BAND SPOTLIGHT: Radio Pirate DJ top unsigned band


Today this article came out in the Detroit Free Press about Radio Pirate DJ. Back in October I attended my first Radio Pirate DJ show they were quite impressive at the time.

The article mentions Plexus Online in a few places. This is my favorite cut from it. Version control is easier in a SaaS setup. Plexus, for example, has only one version of its software on a single infrastructure. “We don’t have to cast about through a thousand different client-server configurations before shipping a patch with new features. Instead, we roll out new features every day."
