RTP

It might not help you much ... but there's the Trump Rising track - which is ... at least electronic https://soundcloud.com/user-571754012/skeletone-trump-rising (not gonna put a huge banner on your eyes for this, that's probably not worth it)

Today I found this one just lying around on Prex' official Soundcloud account - unreleased to my knowledge ... did you know about this? and its awesome

that reminds me of:

and I feel like a fool openly said: I registered there because I wanted to get in touch with an artist (not S-Range this time, fortunately not ) ... he said to me he'd be on FB rather than on Soundcloud and I kindly ignored that at first, because I loathe FB ... I had an account with a friend in the past, called "Daswhiskeyglas" - "careful" documentation of the adventures of a Whisky tumbler, stunning pictures - and these damn fools from Facebook apparently killed that account off, it's no more, making me furious because I have no backup of the photos ... well, I loathed Facebook, loathe it to this day - but at the same time I need to get in touch with people ... so now that I kicked off this RTP RECORDS thing, I'd be a fool ignoring a direction to contact people ... so I registered there well duh, first strike to the face: you need to be ppls friend to message them ... great, would you approve a newly created account with zer0 followers? I would not = we throw out spammers on Psynews practically every few days so I tried anyways, got through in one instance - and I immediately feel like a fool because I wrote into my first chat message "cheers RTP from Psynews.org" - the software translating "Psynews.org" into a link with a huge ass banner ... well great, now I'll be probably flagged for spamming by the person I am trying to contact or maybe the chat message that contains a link, how evil, will not even go through ... at least I can understand everybody ditching a first chat message that contains a huge ass link... anyway, people, this is my site ... feel free to add me because I feel like a fool without any connections on fb https://www.facebook.com/bernd.masterman.1 cheers

So the first single (I'd call it an EP) is out: We are on Spotify, itunes (Apple Music), Amazon, Google (YouTube Music), Deezer, Insta, Napster and even Twitch ... and more This is awesome!!! This first release was mainly a test how it works - but now that I know the workings: I can safely say RTP RECORDS is "open for business" - plan is to buy single tracks from psy artists and release them this way under "Artist = RTP RECORDS" ... of course all that must be agreed upon. Cool thing though: I can literally release singular tracks. Small steps. Meaning: I'll just have a look out now to go buy my first one. And then another one. And so on. All chill and no stress and I don't have to lay out all the money for a compilation beforehand... Let's see what I can come up with Gonna update this if anything noteworthy is developing

Thanks ... let's see how this develops Regarding genres ... I would make an emphasis on the psy genre (otherwise I wouldn't post here), but I won't say it'll be exclusively that ... maybe make it a little broader and say that I would like to emphasize on "electronic".

2020-11-11 = RTP RECORDS has gone live (in fact, it really just has ) I have been often thinking about launching a label of my own. Well, these days I thought "no one lives forever" and "what am I waiting for" - so I decided: I'll just jump into it and get going. I got myself an account at a distributor to release stuff to online platforms - and yes, collect royalties. I can collect royalties. That last part wasn't even my plan, honestly, I wanted to do FREE STUFF ... but I have been writing to various companies and there seems to be NO FREE WAY how to get stuff on Spotify and all the other services - at least I never got any answers from anybody who would release anything for free - so I thought, well, "shove it" I'm gonna do it anyways and so I came up with a plan. The distibutor account costs money anyway, so I might as well use royalties to cover these expenses, it'll probably not even buy me a beer... ...nevertheless, here's the concept that I am making up in my head: I am BUYING IN TRACKS from artists - paying them with my own money. The sums must be agreed beforehand and fixed with a contract. Either I pay beforehand or we split up the royalties that trickle in - or a combination of both - as you please. These terms apply: Track must be provided - readily mastered. MP3 or WAV is possible. More formats on inquiry. Artwork can either be provided or will be done by me - consider yourself warned, I am not a good image editor RTP RECORDS is registered as an ARTIST and will release all acquired material under ONE ARTIST = RTP RECORDS Your artist name will be attempted to be packed into the song title ... it will look like: RTP RECORDS - Skeletone _ NPNK --> "RTP RECORDS" is the release institution, "Skeletone" is the artist, "NPNK" is the title. There is NO GUARANTEE you can have the titles your way The song writer of all material will always be BERND MASTERMAN - which is me. You can request being added as a songwriter and I will do that if possible, but Bernd Masterman will always be in it. That is to assure consistency. First release coming up: SKELETONE - NPNK // Absyyyyynth EP https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/rtprecords/skeletone--npnk--absyyyyynth I am doing this mainly as a test to see how it looks like - and to promote the project Skeletone If you got anything you think that is worthy of being released in this project, drop me a line. There is no website or anything yet other than this distributor thing.

