  Hi GBS. I hope it's okay for me to post this. It's always been okay in the past, but then it's been a while. I make music under the name conelrad which has generally gone down pretty well on SA and elsewhere. It's electronic ambient/drone/hauntology/downtempo/textured/whatever and I give it away for free. Anyway last night I put out a new album and I thought it would be good to tell goons about it like I normally do. It's called toward compliant towers and you can get it from http://conelrad.co.uk for free (or pay what you want). It's a kind of a drone release. unashamedly synthetic, but still, I hope, human. the bases of the songs come from memory, but not from nostalgia. I really hope you enjoy it. it has maybe a little more colour than some of my previous drone stuff. particularly good to have on while writing, drawing, or travelling on a train or boat or a plane – just put it on and go with it. There's a whole back catalogue of albums there which you can also have for free which seem to have made a lot of people happy over the years so do enjoy those too if you like. Hope you like it.

Stoat posted:Sure Is The Risk Made is still an album I listen to to this day and holy poo poo it's 6 years old :O Yeah, I can't believe it's 6 years since I put that out. It still does a pretty good trade according to the various stats and metrics I can look at on spotify, last.fm and stuff. Thanks for sticking with me.

This is really cool because I love your stuff. Conelrad has been the "music to write to" for me for the past couple years. I can't wait to hear this new stuff!

Sweet! I really enjoy your earlier stuff, so I'm looking forward to giving your newest a listen. If it's anything like your older material, It'll sit in my active playlist for years and years.  In other words, thanks!

Oddly enough, I've found your music outside of SA before. I notice it reminds me a bit of Boards of Canada. Very cool man!

ZearothK posted:Cool, funnily enough I was asking myself "I wonder what Conelrad is up to nowadays" on my way back home. Thanks guys. Yeah, BOC were an early influence and I'm not ashamed to say their influence has never really left my stuff. And yeah, SA was one of the first places where I really put out my stuff. GBS was a good early boost for me. Titus Sardonicus posted:"eight long minutes" not eight minutes long 0/10 The magic of Art midnightclimax posted:Are you on bandcamp? I'd buy your stuff and write poo poo like "do you have stairs????" in the comments Yeah, in fact I'm using Bandcamp as the main vector for distributing my stuff now. conelrad.co.uk links to the bandcamp but a direct link is http://conelrad.bandcamp.com There's a whole bunch of albums there going back to 2007 and they're all free.I always do free/pwyw with albums. Makes me feel free to do what I want instead of feeling pressure for my stuff to appeal to XYZ demographic. Farm Crisis Zero fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Sep 28, 2015 |

I liked sure is the risk made and am looking forward to listening to this. Any plans to put it on spotify as well? Eventually -- I've got Sure is the Risk Made on Spotify already but I'm still trying to figure out whether it's worth doing. Certainly it doesn't bring money in as Spotify is dreadful for indie artists, but if my objective is to reach as many people as possible I can't rule out expanding the stuff I have on there. atomicthumbs posted:i have liked your music ever since I first heard it in the last part of That Insidious Beast. Aw thanks man. I was really happy to contribute to That Insidious Beast and (later) Liminal States, even though time didn't permit me to really flesh out the project as much as I'd wanted to. And yeah that's my favourite track on the album I think, though that might be because it's the last one I completed so it feels freshest to me. Remember to share the album around, it's meant for sharing

Oh man I loved your stuff when I was younger and just discovering ambient music. I'm really happy that you are still putting out stuff. Just started listening this latest album, and I can say that I loved pipe dream already. Also, I wonder if your music goes well with programming, but I guess I'm going to find out tomorrow.
