Feedback is the difference maker on Soundcloud because it keeps your tune in circulation, keeps it on the radar; no feedback and it disappears from view! 
It also serves as hype, if visitors see you've received lots of feedback it's more likely to arouse their curiosity! The more proactive we are the better Soundcloud gets!

THE REAL SOUNDCLOUD FAMILY vol 19 various family

Take your time. It's all right 
to take it slow sometimes.

Take your mind off your weary life and those
that remind you it's not okay to smile.

I just don't got in me.
I just don't got in me
to take this seriously

It tastes just fine.
Savor every bite. 
The finite and sublime.

Ooo It ain't right. 
No, no, no I don't think so.

Take your eyes off the devil's prize and go back.
It's okay to laugh.

I just don't got in me.
I just don't got in me
to take this seriously

Seriously

This track was inspired by my feelings of how I think the world has changed, and we are living in uncertain times. Diseases and viruses everywhere and madmen wanting to destroy the planet.

On Account Of The Rain

404 Nowhere Street

This whole area used to be fields
I’ll tell you about it one day
Building where I was born
Apartments there today
Steller’s Jay perched on this post
Like a farmer’s weather vane
Photo snapped but time had lapsed
Just as it flew out of frame

I once saw a 280 wrapped around that tree.
you could see the blood stains
until the next day that it rained

All this to say that 
life is very long 
No one ever tells you when you're 
writing your last song
So no chorus bridge or solo
Speak from your heart with every note

Every meal that we shared together 
became an empty plate
we never asked if the cups 
were half full 
before we drank
I wonder if she's still down there
I knew the lady who drowned there
that's the spot on the river
Her boat sank

All this to say that 
life is very long 
No one ever tells 
you when you're 
singing your last song
So no chorus bridge or solo
Speak from your heart with every note

The Amyl Nitrate Quartet is a bit tongue-in-cheek, slightly satirical, off the wall, zany, quirky, experimental, a bit punky, a bit funky, neither one thing or the other, accidentally fusing a multitude of genres!

UGLY AS SIN


YOU MUST POSSESS
A BEAUTY WITHIN
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY
CAUSE NOW YOU ARE UGLY AS SIN

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
A PHOTOGRAPHER’S DREAM
THAT RIDICULOUS CHIN
AND THE CHEEKIEST GRIN

YOU MUST HAVE HAD A SMILE THAT COULD WIN
SEND A HEART IN A SPIN
PAIR OF EYES THAT COULD SWIM
AND THE SOFTEST OF SKIN

I MUST CONFESS I WAS YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN
BUT THEN YOUR BODY CLOCK SHE WENT CRAZY
AND YOU JUST SWELLED LIKE A DAMN

YOU USE TO BE A WOW WITH THE MEN
BUT THEN THE SWELLING BEGAN
KINDA RUINED THE TAN

IT MUST HAVE WIPED THE SMILE OF YOUR CLOCK
LEFT YOUR BOX WITHOUT LOCKS
GIVE YOUR SHELL SUCH A SHOCK
AND YOUR EGO A KNOCK

YOU MUST POSSESS
A BEAUTY WITHIN
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY
BUT NOW YOU ARE STRIPPED OF YOUR SKIN

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
A BEAM OF THE SUN
BUT YOU GREW TO BECOME
THE ONE PEOPLE WILL SHUN

YOU MUST HAVE SUFFERED SEVERAL SHOCKS
WITH THE LOSS OF YOUR LOCKS
FROM THE TOP OF YOUR BOX
WIPED THE SMILE OF YOUR CLOCK

YOU MUST POSSESS
A BEAUTY WITHIN
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY
CAUSE NOW YOU ARE UGLY AS SIN


YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
A PHOTOGRAPHER’S DREAM
WITH YOUR MAGNETIC BEAM
AS WIDE AS A SCREEN

YOU MUST HAVE SUNK A COUPLE OF SHIPS
WHEN YOU WIGGLED YOUR HIPS
WHEN YOU PUCKERED YOUR LIPS
AND SPAT OUT THE PIPS

BREAK

YOU MUST POSSESS
A BEAUTY WITHIN
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN A BEAUTIFUL BABY
CAUSE NOW YOU ARE UGLY AS SIN

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
A PHOTOGRAPHERS DREAM
WITH YOUR MAGNETIC BEAM
AS WIDE AS THE SCREEN

YOU MUST HAVE SUNK A COUPLE OF SHIPS
WHEN YOU WIGGLED YOUR HIPS
WHEN YOU PUCKERED YOUR LIPS
AND MADE WITH THE QUIPS

I MUST MAKE TESTS
EXAMINE YOUR SCAN
YOU MAY HAVE BEEN THE CONSUMATE LADY
BUT YOU HAVE THE MOUTH OF A MAN

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
A BUNDLE OF FUN
LIKE ATTILA THE HUN
NEVER SHORT OF A PUN

YOU EVEN REINVENTED THE RAP
WITH YOUR FREUDIAN SLIPS
WITH A SHOWER OF SPIT
OF YOUR TONGUE WORDS WOULD TRIP

YOU MUST CONFESS
YOU’RE ONE HELL OF A MESS
YOU MAY HAVE BEEN THE BONNIEST BABY
BUT NOW YOU ARE TWO TON LIKE TESS



YOU’VE JUST BEGUN
TO PILE ON THE FLESH
WILL YOU BLOCK OUT THE SUN
WELL IT’S ANYONE’S GUESS

YOU USE TO STRUT YOUR STUFF WITH THE BEST
NOW YOUR THIGHS HAVE GONE WEST
NOW THERE’S MORE TO LOVE LESS
YOU EXPLODE FROM A DRESS

