Your Commitment to Releasing Something in 2024

I have so much stuff ready to release and in the pipe. Finishing up an ambient album and then maybe an EP but also working on another movie soundtrack… My few supporters might get sick of me after 2024 lol

Got three tracks ready to go for my first Bandcamp release, two of which originate from my Jamuary sessions. Probably going to make it a four track ep, because the tracks share a similar feel and vibe, and I would want a wider colour palette for an album release.

I hope to put out a few releases this year.

I’m finally dropping, as the young folks say, my first solo release on Friday.

It’s going to be out on all the usual platforms, streaming and BandCamp.
I’ll post links and info when it’s online but just wanted to say that I’m really happy that I finished it and being able to live up to my previous commitment in this thread.

I really hope you all push through with your goals for releasing your music. Even when you might have doubts or think that it’s too big a task to finish, mix, master, create videos and social media promotion. I surely been through all these doubts and many times almost gave up on it and just wanted to start a new jam on my latest toy.

But it really feels great now that I’m on the other side of the work load and actually have the opportunity to start something fresh again.

Easy peasy! I should be releasing something very soon (but only after taking about a million years to finish the project). Tough to find the balance between releasing and perfecting, especially if you’ve sunk so many hours into a project and know it can be better.

Yeah I can relate to some of that, time is precious and sometimes you have to choose between pleasure and duty.
I really hope you find the right balance that works for you and get your music out in the open.

Music, like software, is never “finished.” It’s simply “released.” And the things that bug you probably won’t be noticed by the average listener

:heavy_check_mark: released something (on Bandcamp)
:heavy_check_mark: got an amazing review
:heavy_check_mark: got a stranger to spend money on something I did

If I can, you definitely can!

A big thing getting in the way of me doing any sort of official releases has always been artwork. I’m trying to get around that by learning how to use jWildfire and fractal flames to create something evocative. Here’s one of my attempts.

Put my first EP out on bandcamp, link in the our music section, and someone actually paid money for it today.

First time I’ve ever sold a music release!

Congrats! That’s a seriously great accomplishment, and it’s a wonderful feeling.

Well, this didn’t age well.

Alright, so for 2024, I am committing to -1 release. That’s right, not only do I predict I will not release anything, but someone will steal one of my current releases.

The bar is set very low. Let the games begin!

lol, I’d be kinda proud if someone would consider my music good enough to release under their own name :sweat_smile:

Yeah, but that one release you released was pretty darn good! Thats a quality over quantity structure. You can’t beat it

Thanks you! :beers:

I’m going with the no quality and no quantity! Working out super great so far!!

music to annoy my neighbors was pretty awesome though so I don’t know if I can take this statement at face value.
