Most if any know I come from playing guitar since 92, but it was my first love. Later in 98 I started writing electronic. I don't share anything guitar related online, or sing. My music was greatly ignored online for years, and I can't let my guitar songs become that way as well.
The internet is a place that robs your soul and I'm trying to get my soul back with the music I released since 2010 here. The more it's ignored the more I want to take it back and hide it from people. A system that holds us down and keeps us from thriving together has done this to me. I hope #WEATNU Hub is a place where you can share freely without regret. Maybe all of us can.

In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team!".
going to be revamping the radio side of #WEATNU [OUR] - Online Underground Radio - our main radio sub-domain will be found at radio.weatnurecords.com
This makes more sense and helps create a new website so people can listen, join and see who are playing. It's a more professional look than what we have now. We were Radio to start, and having that as the root of #WEATNU we will continue in this direction.
You can listen here, been there for years https://weatnurecords.com/weatnu-our
and0rod madnessdjwill our tunes be played on it?

B. HasemeyerIf "video killed the radio star," then headphones is killing music as a true art form. I never want my work to be boiled down to entertainment. I'm an artist. I want my music playing on a speaker.
Almark *and that my friend, is why we are here.
Clara HembreeI just got a great set of headphones. I think headphones are a wonderful way to experience music. I have great speakers also... gets me up and dancing sometimes depending on the tune. Ain't nothin' like vinyl and an old receiver.
In my opinion, I think super low quality MP3s and low quality streaming is what's killing today's music. People aren't hearing the nuances and true sounds the artist is portraying. How can folks really enjoy the music without really hearing it? It's like putting out a painting in low lighting or bad fluorescent lighting. You're just not going to see the painting for what it is or experience the colors or see the brush strokes. Likewise with music, we need to actually be able to hear the sounds to experience the song or composition.
Almark *Merry Christmas Clara :)
the peak of headphones was 14 years ago.
Good phones = clean mix, I use them to balance stuff but I've been doing it for so long I know my setup.
For my music not those I mix I do use phones, sony ones.
B. HasemeyerI have a set of Dr Dre bluetooth phones that I use at least for final mixdown when producing songs. But I agree 100% Clara, vinyl is perfection, the absolute best. Perhaps one day I'll hear one of my own tracks on record. Until then I'll keep making one brushstroke at a time, working with the guitar and my voice mostly, and when I am in my studio space with my equipment set up and in my work mode, a good old amp or even the old desktop L and R monitors always do me much better than any pair of over the ear headphones. It's amazing what you can hear when you turn down the volume, those brush strokes start to emerge, and you can actually produce music at a much lower volume level overall than what you may have thought possible. I use my Dre's mostly for recreational listening or mastering on the go, and they are good for that, but when I'm home working I would much rather listen aloud.