I MUST CONFESS I WAS YOUR NUMBER ONE FAN
BUT THEN YOUR BODY CLOCK SHE WENT CRAZY
AND YOU JUST SWELLED LIKE A DAM

YOU USE TO BE A WOW WITH THE MEN
BUT THE SWELLING BEGAN
KINDA RUINED THE TAN

IT MUST HAVE WIPED THE SMILE OF YOUR CLOCK
LEFT YOUR BOX WITHOUT LOCKS
GIVE YOUR SHELL SUCH A SHOCK
AND YOUR EGO A KNOCK

UGLY AS SIN

My first full-length play for BBC Radio 4. Going in, all I knew was that I wanted to use sound the way we use pictures in film and TV. I came up with the idea of audio surveillance early on and we carried it through from the script into production; planting microphones around the location and letting the actors move in and out of range.Produced by Karen Rose/Sweet Talk Productions. Starring Sarah Smart, Sean Gallagher, Phillip Glenister, Nicola Walker, Dan Ryan, Lesley Sharp, Will Kemp.

Cutting Floor Ideas

Don't Go

Tragedy in Yemen doesn't seem to be a result of Shia-Sunni conflict, failure of a political transition or Arab spring. What's the true reason behind Saudi-U.S. bombing?  Perhaps Yemen’s open criticism of the U.S.-Saudi invasion in Iraq alienated the country; perhaps the USS Cole provocation attack might have provided the reason for escalation and the future invasion.

“In the fall of 1990, the newly created Republic of Yemen took the position that a diplomatic solution for Iraq’s aggression should be reached between the Arab countries. Yemen’s refusal to join the U.S.-Saudi military coalition against Iraq prompted Saudi Arabia to expel several hundred thousand Yemeni workers and to cut all foreign aid to Yemen; most of the other Arab oil states followed suit. Within months, the republic’s gross domestic product and government revenues—to which external aid contributed significantly—plunged; the unemployment and inflation rates, as well as the budget deficit, soared. By 1992, general contraction of the economy had produced widespread and deepening privation, and modest increases in oil revenues did not add much to the capacity of the new government to ease the growing suffering and to stem the collapse of the economy.”

Jack Kennedy (retired FBI special agent), Maureen Reagan (retired FBI special agent) and Joseph Harding (retired FBI special agent) view on the USS Cole attack
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjPADtoTwbA

Wayne Madsen (former Navy officer and NSA employee):
"The former CIA agent [John O’Neill] who worked with the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force in New York and New Jersey stated that the USS Cole was hit by a specially-configured Popeye cruise missile launched from an Israeli Dolphin-class submarine.  Israeli tests of the missile in May 2000 in the waters off Sri Lanka demonstrated it could hit a target 930 miles away. The ex-CIA agent also stated that Ambassador Bodine threw John O’Neill and his team out of Yemen lest their investigation began uncovering evidence that the Cole was not blown up by an explosive-laden boat but by an Israeli cruise missile. 
The former CIA agent said the reason for the Israeli attack was to further galvanize U.S. public opinion against both Al Qaeda and the Democrats in the weeks prior to the 2000 presidential elections. The Bush-Cheney team could blame the Democrats for not taking the Al Qaeda threat seriously.”

I have no interest in convincing you 
that I am worthy of listening to 
I'll make no case 
I'll save no face 
I'll walk away 
I'll walk away

I'm done subsisting in no man's place
I will not fight I'll say good day
you can have the money 
you can have my name 
I'll walk away 
I'll walk away

Pensive and restless and probing for mines 
I will not fight I'll say good night
that's no way to live a life
I'm calling for a ceasefire 

I have no interest in convincing you 
That I am worthy of listening to 
but I'm gone long gone
I'm gone long gone
I'll walk away 
I'll walk away

The first episode of the Amazing Show featuring James Randi and hosted by a very young and green and hoarse Justin Robert Young. It covers the JREF Cruise

The Amazing Show with James Randi

The Amazing Show - Episode 1

Anyone seeking authenticity, imagination & personality, in creativity should explore unsigned music; that's where my faith in the future of music lies!

UNSIGNED MUSIC isn't inferior to SIGNED by any stretch of the imagination! Look past the illusion, find out what you're missing!
>
Some Soundcloud musicians receive tens of thousands of listens, and more power to them, but spare a thought for those of us who struggle to reach double figures; it isn’t always because our tunes are inferior!

Why swap support, swap genuine listens, feedback and shares?

We are all competing with tens of millions of musicians; to say it’s overcrowded out there is a huge understatement, and it’s that overcrowding that makes it so difficult to reach an audience—it’s exactly like searching for a needle in a haystack, and who has the time to do that!

That’s why the support of other musicians is so important, that’s why the respect, the hype, the acknowledgement must start with us! When we are so dismissive of each other’s talent, why should a listening audience treat us any differently!   

When we disrespect, dismiss and shun each other’s talent and music, what we are saying to the world is, we don’t waste our time listening to the tunes of unsigned and independent musicians because they are inferior to those signed, established, musicians—it’s negative advertising!

If we are to have any chance of breaking the stranglehold of a mercenary music industry, if we are to have any chance of convincing a potential audience that our music is , more than not, actually superior to signed music, more inventive, more innovative, more creative, more imaginative, and a whole lot less formulaic!

Music has come a long way, it’s never been so diverse, so it’s ridiculous that people are forced to listen to formula conveyor belt music, high on production, low on substance! Listeners have no idea they are being spoon-fed scrag ends; they belief the myth that signed means superior—well I’ve heard enough unsigned music to know that just ain’t true….but we’re never going to prove that as long as we continue to treat each other’s music as though it were worthless! @MusiciansWithVision
