Much slower than I thought. I know there are avenues for me to expose my music. I just haven't found them yet. Like it's right on the tip of my tongue. Response to this album has been SLOW. A whole lot of folks saying they are excited to hear it, then... NOPE. Sorry folks, unless you are listing on some secret site I haven't heard of before, I have instant stats on most of the sites I have sent people and they aren't listening. I don't blame them. Who has time for that? It really becomes a thing to do, rather than just turning on a radio and getting on with your life.
Holy moly this was something that used to send me to the bottom of depression, but not any more. I'm really happy with what I've done. I still want to share it with anyone that might listen and I become more than enthusiastic when someone does list and actually likes it. The online radio campaign on Jango gave me lots of good feedback, so I know it's not just because my friends and family don't like the music. Setting aside time to go listen to someones music is just not for them.
I'll keep pushing it, and see where it goes. The prospects are still bright to me, and for the response I've already gotten I've already won. The music business is truly a lottery that anyone would be insane to play because the odds are insane, but you can't win if you don't play.
