Welcome to Realnice

Realnice is brought to you by a group of friends who want to share their work without the hassle of traditional distribution channels - and we want you to join us.

We hope to nurture an environment of creativity and talent, providing a springboard for new musicians, writers, filmmakers and artists to develop their careers, while also becoming an essential platform for established ones.

Realnice is all about joining in - and not just for the writers, musicians, filmmakers and artists showcasing their work. As a visitor to the site you will be encouraged to participate in the Realnice community by reviewing, rating and discussing content. You will be able to share your views, both positive and negative, on any track, picture, album, story, film or artist.

We will encourage you to collaborate with other Realnice members with easy and simple options to make your work available to others to adapt, sample, remix or use, on the condition that it remains within the community.

There is an initial filtering process to maintain a level of quality and production values. Once on board, you will be free to post works of your choosing.

You will be given a dedicated online space and will be free to express yourself with almost complete control over how you display your work and how you share it.

Visitors will be able to navigate easily through Realnice's content and follow our recommendations to find interesting work. Our community will be designed around making the process of searching for content as fun and simple as possible.

There will be lots to buy in the Realnice store, including CD's, books, DVD's, prints, original artwork and customisable merchandise. We will be able to return much of the sale proceeds to artists, thanks to our low overheads.

Where works have been originally created in a non-digital format, we will provide information to help you with the process of capturing and transferring digitally, so that your work will look/sound as good as possible online.
