Listening to "Zombie Tragedy". It is fuckin' dancy as hell.
Last night, in Hamburg, Xania received an email from the dude from Capsule; two weeks after officially signing with them and being the "featured artist".
He said that the label has to fold. No more Capsule. Thereby, our brief flirtation with a record label (albeit, a digital label) is over. Back to square one.
And we are BAD when it comes to digital stuff. Yeah, we have a website, myspace, facebook group, but our tunes STILL aren't on itunes, rhapsody, or any of these places. It's silly. We have to get our stuff up online... and soon! But when it comes to that side of what we're doing, We're both really bad at it. We're struggling to get by on the road, making peanuts from gig to gig, with really no idea how we will continue to survive, and we haven't taken care of the basics: having music for sale etc.
We stayed with a chap named Robert in Hamburg who was giving us basic (and good) advice about sites we could tackle to get our tunes out there etc. And at this point, we REALLY need to. Our new album is pretty dancey and has the potential of getting good exposure, on dance floors and off... but we have to look at all our different avenues to get exposure/ play and sales.
It's hard to get ourselves in that mindset, but it has to happen.
Anyway, it is a sunny day. We're on the autoban en route to Offenbach am Main for our show at Hafen 2. I'm struggling with inner demons and Xania is making CDs in the backseat. All is well.
More soon...
