Reality Check: RAZZ Mixer
RAZZ, Inc. recently introduced the RAZZ Mixer. It enables people to create personalized audio recordings to post on web pages. This is a Flash-based application consisting of a voice recorder, music uploader, and special effects sound board with hundreds of pre-recorded sounds.
Users “mix” recordings for posting onto social-networking sites and blogs. These recordings serve the purpose of welcoming people to a profile page as well as to “RAZZ” friends by posting a recording in comment fields.
The RAZZ mixer is here here. There are many samples that are ready for posting here. People can also listen to a mix by clicking on a direct link; for example, here. Finally, this is what the RAZZ player looks like; click on “PLAY” to hear how a DJ can promote a musical event. Notice the three key elements of a RAZZ mix: music clips, special effects, and the DJ’s voice.
Garage is an investor, and I am on the board of directors of RAZZ.



"Think big.... find a way to get to $100 million in sales. If you can’t imagine this level of sales without being high on crack, then you should face the facts: your company probably isn’t a “VC deal.”

Investing in Razz vs a record label with a great trademarked name / quality rock / blues / funk/ dance / acoustic music that plans (with capital) to build a film division to cross-pollinate artists in music / film / clothing?
U high on crack? Must be the grass in Maui.

Actually, I'm in London right now. If I'm high on crack, what does that say about you: Someone who bothers to read the writing of someone on crack?

so... uh... how are they going to make money with this?
Also, this is something that a decent actionscripter could write in a week or so.

There's a subliminal track that tells people to buy my book. Then RAZZ and I split the Amazon affiliate fees. :-)
Next Friday, please show me where I can mix a sound clip using your copy. :-)
Thanks,
