These days I tend to find good new music via films. The latest is this thoughtful ballad...
Mimicking Birds - Bloodlines
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Oll2BY3bb4
...so good new music is out there... it's just wayyy more difficult to find because it seems to be lost out there on the web rather than bubbling away in an underground scene somewhere |

Interesting that you are pushing new music.
On a platform that is notorious for paying artistes very little, if anything.
Remember folks, home taping killed music.

 It's only because I know Fab will allow links to YT. If people like what they hear they should of course go out and buy it to support the artists who are making it
At least I am trying to give new music a chance. At least give me that. Seems like most forumites are still stuck back in the 70's. |

I'm fine, just joshing. Personally i think of it as a huge advert/promo thing.
Same as when someone lent me 2 albums and i subsequently bought 17 of that artiste.
Just a damn shame the Record Companies don't think of it that way.
What's also interesting though is how often you hear of the youth, let's say 17-21 group, oooh i heard my mum's collection of Beatles/Kinks/Stones records and aren't they brilliant.
Tbf YT is excellent for keeping alive music of the 60's/70's that the record companies are no longer interested in selling, including the artistes material that never made the main spotlight.

To be honest I make music and published an album a couple of years back. Now I'm working on some new songs I've decided to put on YouTube in an early raw state as a way of drumming up interest. It's basically how music "works" now, not that it really works, you release some music for free to get people interested and then you try to sell them either the rest or gigs or something. It works if you don't put too much time into the free stuff. Plus my album made me almost £0 so at this point I might aswell have given it away for free anyway lol
Also I'm a flac junky so I tend to forget that for some people YT is enough... for me it isn't... I always have to go off and buy the real thing so I can hear how it actually sounds... not the tinny mp3 crap you get on YT |
