My first album relased! (ambient/space)

mike65

Hi

Some of you have listened to some of my stuff in the past and now you can go mad and download a compete album called "Etoile Nord".

Its priced at just £3.50 which is about a fiver. And thats for 50 mins of music which sounds like a bargin to me If you are interested most tracks can be previewed in the form of an mp3 snippet.



Make me happy and buy something that pays repeated listening as you work at your keyboard.

If you should take the plunge please write me a short review, feedback is always welcome.

Here's the direct link All plastic accepted.

Mike.

If it were free I probably wouldnt even listen to it.

Great strategy to get stuff out there.

tman

enjoyed your past few offerings, and i've got a few quid in my paypal account going unused...

grabbing it now:)

/edit
where be the paypal payment option?

mike65

Dang! Sorry Tman for some reason (which I'll inquire about) downloads are only payable with credit/debit cards.

base2, why post?

I'd say he's being sincere - human psychology being that funny thing that it is, I'd say people would actually be more likely to pay a fiver to listen to something (meaning you're buying something that has been vetted by someone and deemed worthy for sale?) than to download something for free, bearing in mind that any muppet can put up free music these days.

Same reason why people feel safer paying (even a little bit) for a commercial server operating system rather than running linux It's like the fact that it needs to be payed for provides some sort of validation.

Ah! I get you Sico. I took it the wrong way..I think!

Mike, you should really be offering your album free of charge. Via peer 2 peer of direct download from your site. It's the best way to get your music out there. Believe me... people don't like paying for music these days.

mike65

My music has been free to download for years (going back to old MP3.com site era!) but damnit at some point you gotta raise your game.

That's the way of the world now.

tman

god damn it!
and there was me spending €80 on music today, when i could've just downloaded it all for free!

i'm such a muppet

base2

I wouldnt pay more than a euro for the finest album of electronice from a well establshed artist so just letting you know where you stand. I'm also a thieving knacker.

Great attitude lads. :rolleyes:

Y'see if everyone thought that way, we'd all be back in the cave eating berries and bits of goat.

If you consider your music commerciable, then you're just spamming the boards by coming on here.

mike65

I could get shirty with you base2 as you clearly have an attitude problem. If the mod considered this thread spam he'd have acted by now. I've posted links to my music (free music) for a few years now. Its hardly spam to make contact with peeps like Tman who have liked my stuff in the past.

From what ive heard it sounds decent enough but as ive already said i personally no longer buy music anymore;)

sturgo

come to think of it i haven't bought a cd (for myself) in almost a year. and i certainly have no plans to either.
