Thanks man! Makes sense when you put it like that :-)

i listen to TONS of new music still, it's never  been better

all cool. you should never force yourself or others into listening to good music. good music finds you automatically! I too barely listen to any stuff and I am not visiting music festivals or concerts that often anymore because it's nothing new and exciting to me anymore. sometimes it is but not as much as 3 year ago. even with weeklybeats I have to take some days until I am "ready" to listen to some tracks and comment. but that's perfectly fine. nobody expects you to comment or anything. the project is about you and the improvement of your skills and nothing else. fame actually has nothing to do in the world of creativity! it is just an unnecessary side effect.

I'm not going to stop until everybody hears my work.  And I mean everybody. Like, it'll have to be mandatory in schools and hospitals.

haha

if necessary.

And kill ourselves?

I'm going by the program, my program that downloads everything (almost the same as the one that downloads for the torrents), I'm currently on week 13 sorting out which songs I'll keep with me for a long time, by this rate I'm going to need a whole year listening to everything, which I guess is fine if this is going to be a once-every-other-year thing.

There are a few of tracks of mine that I wish I could flag as 'don't listen, EVER! (rough week) or something'
Where as some I would flag as would love request for comment...

Perhaps we could all write our own tracks here, and request for comment on the ones were most interested in hearing feedback about??

I've done quite a few throw-away tracks but I've also done tracks I'm kinda happy with .... but with zero comment...
Perhaps theres others with a similar mindset.

A concentrated track-exchange program

Oh yeah, I do that too.

i admit that i skip tracks on here if they don't captivate me within literally the first few second of the track. i don't have the time to listen to every track but i at least give each one a chance.

i never get burned out on listening to music, i'm pretty hardcore about that. i do get a little burned out on having to make a new track every week though. but it has been good for me and i am developing my skills quite a bit, like going to year long college for sound.

Not what I meant... I'm just saying I'm surprised by my own reaction to so much new music.

i've always thought having tally system regarding how many people listened to your track would be a good idea. 

anyway, i've just uploaded my contribution for the week.  gonna get back on it and dig deep for a little more effort!

Never. This is an awesome way to exchange and discover new artists. I've came across some really great pieces of work on here, and I'm just eager to listen to some more every week.
