Something Beta That Doesn't Suck

Beta Blooger is giving me conniption fits, but so far I have nothing but good things to say about Beta Records- it's a free file hosting thingie, I was able to claim the name 'Allan' so I don't know how many users it has, but it works just like it says it should, which is not something I associate with the 'b-word'.

Here, this is my brand-new music site. You can join my Fan Club.

I have joined the Fan Club of Angela, who introduced me to this site, so I encourage you to do the same. Despite her protests, her music is not sleepytime music at all, it is deceptively tranquil, but the dynamics and moods are subtle, dramatic and evocative, elegance without ostentation.
The RainMaker is a good song to blog to:" here is an idea", it says. It encourages reflection and then there's the torrent- notes not words- but it reminds me of the writing process- just listen, huh?

In other music news, it looks like I'll be on the radio quite a bit in the weeks to follow, which you can see on my new music site which I will link to again here.

And I've taken some new roles on at the radio station- details to follow- so let me repeat my offer- if you or someone you know is making good music and wants to get played on our local station, I am glad to help with that. Listen for a song or two by young Mr. Adam Taylor (Charlie's son) on an upcoming Sunday show, and of course there will be the beautiful Angela on Christmas Eve.
The last time I played Adam, a fellow DJ said he had a 'Elvis Costello' aesthetic, even though he doesn't sound like EC, I agree. The world hasn't broken this young man's spirit and , by gum, I hope it never does.
On the other hand, his Dad is quite the curmudgeon and I'd avoid his blog, which is here,
unless you enjoy depression. You can't swing a dead cat these days without swatting a depressed blogger, so maybe you'll enjoy his cranky rants - which you can read here if you must.

We are indy media, we support indy artists and if you have spent the time to create and record your music then the least I can do is give you some airtime, albeit small.
So let me know.
I'll join your Fan Club.
