I hope tiesto/Armin's team plays your tracks. These are better what Benno made in his recent productions.

Some really nice stuff on here! Favourites of the previously unreleased ones are Ultimo, Exploration 2000 and Sol Eterno, and for the released I'll throw Awaken Your Passion into there too.
Sol Eterno for me gives me strong Destination Sunshine vibes with the key and snippets of melody coming in at the start, not sure if that was intent but I know Sven and Johan Gielen were both part of that and you're big fans of them! And the pitch change at the end was also unexpected but cool!
With Amor Del Pasado I wasn't initially sure on Jan's vocals at first as I felt it didn't have like the unique rememberable lyrics of Jan's tracks like Flesh and Merge, but after listening to it more I think it actually does and she definitely still has it

They won't. We're not part of their club/ label group, Ask yourself why would they? when they can support a myriad of other artists that are
"supporting the small indy label scene" sounds nice and all but in the end its a bad business model. You have to get very lucky to make it through their radioshow catalogue these days as a outsider.

You'd think Armin would still want to hear and play good music, and give that to people too. There's no way he's liking the majority of what he plays anyway, and there's plenty of room for stuff like this. This record is a clear step up from the rest of the trance released in this part of the genre, so it's head scratching as to why it wouldn't get played out. At least Solarstone is giving it a shot, I assume?

Thanks for the kind words, but the reason stands, same goes for rich. If you run a label and have a bom full release schedule/ own artists to maintain aswell as keeping good terms with the “big network”.
ánd you get spam promo’d daily.. then like said you just have to get lucky any track gets a single play or even feedback
even if you’re a regular artist on his labels heh

Exactly.Ive got remixes of tracks that have hundreds of thousands of plays,even millions,and the original artists have probably NEVER heard them
You are actually,I think, a prime example of how you can successfully build your own thing instead of networking yourself into something existing.

I'm wondering if @Julian Del Agranda unblocked me, so he can see my awesome super-trooper ratings

No I did not, but you’re not invisible, as the forum just hides posts and then you can still click on ‘read’ and see the post anyway.I'm wondering if @Julian Del Agranda unblocked me, so he can see my awesome super-trooper ratings
As for dj support. The problem is: if you complain, that doesn’t help you. Because it’s about the people you hope to get support from, right?
But Jetflag is right 100%, pretty much all djs that we sent promos to - in short clean enthusiastic emails - don’t listen to the tracks at all. Zero plays on SoundCloud.
And even then, there’s names who I’d think could easily play an Agranda track, as it’s right up their alley. But never do. Some tell me they love a track, but never play it. Some will say they will play a track on Lumi, but don’t. There’s a lot of friendliness with the goal of possible benefit later.
So it’s difficult, but it is what it is.

he liked it, and John (dopping) even send a mail congratulating getting this album out.
we did get some good feedback in return don’t get me wrong, but there’s a difference in that and “big jock radio support”

Surely Rich will play some of these tracks? I assume hes played quite a lot of Aerium material before aswell youve sent him?

I've never done anything to you. Your behavior is very strange. I do like most of your work, but as a person, I don't really understand you...
