About Chaotic Riffs Magazine
So, what exactly is Chaotic Riffs Magazine? In brief, it is an online metal video magazine that is owned and run by Vortexual Dreams Production, Inc., showcasing both well-known and emerging local bands. The hard work of LeithalX and JROCK Houston has driven the printed version of the magazine for over five years, and it has now transformed into an audio-focused publication that includes interviews.
Established in 2006, this online media distribution magazine was created as an alternative platform for new bands to promote themselves, distinct from traditional music magazines. We have since broadened our offerings to include audio and video interviews with band members, allowing listeners to experience the interviews directly from the artists without missing any details that might be lost in transcription. Bands are encouraged to share information about upcoming events, exclusive interviews, music video clips, tour dates, and various promotional opportunities at no cost, as well as through paid features on our website. The only request we have is that bands link back to us from their websites and help spread the word about Chaotic Riffs Magazine. That’s all there is to it! If you are interested in our paid inclusion options, please use our Contact Us page.
Chaotic Riffs Magazine aims to deliver a distinctive music information experience for both readers and listeners of our online magazine format. One of the standout aspects of our magazine is that it is completely FREE. When we say free, we truly mean it. The content is available for listening in an audio format, delivered through a video format that can be easily shared with friends and family by simply sending them the link. You might be wondering how this is feasible, and the answer is quite straightforward: it is made possible through the support of advertisers, sponsors, donations, and revenue generated on the YouTube platform.
Who can you expect to see featured in our video magazine? While popular mainstream bands signed to major labels often make appearances on our website, our primary aim is to highlight local and upcoming talent from around the globe. Don’t be misled by the name Chaotic Riffs Magazine into thinking it is solely focused on heavy metal, death metal, and thrash; we embrace all music genres and actively encourage diversity in music choices. Our main objective is to provide a free and effective platform for local bands to promote themselves and gain exposure through our video magazine, helping to spread the word about their music.
