Get a Record Deal From Your iPhone? applegirl002 Did.

Saturday, June 12th, 2010

How do you use your phone? Do you text, browse the web, find cool apps to play with, or just use it to talk on the phone? Kim Yeo-hee, better known as applegirl002 on YouTube, has used hers to get a record deal. Just three months ago she started posting videos of her singing on YouTube. Sounds like thousands of other people, except she has something that makes her quite unique; she uses her iPhone to create the music. According to a post on Wall Street Journal blog,


Music producers from China and England raced with those from South Korea to sign her up. She chose a Seoul-based producer, Dreamhigh-Ent, in April, and started recording her own songs. Now production is under way on her first album and professionally made videos. “Hajima (Don’t Fall in Love)” is slated for release later this month.


What a way to adapt all this new technology to the very old art of writing music. I wonder how many people will try their hand at this now. Take a look at her Lady Gaga video entitled “Poker Face” and see what you think. She starts off with an explanation of the apps she is using; the song starts around 1:30. If anyone tries this themselves, I’d love to see it! Send your videos to Geoffrey@GeoffreyShilling.com.
