Long Drone
So I got the long drone piece up. Brian John Mitchell – four and a half. It’s free to stream or a dollar to download (probably I’ll raise it to the regular $5 download price in a month). It’s …

Got the art & press release done for the long drone piece. Now I’m just waiting to upload it & such. Even as an MP3 it’s half a gig, so it takes a while to upload.
The new QRD is …

So I’m working on getting the Promute release up on the website. They are going to be following a new pricing model I plan to start using for what has traditionally been our “free release” series. It’s going to be …

I’ve been thinking of ceasing with free downloads altogether, maybe just one song per album. I mean i’m going to make the album anyways out of my drive to make it but my drive to make it has nothing to do with people actually hearing it or being able to own it for free.
While I like to give things away to people that want to hear and old fans….it really does the music a disservice i think for everybody to just offer it for free and it really doesn’t seem to be doing anything in regards to that age old argument of if more people hear it the word spreads and there’ll be more people at your shows and more people buying your album if they got to hear it first. (of course you could argue that if i released better music that would be the case but fuck you if you think that anyways :)) Seems like a load of crap in regards to reality. The people I find that really want to hear it will buy it even for little money. The rest just want it for free and not even if they’re inconvenienced by having to sign a mailing list and for those people i think if they have to stream it, that’s ok by me and if that’s too inconvenient for them…i don’t care if they hear it because obviously they don’t actually like it.
The free way doesn’t seem to benefit me in any way except for back in the day when i’d leave free cd’s laying about a cd shop on occassions. Download cards never seem to invite people to download the music, probably because there are too many steps between that card and the music
I mean eventually it’s going to wind up on some dl site from the east anyways so may as well let them do the work and let me try to convince you to send a dime my way.
Having it on Spotify or Last.fm and at least making the 1cent every 10000 listens is better for me and for them (listeners) as they probably already use the free service and I may be able to buy a cup of coffee in 4 years. Most people I know under the age of 30, if they wanna check out this band they heard about typically go to youtube to find it anyways and not to the band sites.

Things are so screwed up right now for anyone expecting to break even on an album. I don’t know what to think about it, much less do about it.

Behind the Scenes
Getting some behind the scenes work done today. Proofreading for QRD, worked on some questions for the touring musician interview series for QRD, more work done on the cover art for the record with my son, another coat of stain …
4.5 crash, Goddakk, QRD, mini-comics
So I was working on the 4.5 hour drone recording today & my music computer crashed 3.5 hours in. This is the first time my music computer has crashed in 7 years. I know I’m asking it to do somethings …

Had to do a couple little minor edits to QRD today. Adding a photo, fixing a couple typos. Got emails back from most of the participants saying they are spreading the word. So it’s good they are all pleased.

are you saying all the name tip jar downloads have only made you $1.oo over the year?
$4.55 for the year. I’d guess around 10,000 downloads, but I don’t keep too close a track of it because it’s too depressing.
