hm.. music distribution?..What do YOU think?
14 years ago
Hey, it's been a month since I last wrote a journal.. I guess I don't have that much to say xD except for declaring my undying love for theblackvixen.. xD
A fan of mine, (I'd like to call him a friend/fan :P) called StrangeWolf_ actually put this idea in my mind.
He wants me to upload my music to Itunes.
First, I was sceptical. I've always lived by the policy of my music being free and for everyone to listen to.
That's when it hit me. What if I can offer songs for free in an mp3 quality and for money in a 44.1 Mhz WAV quality on itunes. That way the listener can choose whether to download it for free or support my trip to go see my girlfriend by buying the Itunes song.
The reason this hit me is because Money is the only thing keeping me and the love of my life apart. I don't draw very well.. so commissions are out of the question, I don't really have the stones to charge for writing stories.. meh.. The only thing I really can do, if anything, is this!
So what do you think?
Would you buy a song from me for around a dollar to support my trips to the US?
Then the inevitable fact strikes me as a negative influence. The quality of my recordings. I've been beating myself up over my musics lack of "pro-quality". What if I could master it so that they would actually be WORTH buying?
So I fooled around with musical mastering and I've already mastered and "stereofied" two of my original songs. I might upload one later as a reference.
but then again, What do YOU as the listener think?
Is the quality good enough to voluntarily pay for?
Would YOU?
Any feedback would be AWESOME!
Thank you for taking your time to listen and I hope you like whatever I may submit in the future.
Take care
Best regards
Joa
Oh and I love you nikki! <3

Support one hundred percent of the way, Sweets! <3
Also, I really need to listen to "goin' on the road" when I walk to work XD Such a befitting tune for my jolly walks X3
I love you too! <3
I saw the little footnote!~ XD
Thank you so much, my angel :) Your support is worth so much to me <3
Posting a free and a higher-quality paid version of each song sounds like a plan to me, though. It certainly can't hurt to try!
I would love it if we could collaborate to work something out :) Would be awesome to gain some experience from other musicians as well ^^ Thank you!
