You may remember back in December, Lobelia and I put out a limited edition CDR release of our live in Nebraska EP – 5 tracks taken from our forthcoming live album (release date TBC!)
Well, it’s now avaliable for download from the online store here – for &3.50
It’s over half an hour long, and the track list is
happy 7:34
mmfsog 4:09
i’m lost 5:11
rain 9:14
jimmy james 6:51
and it’s fab – if you go to my myspace page you can hear the first song from it.
anyway, you can get it as a download, it’s fab, you’ll love it, I’m sure. :o)
It’s worth noting that in general, I still sell way more CDs from the online store than I do downloads. I sell more downloads from itunes than I do here, though probably the highest volume of track sales is from emusic, though the unit price is much lower… I’m guessing, I’ve said before, that is at least partly because as a solo bassist/jazz/ambient/whatever artist, my core audience is that bit older, and not comprised of the digital natives in the 15-25 age-group that seem to dominate so much of the discussion around online music. I have a number of listeners who would be unhappy even with 198kbps MP3s (the new ones are 256k VBR), and so still want CD for the quality… I think the next full album will come out on high res MP3 and flac… I may do what Trent Reznor and Saul Williams did and put out a free low-res version, and a paid download much higher res version… we’ll see…
