It's true. I'm now on Sound Cloud:

http://soundcloud.com/orphi-the-awekid

So far I've uploaded almost everything in my back catalogue which 
doesn't infringe somebody else's copyright. (I.e., hardly any of it.)

Now I just need to start producing some music actually worth listening to...

This has generated literally no excitement at all.

So far this week, I've had 6 plays, all from Poland. *sigh*

...and /this/ week, 70% of the activity came from Finland. And 70% of 10 
plays isn't a very big number.

Either I'm doing a really bad job of promoting this, or my stuff just 
sucks so much nobody wants to listen.

PS. I always think that websites where the "sign up" button is more 
prominent than the "sign in" button have confidence issues...

I think it's safe to assume promotional difficulty.  Raising a signal above the
noise level on the internet is a non-trivial task.

If you'd like, I can ask a real-life musicologist for a professional opinion on
the suckage level.  :)

The first track up, "Distant Lands (V2)", reminds me a lot of Tangerine Dream.
(I still have most of their older catalog on vinyl.)

Why don't you record a video of yourself dressed as Lady Gaga playing the organ
and post it on youtube?

if you're really good, it may even turn into a meme.

Because I can't play t- oh wait, DRESSED AS? Yeah, I could do that. 
(Once I look up what that means...)

Don't you mean "if you're really awful"?

Up to a certain point the the "really bad" bits overflow back to "really 
good".

Obviously it's the former, because one cannot find out whether your 
stuff sucks or not unless one hits "play" ;-)
