Drones, Dreams, & lots of other stuff
So in the ten second favor category, vote for the Brian John Mitchell 4.5 hour drone or the Small Life Form 45 minute drone nominated as singles on Top Choons. It’ll be interesting to see if they really play …

Web Traffic, 1000 True Fans, Robot, Top Choons, Social Media, Ustream

my theory is that with kind of blanket canvasing of the interwebs for interest you wind up hitting more people who wouldn’t be interested in what you do as opposed to targetting specific areas. don’t ask how you find those specific areas.
I’m finding all the music people are excited about is typically soundalike of boring music i hated growing up . For example without naming names, the band that got voted in boston’s equivalent of the independent as best band from MA…sounds exactly like all of those horrible bands in the 90′s that made me want to burn the clubs down. aka pixies wannabes with annoying whiny vocals. How is Silber gonna convince people that love that music to buy their droney, dark, moody records?

Yeah, I mean, that’s part of why I’m trying to expand the Silber Empire a bit. People stumble across the comics or the review blogs or QRD & then they discover the music. Or maybe it’ll just be those other projects generate enough revenue on their own to subsidize the label rather than causing an interest spike in the music. I don’t know. We’ll see what happens. I’m feeling relatively hopeful at the moment, though I can’t really tell you a reason why.

QRD, Pointless Forest, Northern Valentine
So I updated the back issues of QRD to take away the affiliate links & replace them. Only one person went in for the appearance on 570 content pages for $50, but I’m guess I’m happy with the $50 because …

Pointless Forrest mean that the Forest is pointless or that there’s just a whole crapload of pointlessness going on?
