Acoustika Blog

Some news to share with you. Some days ago I submitted the track Acoustic Dream from our CD to a site where people can download royalty free music for their podcasts. Well yesterday I received an email from the site informing me that the track was used and was given the details of where it was used.

"TruCast has played your song Acoustic Dream. Find out more about this PodShow at http://music.podshow.com/music/listeners/podshow_details.php?ShowHash=fad2382f3d3c832d29447d80048"

I downloaded the podcast and after a long speech there was my music at the very end of the podcast.

Anyway - I sent a thank you note to the author of the podcast, telling him that I added a link to his podcast blog in my podcast blog, and he replied with the following feedback:

Thanks for the great plug! I just read the post on your podcast blog and really appreciate your kind words. This song, Acoustic Dream, has an almost ethereal quality to it; I felt myself floating away as I listened to it. Simple, yet impressive. I did read on your website that your percussionist had passed away, sorry to hear about that, but I'm sure you'll find a way to pull through and keep making great music.

Saturday 11th February 2006 - I tried my hand at Podcasting. Podcasting is the art of producing radio-like "broadcasts" which one can download via a podcast reader such as Juice Podcast Receiver. The format of the file is mp3 - but there are also video podcasts.

Well I intend to produce a podcast weekly - every Saturday actually. Should you be interested in listening to them please visit http://plectrumpodcasts.blogspot.com where you will find details and instructions.

I took the opportunity to include a selection from Acoustic Dream in my first podcast but from the next one I will only include my favourite guitar music (spanish, latin or jazzy) from the vast collection that I have.

Happy listening.
