Azuvex.com, a Durban based online social news aggregator platform is proud to announce the launch of its file hosting service for musicians; Tunehost.net. The file hosting service aims to help independent artists track the impact of their releases by offering unparalleled download tracking capabilities plus insight in the form of an analytics report. The service offers artists insight on how their music is being shared online and where their traffic is coming from so as to help them optimize their marketing tactics. .

The founder and CTO of the service, Mpendulo Chiliza said: “African artists have benefited from the arrival of the digital age in music but up until now, they haven’t had a platform that is by them for them that provides strategic insight on how their music is being received online. We built this platform to help the passionate kid at home on his laptop making music hoping that he will get noticed some-day. That day is today.” Nhlanhla Ndwandwe, COO of Tunehost.net said: “Coming from a music background myself, I have to say that this is a wonderful time for up and coming artists in Africa. Insight is king in optimizing your reach. Two years from now, Tunehost will be a staple in every indie artist’s arsenal.”
In celebration of the launch of the service, TuneHost is offering the first 100 artists to upload their material on the site, free insight reports on every release they make on the site for the first 12 months.
