I don't host any mp3's. If I start, I'll add a proper disclaimer. Until then, If your peeved about a track I've linked to email me (DiscGoIsUm[at]gmail.com), and I'll fix it up. If not, enjoy the exposure and hope, as I do, that more people will hear/like/love and buy your audio artworks.
(yes thats a link about Radiohead), or another method I just heard about was The Glimmers releasing their debut by giving it away for free... at their concerts.
Closer to home Australian bands, such as the previously posted about The Presets (which has a new release date on the 11th of April, there's so much news to catch up on!) and now Cut Copy have joined in. The stinge in me hesitated from ordering this copy (I'm hoping you've purchased that one already) hoping an offer like this would come up.
Identical to The Preset offer (except for the artist & album)

Sorry about the lack of coherent-cy in this post, but thats how it is when your running on no sleep and a high from a concert that was days ago... so here are some random topics / paragraphs / pictures and videos...
OK
So I just decided, in an attempt to make some coherent-ness out of this post, to create a sort of content list so you know what to expect from the post. Hope it helps...
So read the other day that the Daft Punk got their name from a NME review that ripped into their old band. The review was from their endeavor as Darlin' which along with Thomas Bangalter & Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo the 'Rock / Surf / Soul' group also featured Laurent 'Branco' Brancowitz (now) of Phoenix fame (com | myspace). The review called Darlin' Daft Punk'. And hence the bohemoeuth began...Man, I want to thank that reviewer!
Check out Daft Punk is screening at my house! for Electroma & Interstella 5555 & lotsa music vids. HERE.
Along with 'My People' The Presets also debut another new track. If you ask me, they played this track to test everyone's reaction, as it's so similar to My People! At the start Julian shouts something to the tune of 'When I was young... I collected (?) my hero'. 'My hero' sounds exactly like 'My People'.
I honestly think they were seeing if they would be able to get away with releasing this track too. And I think they could...
Still too early too tell which is better, having only heard it properly once. It sounded so familiar tho, and I couldn't tell if it was because of my people or because I'd heard it before.. which apparently would have been impossible, because as you can hear in the video, "This one's never been heard before, by anyone, except by us two... so we hope you like it..."
Check it out for yourself:
SebastiAn & Kavinsky, with Busy P
Daft Punk
Maybe more vids later...
I don't know if it was because it was Melbourne or because it was Daft Punk (or if it was just for me), but the crowd was great. And I mean great. Sure, some people trying to get closer, but after they realised you weren't letting them through, did they stay and kick you in the ankle? Or give you elbows in the ribs? Nope. They just moved on. Everyone was there for the great time so they didn't was any of it being bastards. Another thing I noticed was the mass of random hugs, hi fives and they like going on on the walk out. Daft Punk just left everyone in the best mood. And so would this...
Only heard this last night that there were 3 Overdoses At Daft Punk(ninemsn news (look at the title. A 'rave'?) | yahoo news) | the age news), 30 people treated all up, which in my opinion seems pretty low, seeing as there were 13,000 attendees, many of which had been anticipating the even for literally years. Shit thing is, the event co-ords (emails: modular & michael coppel) said NO to an offer of an onsite ambulance. WTF!
Besides the whole drug-dose thing, and I don't know if it was because it was Melbourne or because it was Daft Punk (or if it was just me), but O thought the crowd was great. And I mean great. Sure, some people wore fluro (not many tho), some people tried to get closer, but after they realised you weren't letting them through, did they stay and kick you in the ankle? Or give you elbows in the ribs? Nope. They just moved on.
Daft Punk-ness over and out. For now. For 6 days!
Float my boat.
