Yeah, but who even said these nice things about your record? Your mom?! These quotes are totally, totally pointless, and because he doesn't even tell us who is supposed to have said these comments, how do we know he didn't just write them all himself?!

Once again - audio clips are the way forward =)
yes, at least they should mention who left these quotes....

If I see Magda's name on the list of DJ support I'll generally check the track out. As I find I have very similar taste.

actually i dont like this promosystem where you listen before you download, how are you suppose to give feedback when you can't even mix the tunes or listen where you want?

i hatealso hate listening by streaming, and usually all those kind of flashplayers are dodgy programmed also :(

never listen to stuff on myspace anymore because of this..

its all facebooks fault!

thing is, i rec this board is for the music heads, so its unlikley that anyone here would care about dj feedback as they'll be set on defining themselves as an artist with their own sound and not wanting to copy or play too many big tracks for whatever reason. The dj feedback i think is more aimed at the HMV dj no? people that are new to the scene and are fairly clueless, they see such an such dj playing it and go seek it out because as we all know immatation is usualy a stepping stone on the road to finding ones sound. Also I think record shops would use the feedback on their blurb to flog the wax too. Sorry if any of this has been said b4 but i couldnt be arsed to read the whole thread thru, jus my 2 pence :)
