I believe you're doing fine as you do now. No need to - constantly - upload your best work. But - obviously - I'm glad to hear that this is your goal nonetheless.

I'm glad you got in contact with KosmikRay. I'm thrilled with the Winter duology you uploaded today. As far as I'm concerned you managed to upload an impressive oeuvre (or am I carrying away). When one takes time to listen carefully, ones mind can be easily taken away to all kinds of places.

Your music impressed me a lot. It sounds thoughtful and sincere. But please think about the relationship you want to have with the T61 audience. Deleting comments was unnecessary imho.

Word is that KosmikRay shares a list of tips & hints with new artists. Maybe you can tunebox him a private message and ask him.

Like the music - but you keep deleting tracks. That can encourage listeners not to bump you because they don't want to lose their points. If they don't bump you, you don't gain levels and can't upload more music. And people are less likely to pass on music to other listeners if they think it might get deleted. It's a bit of a vicious circle.

I'll pass on your stuff to other listeners I know, and see if we get things moving a bit........

You guys are great and I love all the songs you've put up, but try not to remove songs you already have up unless you really have to. Users lose both the points they put into it and those that they may have gotten back.

As a T61 gamer I say: not funny. But as a music lover I say: Thanks, I appreciate that very much.
