Concur. I had been trying to ping Decoy about the Montreaux set. Surely there must be some way to get that out to us fans???

Extensions is just being released and now you are hinting about the next album. Too many good news at once, lol

BTW, I'd love a live album or DVD in the way of those old Montreux recordings. They are awesome even in that shabby VHS quality. Wishful thinking?

Peace & Love

2008-09-22T17:28:57.405+01:00

There is truth to "must love oneself before you love someone else" but there is a difference between self-confidence and braggadocio. One who makes repetitive and insistent statements about themselves begs the question "Are you really self-confident?".
I strive to maintain my self-confidence without letting people know but I, like many other struggling artists/musicians, find myself lost in the cavalcade of numerous other artists and musicians. In the age of Picasso, Rilke, Satie, and Joplin, music as a profession was not as widely respected or rewarded as it can be today--this is why you see far fewer aspirations met. At least financially.
Interesting, this leads to an army of unknown, unheard musicians who will possibly never be heralded by anyone outside of their group of friends and possibly a relative who wishes to bolster their legacy.

Looking back at the Motown days of America, New Orleans and Philadelphia soul were widely overlooking in terms of distribution but where would a DJ Shadow/Cut Chemist 7" set be without Eddie Bo?

Interesting post, it's something that has been on my mind quite frequently.

And what about the poor fans?The ones who can´t afford to buy special sets, travel many miles to see you sing and buy T-shirts,posters and mugs?They are not true?That makes me sad,because I´m one of them......I love your music and the message it brings. Thank you.

2008-04-28T09:05:58.333+01:00

Hey - nice to see my e-book mentioned in the comments. I write New Music Strategies and run a website called Music Think Tank.

I wonder if there's a way I can be helpful here.

I'm a bit of a broken beat fan, I'm an online music consultant - working with Brownswood at the moment, actually - and I even have my own little experiment in retail at LiquidCrunch.

I'd be happy to have a chat and do a bit of a brainstorm if you guys are up for it. I'm based in Birmingham, but I get down to London fairly regularly.

No charge - call it a 'thanks for the music'. You guys have paid me enough already.

If you want a chat, give me a shout. Contact details at New Music Strategies.

2008-04-16T22:28:44.051+01:00

i go to the gigs and buy the music and am proud to be a fan!

it's for life, there's something special about following an artist or band through their career, and good memories!

2008-04-10T18:47:52.667+01:00

i am a fan ,
i think the mentality of music makers is now to re group and go as in house as possible like mad mikes crew have always done.
i just hope the technology does not kill the music , who knows what the future holds ?
we are all the future so its our choices that will move forward lets hope a brother/sister can make a dollar while doing what they love so they can afford to eat.
losing the real deal music would be to sad to imagine.
peace from the east.

Well, I am also a big fan and your music certainly influences ours... and I follow all the music bizz stuff and read the 1,000 fans blog post before. I was tossing around some ideas to promote my band, I hope you won't pick mine, because you already make the best music ;-)

See you!

(O yea, I talked to you last year in Bruges, well, actually, my girlfriend talked to MC MG, they are the ones that are good at talking... I am still looking forward to a show where you actually play live!!!)
