At the station, I get way too many emails with irrelevant music submissions mixed in with a large amount of ā€œbusiness opportunitiesā€, website crap, fake invoices, and people who claim to have incriminating videos of me.

If you are using one of these ridiculous music submission services, you probably aren’t reading this. On the other hand, if you are an artist that wants me to take a look at some of your music – in your submission put the subject in the following format:

NTRadio Music Submission – Artist/Band name

I personally wouldn’t recommend paying a music submission service that sends unsolicited, mass-mailed music requests. You’re wasting your money. It’s not just me, most stations probably just ignore them. They’re a waste of time. In my case, even if I played it, it wouldn’t increase your exposure. My station is a niche station. While I don’t have a ton of listeners, the average time that my listeners stay connected puts the major stations’ averages to shame.

For a station like this, it’s all about the music.

If I choose to add your music to the NTR playlist, I’ll let you know. If I don’t get back to you, please don’t take it personally.

Hello World! V2 – Website Info

Howdy all,
I’m in the process of setting up a online store and selling off some of our music and video library.
I’m going to be stepping back and shelving the news for now. It’s just really not good for my mental health. I am deeply concerned about the direction things are going in, but I need to take a break.
I do want to use the website to focus on things that are relevant to living a happy and productive life while navigating through the current insanity.

Most people are not okay
But they’re taking their siestas in the sun
Got some ideas on the way it should be
But most of ’em just carrying on

Going back to when I wrote this post, I was having a pretty rough time for a long time. I tried to set the site up, I guess as a way to be productive and work through things but it all sort of fizzled out. Things have brightened up over the last couple of months. Don’t need the meds anymore at least.

To put it in perspective though – While I went through my own little personal hell, so many other people have and had so much more to deal with than I did, it’s pretty selfish to consider my problems as big, they’re not.
