you putting them down on a EP/LP anytime soon? might not be a bad idea to do some good mastering and make a demo tape to get out there.. the possibilities are endless once you can have a hardcopy of the music and people arnt just relying on internet and live shows(?) also im not sure how the local music is in your area but get out to local bars and clubs and just get exposure. ive seen more and a few bands and dj's get a few people who goto all their shows, and end up getting more and more ppl into it, before you know it your getting paid to perform. then you can sell a few cd's... might be able to stumble across a small lable to get you moving in that direction if you really wana persue it. ive been working with a buddy of mine getting some guitar/drum tracks down. it could be going alot better as we dont have a bass/keyboard or singer who wants to go in the same direction as us and as commited, but damn its fun to make some beats i actually wana hear.

edit: how are you doing your music? sounds a little like fruity loops but the piano in the latest song for instance dosnt sound like a clip? are you doing all the beats yourself? its not bad man.. the more songs i listen to the more i like. my only suggestion would be to look into mastering the vocals in there a bit cleaner, im sure its hardware related with just using a decent mic or mic port(i had terrible results using my "stock" mic input for recording guitar through, but i bought a $200 recording card with 4 pairs of 1/4 jacks and 2 mic inputs along with good software it sounds 100x better as far as recording quality), the music sounds clean however the vocals are coming out a bit distorted. keep going at it though man...

just had another thought.. it could be as simple as gettong one of those screens for in front of the mic to aviod the hard "P's" and "S's". ive been listening to a buddies album thats been getting mastered over the past 2 months so its what i listen for now in home recordings.
