I think I’ll do that tonight. I haven’t posted my stuff seriously since 2010ish.

I made videos and everything but I lost them all.

Heck my mom saved two but they’re not in the quality I put them in. My ex called her and said I was deleting them so she rushed to save what she could and got those.

I was in a very bad place back then. Actually ended up being diagnosed with cannabis induced psychosis by the time it was all over.

Here are those two. I don’t care for the one where I did the ghostly images. The song could have been good but it was too long.

Thank you guys for taking interest in this stuff. I might let my brother put it all on Spotify haha. He’s been trying to get me to for a while.

Hell yeah man, good stuff! If you do end up putting your stuff on the streaming services, don't forget about all the stuff you gotta do to collect royalties, this is what's holding me back from releasing my music lol

No problem! Looks like you've already got a few fans here!

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It blows my mind that anyone would be interested. I’ve spent 25 years doing this quietly and barely showing anyone. Most of these are old enough to drink haha.

It’s a good feeling.

I dig it, kinda got an Iron + Wine/early Radiohead feel. But yeah, you never know who's gonna be into your music unless you put it out there! I made a post a few weeks ago on the various "AskLemmy" comms, asking if it was cool to promote a little bit here, everyone seemed cool with it, so when I can scrounge up the cash for the things on that list I linked, I'm gonna be posting stuff here too lol

Well hey, promote your music to me please.

I know this is sacrilege, but I was always a big fan of the hits from Radiohead. Iron and wine, endless numbered days, I think is the name of the record I have had sitting on the shelf for like 20 years, man. That had a huge impact on me.

I appreciate you listening. I mean it. Bigger than I could ever express in a comment.