In 71 days this track is likely to be history ... listen to it before it's gone Some say that they are already waiting for it to be gone ... is it really that bad of a track or do they mean the person that the title is about? Then the motto may be "Biden Rising" - but it won't be, because I don't think we ever will make political tracks anymore...

I have a remark about his "stuck in mobile version" thing. Turns out I was too (at least I think)! But I was able to zoom so far out that I practically didn't notice - only recently I realized that the navigation links at the top didn't work anmyore ... drove me mad ... almost wanted to post a bug report for myself ... then I found out that Penzo did a new default skin "Penzonews" and to that one I switched now and that fixed it So: thanks @Penzoline ... and I'm now on the default skin aswell

Hej NHJO do you also do nicknames or character names for (online) games?

Merged the double posts for you, bro ... cheers By the way. Why do you have no Wikipedia article? I didn't find one about you

Hiya ... you seem to have slow internet over there as you make double posts ... I merged them for you

naaah dude please don't drink this, it's foul stuff, seriously ... it almost made me hate Whisky, because we used to binge drink that as we were teens and I thought all Whisky would be like this stuff -- it needed a (near) miracle to convince me otherwise and really made me realize what a wonderful liquid Whisky is ... and I am not talking about binging it, rather: drink less of it, but more quality... Ah, where are my manners. To each their own. I'm not judging you. But let me just say, if Whisky was a sports car, you are currently sitting at the side of the road in idle Playing a track for you now: Ticon - It Breakz My Heart

I think NHJO is an AI ... now devoted to artist names ... but what intrigued me the most in this thread: Which "Whiskey" did you drink?

Heh, I don't have any VR equipment either - I'd get motion sick with that ... but it's an endlessly cool feeling if you watch a cool vido and suddenly you realize, wait, you can turn the screen (with the mouse). thanks for the suggestion - exactly waht I'm looking for

it sounds tempting, but if I get a software, it should be Cubase, because I want to be compatible with the software my producer friend uses - or is REAPER compatible with Cubase both ways ... that would be awesome?

Here's something I'd percieve as genreless: ...Psytrance or Trance or Tribal Industrial? By the way, I think that This Morn' Omina is way underrated on this forum ...again: what is it: Psytrance? Nah. Industrial? Nah. Genreless? Maybe. It certainly is a way to make the otherwise cheesy and bubblegum-like indian samples sound sharply on point ... and awesome, in my opinion. "Look up - and know!" there seems to be a psytrance mix of this btw, but it's on an obscure sampler and I was not able to find it till now ...and now for something completely different: ...Psychill or HipHop or TripHop? genreless!

there don't seem to be so many Found another one

I never was a big fan of digital releases. I see their purpose and it's fine that they exist, but I really want something physical. For me it was like this from day 1. We had these p2p sharing softwares back then, everybody could have mp3 (or whatever format), it did not mean anything to have an mp3 - but when I made the effort and invest my then spare money into a physical CD, that meant that I REALLY liked that release or that artist. Now the p2p stuff is long gone, but the attitude stayed the same. Digital a release is and always was too "easy" for me to be able to fully appreciate it - the digital stuff I consume in a multi-tasking-environment, I mostly do something alongside: play games, check news, read psynews. I actually get distracted a lot when listening to digital releases (I only listen to them on PC, I have no network audio player). When it's physical and I listen to it on my CD player, I can only do that, with proper focus - the CD player doesn't do news sites or psynews alongside... My brain is anchored that way - "digital is inferior". It won't change anymore. Which is why I also wrote to Iboga Records recently if they can do me a physical copy of Bakkelite v3.0 ... but unfortunately they ignore me

So today I lost my fkin' wallet... ... currently busy re-ordering all the cards and stuff - fortunately it's become a little easier to do it online, but damn this is shit I feel completely naked without it...

My thanks go to Penzo and Mars for this update. They did all the work. cheers!

cool people come back nice to see it happening
