I've been wondering to myself how I'm going to reconcile my strictly scoring-type duties with the unfortunate fact that I simply cannot prevent myself from writing songs. I wonder if there would be any serious interest among the members of this board in an I-tunes-like service on this board--- where I could post recent songs for limited purchase on a song by song basis, like "Itunes", with careful descriptions of each song, so nobody buys something theyre guaranteed to hate. Brutal critiques of each song would be welcomed, as well, to further protect any buyer from out and out shite. I've written probably 50 full length songs since A Fine Mess, and I'll have a new studio up and running June 12, so production wouldnt really be a problem, time allowing. It does seem kind of a shame that nobody ever hears these songs, as some of them, I think, are pretty good. I mean, I get pleasure from them, but that does get sort of onanistic. And given schedules and insecurity and such, it'd probably be a pretty sporadic, inspiration-driven thing, but it would at least be a reason to gradually record and release these songs, without the messy ego-ness of the pop biz. Any thoughts?
