Motivational Songs.com gets powered by Acoustic Fuel

Motivational songs gets a new home on the web thanks to the folks at Acousticfuel.com, a number one source for positive music. Their new site is a dedicated list of songs considered to be motivating, inspiring, and uplifting.  It's purpose is to serve as a resource for people looking for some extra motivation or encouragement.

Motivational-Songs.com features motivational songs for everyone and from all genres.  While there are a few smaller personal lists previously published on the web, no other list promises to be so extensive to include such a wide variety of artists including Mary J. Blige, Josh Groban, and Frank Sinatra.  Not to mention up and coming artist such as Theresa Walker, Darius Lux, Very Unique Existence, and Eliot Popkin to name a few.  Visitors to the site will also find over 20 categories including: motivational songs for women, motivational songs for goal-setting, motivational songs for entrepreneurs, and so much more...

 

"What's motivational to one person may not be to another.  That's why we decided to build the web's largest list of motivational songs to cater to everyone's unique tastes, moods, and circumstances," explains the co-founder of Acoustic Fuel Jennifer Washington.  "The idea is that if something as simple as a song can have such an impact on your mind, body, and mood, then why not listen to motivational songs that are designed to help you take control, move mountains, and change the world," she continued.

 

About AcousticFuel.com

Starting off as an internet radio station in 2003, AcousticFuel.com played positive music by artists from all over the world and became known as a pioneer in the world of positive music, and a champion for its development into the "not so" mainstream. The AF Co-op Project soon followed to represent the independent artists and bands who were part of the movement, and the AF To-Go Download Store was built to provide the world the opportunity to enjoy it.

 

Although the motivational song list created by the founders was intended for members of the "self-help" or "health and wellness" communities, the founders believe that anyone listening to motivational songs will find it easier to "rev up their engines" and "get going" for the day.  This is because lyrics dealing with positive affirmations of self, and the ability to control events, can really influence how one feels about themselves and the world surrounding. So, they suggest that listeners avoid songs dealing with negative topics, such as lost love and despair.

Additionally, there is a close relationship between motivational music and what is known as "positive" music, which is an eclectic blend of music from mainstream and independent musicians.  It also tends to present messages of the goodness and potential within everyone. Furthermore, positive music celebrates and embraces life exploring the intricate and powerful relationship between the creative process and health and healing.

AcousticFuel.com Partners with Positive Artists to Create New Digital Label

Los Angeles, CA. – With CD sales down 20% and digital sales on the rise, the offices at AcousticFuel.com’s new “digital” label, To-Go, are busy filling orders, acquiring new music and searching for new artists.  With a virtual network of employees, no warehouses, and no manufacturing component, digital labels have an advantage over the big record companies who are struggling to stay afloat.  By focusing in on untapped markets such as music therapy, these start-ups can prosper.

“There is a lot of powerful music out there and definitely a market for it.  It’s not all about entertainment anymore.  Listening to certain types of music is definitely therapeutic, much like doing yoga, eating well, or even taking medicine.  It can actually make you feel better with no harmful side effects,” says creator and co-founder Jennifer Washington.Furthermore, the Positive Music Association states that “Positive music is not only for entertainment, but a means of creating positive change in the world. People drawn to it are interested in subjects like personal development, empowerment, social transformation, peace, and more.”  It is also considered to be a growing division of the Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability market, as well as in the Environmental and New Thought movements.AcousticFuel.com plans to release 12 titles next year including their first title The Wonder Women Mixtape due out early 2008.  Additional titles (Follow Your Dreams, Creative Cookout, and Breakfast of Champions) are also scheduled to be released and will feature well known independent singer/songwriters of today such as Faith Rivera, Darius Lux, and Eliot Popkin.“Our strategy is in forming partnerships.  The artists and their music are the lifeblood of the company.  We are merely the vehicle.  By creating equitable deals, we can create an enterprise that serves the needs of a greater common good,” says creator and co-founder Hartford Matthews.Most recently the AF Co-Op Project was formed to improve the marketability, availability, and awareness of these talented artists. By banding together, artists leverage greater bargaining power with buyers.  They can also combine resources to more effectively market and brand their products, ultimately improving their incomes.
