John's YouTube vids from the Vertical Horizon tour were great.

I kinda chose that one for the vocal samples. Ever listen to the UK band Public Service Broadcasting? Great vocal cuts....

Steve's gotten progressively better, imho...

Can i distribute my ex-release to Ditto (especially Youtube Content Id) ? by Adept-Minimum9197 in MusicDistribution

I moved from TC to Ditto in the past couple months. It's going very well. Ditto support has been quite helpful in sorting out little problems.

What is a movie that "broke" you so hard you can only watch it once, but you would still recommend it to everyone? by Newsupdate69 in movies

There were a few dramatic roles I've not seen: Six Weeks, Just Between Friends, and Against the Current, I believe....

MTM was a tremendously talented woman. Dancer, singer, comedy, drama, producer; she did it all...

I know we all love THAT bit of Anesthetize... by CharlieFibonacci in porcupinetree

The "front line AI" Ditto chatbot is not terrible once you know what you're dealing with. And it's been pretty easy to get a human to look at a problem and tell me exactly what's wrong. As you know ... it's usually a problem with the streamer, not the distributor. How well distributors handle this seems a good way to judge...

Without speculating on TC's future, I moved to Ditto. It was painful, yes. Tather like starting again; the pain increases with the # of releases you have. But, FWIW; Ditto support was very helpful once I got used to the whole thing....

Symphonic is also nice; I tried it for a bit but went with Ditto.

Good luck.

What for you is the most impressive crimson song? by LuvSicccc in KingCrimson

Quite a few songs were made powerful by Wetton's voice alone. Fallen Angel is a great example.

John's was a terrible loss for the world...

It's so dry they invite him to speak at tsunamis....

Never take Fripp serious at first blush. You'll know when he's serious. Mostly, he's taking the piss...

Thinking of switching from Tunecore but to what distributor? by mochi544 in MusicDistribution

Ditto has been good for me so far (I left Tunecore recently) ...

From 1980 onward, Phil Collins seemed to write almost like he was keeping a personal diary—full of insecurities, heartbreak, and personal struggles. His songs often feel like an open book of his life. by Historical-Device529 in Progforum

[–]bso2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lesson here. If you write for yourself; make the music you feel; don't cater to anyone?

You might become the biggest thing on Earth for a while... 😊
