Over the last couple of days I've been listening to two cds that I just received from members of this list and have been enjoying them quite a bit. What I was wondering was how many of us on this list have CDs of music that we have created that we feel have never really circulated as much as we might like? And then I struck upon the idea of trying to organize a one time (initially at least) trading circle here. What I'm thinking is that everyone who wants to be involved would send a message to the curator/director/whatever you call them (I will volunteer but it will be after the holidays before anything actually starts to happen) stating that they are interested, how many discs they want to trade (and hence the number they will receive hopefully), and where they're willing to ship them to (across oceans can get a tad pricey). We could also possibly ask for a general genre so that no one gets stuck with ambient guitar music they don't want :-) (btw, that is humor, I am an ambient guitarist much of the time). I imagine that we will finally have a list of people who have said they want to trade x number of discs and then I'll simply keep a tab and then start to match people up and tell them where to send their discs and what to expect from whom. I don't know if this will get overwhelming or not (guess it depends on how many people want to get in on it) but it seemed like a good way to get some of this group's music circulating (I personally don't much care to download 30+ minute songs and find I listen better if I have a hard copy to move around from place to place). Does this sound like a good idea to people and if so, does anyone want to go in on it? Kevin -- How amazing, how amazing! Hard to comprehend that Nonsentient beings expound Dharma.
