Thanks.  Don't get me wrong, I really like the work I post, I just haven't been able to sell it. About 1% of what I sell I actually really like.

I'm contemplating a SoundCloud Pro account.

Thanks for listening and commenting Fritz.

I checked out your page as well. Hardly failures. Really nice, deft arrangements and orchestrations.

I'm glad to hear you endorse SoundCloud. I'm looking forward to exploring it much more thoroughly.

Rick

SoundCloud is a wonderful forum for sure.  I like your open pastoral feel on O'Carolan's Dram.

I also have a SoundCloud page.  Mostly failures live on my page I'm afraid,

Since I've seen a few others indulge in some similar self-promotion, I'm going to take this opportunity to do the same.

I just opened a Soundcloud account under my fake band name The Ashen Actuaries of Asgard and have uploaded some tunes. Many of them have tron sounds (which are tagged) as well as those of some other classic keys (D6 clavinet, Fender Rhodes, Moog).

However, in the interest of full disclosure, I have to admit that my Mk. VI has been out of commission for several months due to a bum pre-amp. So most of what you hear is Mellotron Archive tape samples played through a Nord Electro 3. Not ideal, I know, but desperate times require certain accommodations. Hopefully the real thing will be back in action shortly.

If you feel like it, feel free to give a listen.


Thanks.
