Hi Carl,
I had a listen to your songs over on youtube, very nice, I especially liked "Blue Heart".
A few of us have done CD's via CDBaby. The basic setup is actually quite fast, including sending out to all the digital distribution places, unless you choose the Pro Publishing package which also includes the ASCAP/BMI/performing rights society registration.
Anyway it is a fun thing to do, and doesn't cost that much money in the grand scheme of things.
Best of luck with it!

Man, what great songs! And what a true multi-instrumentalist. You really did a great job on this.
I think each is great in it's own way. I really love the sound and feel of Doubt. And By the Way reminds me of a less busy version of Bruce Hornsby.
All the way around solid songs, played and produced well. You should be proud!

Carl, I wouldn't take the lack of comments personally. The forum has been much more quiet than usual. It happens. Give it time. I was surprised at how few comments various posts were getting; then realized it's "just one of those times" that happens every so often. Again, really liked the song!

Hi Carl ...
Listened to all the samples and I think you did a very nice job. All were well-performed, mixed and mastered. I liked the relative simplicity of the arrangements - and that's not easy to do and still get a full, rich sound, which you did.
I particularly enjoyed "Let's Walk Along" and "Doubt". They were all very good, but those two stood out for me.
Nicely done ... I enjoyed them, Good luck!!!

Impressive set of instrumentals...
The ones I like the most in were "Dance with Me", "Let's Walk Along", & "Blue Heart"...
I hope you CD sells well!

After several very nice comments from forum members, I wonder whether there is anyone on the forum who would comment on their experience with CDBaby - my CD 'By The Way' featuring BB backing went online via CDBaby on the 3rd March 2019, so far my account with them indicates not a single sale/download?? I wasn't expecting miracles or vast amounts of money coming my way - but 'not a single download' in 3 months doesn't sound right to me, considering the size of the Internet?
Any feedback much appreciated! CM

Have you looked at DistroKid, for £20 it puts your music on all the big sites and a lot I have never heard of. You also get 100% of the sales price.

Any feedback much appreciated! CM There are a lot of songs out there with literally 0 streams on Spotify, never mind download or CD sales. Because it's a lot easier for people to distribute music than ever before, there's so much music out there for people to listen to. Without a lot of promotion or already having a fan base, you might struggle to get people to listen no matter how good your music is. I know that my listening habits have usually been similar to the average person and I usually stick to the same artists unless I hear something I like on the radio or TV. I'm certainly not the best person to give advice on the best route forward as I haven't got the experience. But that might explain why you haven't had any sales.

Hi Tim, Richard and Greg - thanks all very much for your recent comments and advice, very sorry I've had rather a lot going on lately and missed your posts!
Never heard of DistroKid, thanks Tim I'll check that out!!
Richard - yes I know only too well how much music there is out there and how many musicians are trying hard to get a bit of success. The instrumental tunes on my first CD (CDBaby Amazon & GooglePlay download) aren't to everyone's taste - I'm just now making a start on CD 2 with BB2019 Ultra+ Mac, hoping to do better and complete it during the winter months?
Greg - thanks a lot for having a listen and for your comments, all original tunes recorded mixed & mastered by yours truly in Logic Pro X on MacBook Pro i7 - I have no experience or particular knowledge or skills in audio engineering, I do everything by feel and by ear!
Cheers all, Carl
