Hi there,

I'm sticking my cock in the piranha tank here, but here goes... I'm in the process of putting together a demo - the songs are finished (four of them), and I'm put artwork and covers etc together, hope to have it all finished by the end of this week - and I thought I could ask anyone around here on DiS if they'd like to review it. Don't know who or who doesn't have a blog / website / zine / spare time, so I'm offering it onto the masses to take if they want.

My music is 'noisy electropop', roughly. In essence, it's made up of samples I've recorded and samples I haven't, all bundled up and processed to shit, backed by heavy drums and synths and guitars, with me singing/droning over the top. Other people have compared me to the likes of Hot Chip, The Postal Service, Beck, Cornelius, Casiotone for the Painfully Alone. That's pretty vague, but I hope you get the idea.

So... if you fancy reviewing it (even if it's just a couple of words), I can send you an electronic copy before the end of the week. PM me (with or without yer email address) and I'll send you the link!

At the end of the week i'll release the link for everyone to have (if they want). And if anyone really likes it, I can send you a hard copy (I only have 100 of them though).

Why do I ask DiS? Because I figured someone here might be interested, and I like to get my music 'out there'.

Many thanks,

Richard xxx

PS: is this a shit idea? Any comments would be lovely.
