Promotion thread

[Ryan M.]

O.K. so I'm wondering why we don't have one. This is for advertising projects of your own or of your friends... or hey... any project/band really!!

So... A friend of mine who plays guitar made an album and has put it on iTunes. I'm helping him spread the world a 'lil:

He's 16, and has been playing the guitar for a good while.

He also recently set up a Youtube channel:

Good thinking!!
I'll promote my own record company Ichthys Records
www.ichthysrecords.com
Newly started so there's not much to see yet, but stayed tuned and you'll see some amazing stuff there.

 

[Ryan M.]

Cool! I hope you get lots of artists!

In that case, I believe I'll promote the band DOMINICI. http://dominici.com/

It's headed by former Dream Theater vocalist Charlie Dominici, and their only three albums are concept albums that make up O3: A Trilogy. They're epic and progressive and sound a lot like Dream Theater, but they obviously have their differences. I've become good friends with Charlie on Facebook (I even interviewed him for my blog once), and he's stated many times that the only way that DOMINICI will continue to make music will be if they get a lot more traffic. Knowing how much you guys love metal (and Dream Theater), I'm hoping this will be a great way to spread the word.

The entire first album is done completely by Charlie Dominici himself, playing acoustic guitar, harmonica and vocals. The other two albums are with a full band, formerly known as Solid Vision (before they teamed up with Charlie).

Thanks for sharin' that .

Sorry for spamming this thread with my website, but I thought that I'd let you know that the first song (or sample that is) is now up. Send me an email if you'd like the whole song. Just write that you are from this forum and I'll send it for free

So this is a thread for promoting "projects/bands". My blog might be considered a project... but I doubt it's the kind you're talking about. Would I be able to promote it anyway?

 

[JayArby]

I think it's for promoting anything.

Ok!

Here's my silly MIDI music. It would sound better with real instruments and vocals, especially if I recorded a real guitar.

Try to use headphones, unless you have bassy, non-laptop speakers

EDIT: I put the links in quotes so that I don't have to spam vertical space. They would automatically embed as videos otherwise.

So you are THAT Teo? I thought your name was Paper Carnival on here, bro?

 

[Teo]

Yes, that's also me

 

[FleshAndBloodTheocracy]

It was a sweet name, I liked it. So did you finally get AtWB? Last I talked to you on Facebook, it wasn't available in your country yet.

Here is my blog, for anyone who's interested:
http://rjhorst.blogspot.com/

I've been blogging for 1-2 years, this current blog only a month or so past 1 (and my past blogs were all deleted by stupid blog hosts!). Even with my current blog you can see how much I've improved throughout the last year.

Anyway, I'm a writer. I post reviews, interviews, miscellaneous things, and occasionally a writing work by yours truly. If you're interested, here are a few articles.

Recent book reviews:

The Skin Map by Stephen R. Lawhead

Recent game reviews:
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords
Balloon Fight
Jett Rocket

Miscellaneous writing works:
A Far Off Dream (essay)
The Station of Bridge Between (short story)
One Weird Gas Station (short story)

Interviews (most recent through least recent):
Stefan Schmidt (band member, Van Canto)
Steven Mark Phillips (band member, Crowned Warrior)
Matt Thorson (independent video game designer)

Daniel Remar (independent video game designer)
Magnus Pålsson (digital music artist)
Charlie Dominici (band member, Dominici and formerly Dream Theater)

In the future I plan on doing many more interviews, and for all who are wondering, YES, I'll get around to my AtWB review sometime! Heheh.

[I Rock 4 God]

This is a Prog. band I got into recently, and I really think they deserve more fans. It took me forEVER to find any info on them.

Here are a couple songs.
