ReverbNation, the leading marketing platform for more than 500,000 artists, labels, managers and venues has announced the launch of a new music discovery program called Playlist 7 sponsored by Microsoft Windows.

The program will showcase emerging artists from the rock, pop, alternative, hip-hop, latin, jazz, and electronica/dance genres. Music fans from around the world will choose 7 artists each week to appear in 'Playlist 7' and receive additional promotion and cash compensation.

"The fans get free music from up and coming artists every week, plus they get to decide which Artists make it to the top of Playlist 7," said Lou Plaia, vice president of Artist Relations at ReverbNation. "The artists get exposure and cash compensation every step of the way. Everybody wins with Playlist 7."

How it works: During each week of the program, 50 songs from emerging Artists will be made available for free download at http://www.reverbnation.com/playlist7. Music fans will be able to download 7 free songs of their choice from the pool of fifty. Each download will act as a 'vote' for the Artist. The 7 Artists who receive the most downloads during each week will receive an additional cash prize and will have their song featured and promoted the following week inside of 'Playlist 7'.

"Windows' generous sponsorship of this program means that more emerging Artists will be heard as well as compensated for their art," said Jed Carlson, co-founder and chief operating officer of ReverbNation.com. "It's a great way to bring bands and brands together for mutual benefit."
