Kim's I knew about, Downtown Music Gallery I just visited for the first time a couple of weeks ago, because of an article about record stores in the NY Times.

By the way, what are you up to these days? Especially, in the way of music?

Regards,
Mike

You know, I'm the poor idiot who responded to that post in good
faith.  Someone asked where I found new music, and I gave an
honest response.  I'm not a 'label', just some misguided fool
who believes in his own music.  I've tried to be helpful on this
list, and indeed on the largely neglected [by this list]
Csounds.com website, but if everything I can contribute can be
summed up as 'spam', I guess I'm done.

I agree with you. I did not notice any spam in the responses (well maybe 
I'm being dense). So don't worry :) I do not see anything wrong about 
letting one's own stuff be known, especially when it's specifically 
asked for. It's just a pity that good faith is not assumed unless proven 
absent.

Bruce,

I have enjoyed your links, your music, your questions....

None of it has been SPAM - at all....

You will discover that the csound list and cSounds.com forums - go  
through phases where
we are very quick to respond and advise - and where we are drowning  
in exams, deadlines,
divorces, heart attacks, etc.....

I, for one, appreciate your input, suggestions, questions, and  
contributions.

So....

Hope you do stick around.

-dB
