Hey, welcome back! Nice to hear you again. I'm right there with you on the deadline/creative process thing. Neat about the spotify success. Bouncy and light track, a real toe tapper. Sweet! Keep it up.

Ah yes, this track has the Cosmic Cairns DNA - the rubber sythn has a lot of innocent energy, there is a nice positive vibe all around and we have the guitar making an appearance! Take it easy and at your pace! Looking forward to more of your poetic tracks this year!

Howdy, welcome back! Glad to see you here. I had a similar 2023, in terms of not releasing much. Not the spotify streams, that's awesome. Maybe an editor put it on a playlist? Or keywords? Is there a Taylor Swift song with those words perhaps?
This was a jolly entrance. Catchy. Was waiting for your voice, I will wait and here in future weeks no doubt!

Hi! I am so glad to hear from you. It feels more like a thousand years ago. This opener is definitely played in the lovely and unique handwriting of yours. I canˋt wait to hear you sing… btw I am very interested in the humming recordings you did.

Hey they finally fixed the quote button so I can reply! Sweet!

Thanks for being my first official comment of WB 2024!  2023 went by in the blink of an eye.  I'm sure 2024 will be fast, too, but hopefully we can savor it a little bit.

  Thanks!  And likewise!

  Welcome back to you, as well!  I swear I used to be a little more self-motivated when it came to making this music but after 5 rounds of Weekly Beats I think I've trained myself to need the deadline.  Thanks for listening!

Thanks!  Yeah, the random blowup was an unexpected surprise, but I will definitely take it.

Thanks!  It's fun when you can get those overlapping melodies to work!

Sounds like a fun video game!  The vast majority of my songs have decided they would prefer to remain unheard, but it's cool that this one wanted to put itself out there. 

Thanks!  I hope to be her all year, so hopefully plenty more stuff coming.  And likewise, look forward to checking out more of your stuff as well.

Happy 2024 to you as well and thanks!  Yeah, definitely just going to progress at whatever pace feels comfortable.  I'm sure some more poetic stuff will come, but not feeling up to it just yet.

  Thank you kindly.  It's always nice to make a good entrance.

Thanks!  It certainly is nice to indulge in the fun and cheerful vibe when I can.

Good to see you back as well!  The spotify track was a very unexpected surprise, but cool as well.  It'll be interesting to see if it keeps going.  Thanks for listening!

Thank you!  I will do my best to keep at it!

Thanks!  Yeah, it's getting some traffic from confused Swifties.  I was curious if there was something about the title that was related to something else.  The track originally took off in Brazil so I thought maybe there was something there that I had accidentally tapped into, but I did a bunch of google searches and couldn't figure anything out.  It remains a mystery, but a pleasant one.  I've been sick to start out the year, so it might be a little bit before my voice makes an appearance, but it'll come.

Thanks!  Some good positive vibes are always appreciated for sure.

Gotta strut your way in sometimes.

Me too!  I ended 2022 with a track called Exit, so it only seemed appropriate to start 2024 with an Entrance.

Thanks!  Singing will be coming eventually, but my throat has been sore from being sick so it'll probably be a week or two before I feel up to it.  The humming recordings are mostly melodic snippets or riffs that popped into my head when I was out and about.  I hummed them into my phone so I wouldn't forget them.  I'm sure I'll dig through some of them this year and develop them into actual songs.

Thanks!  Prior to the unexpected blowup, I probably had about 20 total streams, if that.  I have no idea how to get anyone's attention on a track or I would do it more often!

Thanks!  It is an intriguing mystery.  I've tried to google around to see if I could figure out an explanation, but I still have no idea.  At least it's a pleasant surprise, for a change.  Hope 2024 treats you well also!

Thanks!  And happy new year!

I like this very much. Major chords are underrated...this has some lovely early Kraftwerk vibes somehow. Which is high praise in my book...

Yeah, same here for 2023.  Couldn't get myself to crank anything out but oh well, hopefully that will leave a lot of energy for this year.  Congrats on the Spotify traction though, that's awesome!

Nice first track of the year, it's definitely your style.  Looking forward to 2024!

Thanks for the awesome gif!

I will gladly take an early Kraftwerk comparison.  Thanks!

I think I've gotten too used to the Weekly Beats way of doing things and it's become tough for me to maintain the discipline during off years.  Hopefully that does mean extra energy for this year though.

welcome to 2024!
6k streams!  congrats that is so rad

welcome to 2024! 6k streams! congrats that is so rad <3

Thanks!  It's actually surpassed 7k now.  The streams aren't coming in at quite the rate they were in November and December, but I still seem to be getting a few trickling in every day.  It'll be interesting to see how long this continues, since I don't know how people found it in the first place or how they're continuing to find it.

COSMIC CAIRNS THE ERAS TOUR ERA 1: HOW DID I GET SO FAMOUS?

LOL!  It truly is a mystery though.  Whenever I actually try to promote something I get greeted by crickets chirping and tumbleweeds blowing through the room.  Don't try and I get 7k streams on Spotify.  I don't get it.
