    Songstuff Writer and Artist Development Challenges

    By john

    Independent writers and artists face several large disadvantages when they are compared to signed, mainstream writers and artists.  Disadvantages that add up to making it a competition that indies can’t win. Hell they can’t even compete.   Lack of budget and poor contacts are fairly obvious disadvantages. Lack of experience and a lack of knowledge restricts songwriters and artists alike. Lack of an overall strategy, and a limited set of incomplete tactics, makes for a critical problem

Keeping on, keeping on.

There has been progress.   I hate the phrase "LIfe getting in the way". It presupposes that life being lived is in some way less valuable than stamp collecting, trout fishing, off road biking, music (whatever your interest is).   Truth is, that life is what enriches our interest, through providing perspective, and to a certain extent scarcity.   There has been a lot of life since my first post on this blog.  Most of it very positive, and things that you wouldn't set

The Germ of an Idea

I was on a sunbed.   The sun was beating down, and I was thinking about how much I love writing, playing and recording music, but that nothing happened with it.   I have been here at Songstuff for a long while.  I'm not much of an activist -  a part time lurker really, but I started thinking it might be tome for a change.   I wanted to set some rules, some targets and objectives and to see how I can do better than I have before.  Here's what I'm thinking: Cre

Why birds sing their songs: great maestros proving the musicality of nightingale, cuckoo, yellowhammer

It is no coincidence that the sounds emitted by birds are known in many languages as "songs", rather than simple animal noises, all due to their patterns being structurally similar to the forms of human music.   Many generations of researchers have been attempting to determine whether the driving mechanism behind bird songs is tied to some form of conscious musicality or if it simply fits within the concept of basic communication.    Recent studies delve deeper into this pheno

Radiohead Beats Hacker And Donates Money to Extinction Rebellion

Radiohead have released hours of recordings instead of paying ransom money to a hacker who stole them.     Just last week, an unknown hacker stole unreleased recordings of Radiohead. Thom Yorke had recordings on 18 MiniDiscs of music recorded during the recording of OK Computer. Most of the recordings were an hour long. The hacker threatened Radiohead with the online release of the recordings if they didn’t pay the hacker a ransom of $150,000.     But Ra

Songstuff Compilation - Call For Submissions

This is a call for submissions for the inclusion of tracks in a compilation album. The compilation is as a fundraiser for Songstuff.   The idea is simple. If your track is selected to be included, any funds made directly from compilation sales will go towards funding our community. Submission of your tracks is on that understanding. We would also need your permission to use tracks to promote the compilation, permission to edit for that purpose and to master so that all the tracks sit w

Quadraphonic vinyl reveals new Atom Heart Mother details

In the late 1960s, after the stereo sound almost completely replaced the mono format in the recording industry, the attention of engineers was shifted to quadrophonic sound technology.   Unfortunately, at that time, quad-sound was not widespread due to equipment manufacturers failing to develop a common quad standard, releasing recordings and record players of various formats to the mass market which made it hard to find a match.   Nevertheless, quad recordings forced the sou

Sliver of A Moon

I met my co-writer on Facebook. We've done two songs via the internet as I live in the States and he lives in Wales. I didn't have a good melody for my lyrics and he created this awesome guitar lick and sang it. Funny thing to note is that he sang the word silver instead of SLiver but you'll get the gist of the song. Her is SLiver of a moon hope you like it:
