Oops!

No offense, but I should have specified that I do NOT wish to receive information about new music from the authors of that music. No self-promotion please! Also, no information from labels, please!

I can google with the best of them, if I want new musicians without reference to endorsement or new releases from labels I can just google, I do not need self-promotion.

I want to know what composers other composers are listening to! Help!

Sheesh, you'd think I would be less naive!

Regards,
Mike
