Women’s t-shirts now available!
We’re pleased to announce that as of today, after lots of testing we can offer womens t-shirts on dizzyjam.com. This means we’re one significant step closer to moving out of beta and into… er, whatever comes after beta.
If you’re an existing shop owner, you’ll have to log in and create new women’s t-shirts. We realise this is a bit of extra work for you, but we didn’t want to automatically assume that you would want women’s t-shirts available, and what colours you’d want them in. It’s your shop, and we try to stay out of the way as much as we can and let you choose the colour combinations you want.
We’re already working on ways to cut down on the time needed to create your t-shirts, including having an “image bank” of your designs so you don’t have to upload a fresh image each time. If you’ve got any suggestions, leave us a comment.
Spotify for Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung phones
Those Spotify fans among us will be very chuffed to hear that Spotify on the move is no longer just the preserve of iPhone owners. From today it’s available on a whole raft of other handsets.
Check this out to find out if your handset is supported.
We’re currently testing it on Neil’s Nokia N97 mini. Works a treat!
We’re updating our genre list!
We need your help!
What genres do you think we DEFINITELY need? It’s difficult striking a balance between making sure everyone’s catered for, and including every tiny sub-sub-sub-genre like “Deep-chicago-post-alt-folk-fidget-house”. Or something. So, here’s our far from perfect current list. What should we include. What have we missed? What should be ditched?

Thriller, 8-bit stylee…
This is fantastic. And kind of speaks for itself. Imagine Jacko’s Thriller made on a ZX Spectrum….
A few uesful music industry links for you. Here’s Buzzsonic’s Twitter and his website. Just a constant stream of links to really brilliant (and constantly relevant) industry links. And there’s a very interesting new magazine called Outliered. And here’s their Twitter, too. Definitely worth checking out.
