OK, I am not sure what Album you are talking about, but then I am as scattered as can be, but I haven't lost interest in your work at all. People come and people go...the talent lives on forever. Remember that!

you need to tell people where it is and how to get it. In your blog section not in chat. people forget what's said in chat too quickly.

Judging by the dates, you uploaded 17 tracks in two weeks, which is an average of slightly more than one per day. That's quite a lot of new music to take in. I don't know how long each of the songs is, but then neither does anyone else, because iComp doesn't report song lengths. It does mean, however, that if someone only visits the site every few days and is interested in following your project, then all of a sudden they have half a dozen tracks to listen to in order to catch up, and that's weighed against a bunch of other artists that they like to follow as well.

On top of that, you were pretty clear about AoD being a concept album with a story -- you numbered the tracks, talked a lot about the story, etc., which represents a certain amount of pressure for the listener to do things 'properly', namely start at the beginning and listen to everything in sequence, in case they don't understand the later tracks. This pressure, combined with the fast upload rate, may well mean that people missed a song or two, saw that they'd fallen behind and gave up, or decided to wait until you were finished and come back to listen to the rest (and, of course, in the meantime may have moved on to something else).

When my next album is finally done I'm planning to try to generate a little buzz beforehand with teasers and blogs, then upload no more than one track every week, to give people time to listen without feeling like I'm bombarding them. This approach worked well for Shadows, my last album (although there it helped that I would finish and upload one track then start recording the next, so delay was inevitable).

I put out music for myself , and for my God.. .No one else... I like the attention when I get it.. However.. I have gotten used to getting no responses for my creations at times.. ...

Their is no control of other people for anything..

You can try marketing concepts.. and make the tunes all 3 1/2 minutes each,,

Remember poeple are more intersted in themselves... They forgett all about me in 10 minutes..

That is why I have a God I turn to....

communication, name, face, location, details, blog, something in addition to music may also contribute to keeping people interested.
