wow! (two box song)
Really nice (again) - tell me have you compiled a CD yet? If so I'd buy one!
Great harmonies on this - should do it more often i.e on Ocean Blue

Very nice of you to say you would buy our cd. Still striving to get better and not sure we are ready yet as we have not had any indication from A&R that we produce something saleable. We still have a long way to go and have a lot of ideas to record in the future. Thanks very much indeed. Comments like yours give us the determination to continue.

Hi - no problem - I could listen to your music quite easily.
I wouldn't wait for A+R, not here at any rate - I think you're best going as far as you can under your own steam, as Indie Boy seems to favour "live acts" in London anyway. As far as the industry is concerned the least amount of work for the maximum profit seems to ring true - so you need to develop yourselves as much as you can.
Plan.
Put this on a Myspace band page.
add some pics and contact sites for donations.
network like mad.
If you want to put it on Itunes, we will cover the upfront costs via Tunecore
What do you think.

Thanks for your message. It's a great idea and we would love for this song to help in any way. The copyright has been removed so that the song may be used by anyone for the purpose of raising money for charity. We don't have a Myspace page and unfortunately we are not very good with technology. Hence not putting a link on our page to a charity site. Know we should have, but don't have enough knowledge. Would it be possible for you to do it for us? When you say network like mad do you mean to post it to all groups on Vox except songwriters & SMP. Wary of doing this due to spamming that you told us about before. We could e-mail all our neighbours. What do you think? Karlos said about putting a charity CD together which would be a good idea but that would be sometime in the future. Any help with the technology side would be much appreciated.

I have a man who can. I will get him to do a myspace and send you the info.
Theres not a lot of point in networking to vox---too few people.
Cant get Myspace to do it, still trying.

myspace & facebook & happening networks. let me know if you need some help.we could help circulating the message around.very noble.good gesture.

Many thanks for your offer of help. Gnomefest set up a page called 'Song for Burma'. Our technology skills are limited and unfortunately gnome are off-line at the moment due to works on their system. They have said they will help and don't want to tread on any toes. However if you would like to put the song on your page (myspace/facebook/etc) and network with it, we would appreciate it. Anything to help the cause.

Thankyou from DSS

Its lovely! Sorry I heard this too late for my post... but it seems you are having success with it anyway. You are so very kind hearted, best wishes to you and your lovely music xx
Well done with a lovely melody and a righteous cause. I recently helped organize a music fundraiser with teenage bands for the Burmese people. Music and philanthropy is a mighty force.I hope your song helps inspire others to help.

Thanks for your comment. At least we can both say, we did something to help the Burmese people. Keep up your good work.

Hey guys,

Just dropping by to thank you for getting in touch - and for your kind words.

Your songwriting is pretty strong, and definitely commercial. And the voice is fine too.

Hope it all works out for you. Not sure how good this site is for networking your content - seems to us to be one of those 'good intentions' ideas someone had at a record company in denial of MySpace and all the rest.

In fact, forget record companies all together. They're on their knees now and we need to find new ways to be heard.

Love and itches,

The Fleas

Many thanks for getting in touch and your advise in the PM. Good luck with The Fleas.

Best Wishes

DSS
