I’ve done a lot of music-related video things solely with people that live around here that I only know from Tumblr. It’s totally just for fun and excitement and has even been written about by Soundcloud so I wanted to separate this stuff and give it a name as well as “rebranding” other things I’ve been doing so here is Glowing Rectangles, a collaborative umbrella where we do videos for the music industry.

• I think The Just a Minute Project is dead but we may do them as part of Glowing Rectangles
• We are willing to come out of the glorious depths of buzzband indie and going to try to cover more diverse artists
• YouTube cannot be beaten for traffic and discovery. We will be using YouTube for the most part
• The username “glowingrectangles” on Tumblr seems to be used on an inactive account so any advice on getting that URL would be grand. We don’t want to live anywhere other than Tumblr
• We will be including live performances amongst our videos but this is only part of our jigsaw. Live sessions are being done very well by other local people like the brilliant Anthologies so that’s where you can watch that
• Help us if you like even if we’ve never met. That’s sort of the point. All you have to be is interested, local, not high-maintenance and fun
