2nd January 2009
Downloadable Tunes is only in its fifth year of business and we are already doing really well, thanks to all our wonderful
customers. Without you, we wouldn’t have been able to keep going. We are constantly looking for new advice and feed-
back on our offers and products, also our site and advertisements. We try to suit everyone's needs and offer all the lat-
est tracks and videos available to download. Our monthly newsletter will keep you up to date on everything that is going
on in the music world. With advice, charts, gossip and more.
Your Downloadable Tunes Downloadable Tunes has been in business for almost 5
years now and in this time has built up a huge database of
5 million tracks with music ranging from R & B to classical.
We guarantee we can provide all the tracks you want and
need. We have also recently joined with Paramount pic-
tures and a few other smaller movie companies, this has
enabled us to provide music videos and all the latest block
buster films. These movies are all available on our web-
site, offered at com-
petitive prices, and can
all be downloaded as
long as you are a mem-
ber of D-Tunes.
We first went live in
2004. Since then our
company has grown in size and popularity. This has
helped us to produce not only a top download site, but
also a live tour hosted by us, with all the big name acts
performing, including Rihanna, Kaiser Chiefs, Adele and
Mcfly. We have already had 2 of these and our next one is
due to come up in the summer of 2009 (see page 3 of
newsletter for details). We have also now got a small radio
station, where we announce the charts, latest music and
films, and have interviews with top stars. There are also
phone in competitions you can enter if you wish.

Lily Allen ex-plains ‘drugs’
song
The London singer releases her follow up to Alright, Still in February.
Lily Allen has moved to clarify lyrical content in a song set to appear on her second album.
Everyone's At It is set to feature on her new record, It's Not Me, It's You.
Allen has said the track is not just about illegal drug use and is not seeking to glamorise the issue.
A statement released today [8 January] on behalf of the singer said: "The song itself talks about a
culture of both legally prescribed drugs like anti-depressants and also illegal drug use."
The statement continued: "Lily Allen would like to state unequivocally that she does not condone
illegal drug use."
Furthermore, the release says Lily Allen "has every sympathy with individuals and families whose
lives have been blighted by drugs".
Confusion
Last year Allen told the Observer newspaper she was "not trying to change anything" with the
track. She added: "Drugs are illegal and bad and they ruin people's lives but they're pretty promi-
nent."
Her second record It's Not Me, It's You is released on 2 February.
Following that she'll embark on a UK tour beginning on 14 March in Glasgow.
Kanye West, Jay-Z and Santogold on Notorious BIG soundtrack
The lead song for the soundtrack for the movie about murdered rap-per Notorious BIG was produced by Kanye West and is performed by Jay-Z with Santogold. 'Brooklyn Go Hard’ is the first new song you will hear from 'Notorious: Music From and Inspired By The Original Motion Picture’. The movie traces the short life of Christopher Wallace (aka Notorious BIG) who was gunned down in March 1997. Wallace came from the streets of Brooklyn and became one of Diddy’s biggest stars for the Bad
Boy label.
