One of the unsigned bands who were played on BBC Radio 1 as part of the launch of their website OneMusic has been signed by Virgin label Radiate. MASS’s single ‘Hey gravity’ will be released at the end of the month. Jo Whiley, who played the single on Radio 1, told reporters: "OneMusic day and the website gave me the chance to play tunes by unsigned acts and M.A.S.S really stood out. It's cool that they've got a record coming out and hopefully they'll carry on making great music. That's what the day and the site was all about, raising awareness about all the talent that's out there and opening up the music business." The bands lead singer Justine added: "OneMusic was a great way of getting our music out there to as many people as possible in one day. It's a credible site and so credible bands used it and it worked for us." OneMusic is an information site designed to help wannabe bands.
