.

With the new version, the goal was not simply to redesign Music2Deal visually. The goal was to make it cleaner, more focused and easier to use — while staying true to the original idea behind it.

I really hope the new Music2Deal finally comes much closer to the vision I had in mind for many years.

See you on May 18.

This post is part of the story behind the new Music2Deal.

This early layout from 2010 reminds me how much work went into Music2Deal behind the scenes.

Many people only see the front end of a platform. They see pages, buttons, colors and profiles. But behind that there are so many thoughts, changes, setbacks and compromises.

Music2Deal was never planned as just a simple contact database.

The idea was to build a community and marketplace in one place — with members who can offer or want artists, songs, licensing, vocalists, business contacts and other music-related opportunities.

That is much more complex than it may look from outside.

And the challenge was not only technical. The challenge was also to create a tool that makes sense for very different people in the music business with very different needs.

If I look back honestly, I would say the effort was always strong, but the usability was not always where I wanted it to be.

That is one important reason why this next update means a lot to me.
