U want Spotify playlists!?

Promotion. Fame. Money. Not my thing. Just want to create. I have this urge that's developed into a steady workflow. I'm a lucky guy! I've got the most advanced tools to bring a song alive, working eight days a week in my studio, happy to bring the vibe. My toy garden.

But if you want someone to hear your precious songs, it's unavoidable. The music market is saturated with the daily trends and bored listeners, so it's not easy to get discovered.
How to spread these all over the place these days....? I don't do concerts. I like the intensity of playing together. It has been fun for a while, but I don't miss the stage, no. Well if you do and you do it with conviction, people would love to buy a signed cd afterwards (! )
I guess everyone streams these days. It's the most comfortable and fastest way to experience  a new vibe. Mostly I get in touch with curators of playlists. Let them hear some tunes. On twitter. Of course twitzkrieg is around the corner. I spread those links on facebook groups too. A lot of fakers (promoters) over there though..... You can get a lot of listeners and followers if you want...to pay for it. All I offer them are a few cents.
I think it's all about reaching your own audience and I sort of got the hang of it. I'm patient.
Quality over quantity.

Here are a few playlists with JoosTVD on it, mostly smooth vibes, some uptempo, upbeat, never dissonant. Yeah, easy on the ears, but hitting deep into the gut. So let's find out and share them!

Songs I usely offer are:
Fly Talk, Don't Do It Again, Not Now, Chameleon Girlfriend, Crest Of A Wave, Cosmopolitan Circus.

Albumtitle 2012: Art Decoy The Bluebeard Boy

Art?

Strange title?
      I like the arty farty sound of it....

Decoy?

Finally, here are the front/ back and innersleeves of the new collection of songs. Still trying to figure out some minor details though (mixing and a little smoothing up my vocals). In the near future I'll tell all the background stories behind them.
If you want to summarize it all: tears and joy, I guess, just like many of us, we go through different moods, from one to the other extreme. I'm just so glad I can express that all through my fingertips. Glad with all the feedback I have received on the music I've spread on all those helpful platforms.
Excited?

Bluebeard?

Boy?

Like a kid I am anyway....I'll spread the stuff in a few months (ha ha) or earlier. Distribution will follow (free platforms, spotify, iTunes, etc and of course along this blog). Tell it to your friends or enemies on facebook! Feedback is always welcome.
Next up: the process

Face me, U, me like!

Well, I don't visit my facebookbandpage (Face JoosTVD) that often, and it shows. I only spread some silly stuff around, by clicking on the icons. Yes, I like clicking, you know, ahum. But, as you've got the nerves to visit this page, you can do something with those itchy fingers. Click on these icons too!
On the right somewhere.... Oooo, yes I'm desperate!

BTW, there's free music up here for you to like too. So support that poor, lonely page (I'm sobbing like a gelly fruitcake now). No, I ain't gonna show a picture of that scene , couldn't face that one...
