A few weeks ago I found out about a new music hosting site called Bandcamp; as these are a dime a dozen these days I didn’t really pay it any heed. At some point I decided to look into things a little further, and the service they offer is pretty great. You upload a lossless file, and they put it into all different sorts of formats for you (mp3, ogg, flac, apple lossless). And you can sell tracks with them as well! From now on I’ll be using their service as my music page. (Just gotta figure out what I’m gonna do for posting up mixtapes as they’re not really set up for such things..)
My favorite part about that is how you can sell tracks on a donation basis, á la Radiohead and probably at least 40% of all the DIY punk house shows I’ve ever attended. I’ll be posting up a lot on there for free but also using it for all of my digital EP/LP releasing (new stuff on the way!).
Semi-related, I just finished up on my Love Lockdown remix. After Kanye posted up the studio stems (industry jive talk for tracked out sections of a song; ie vocals, drums, keys etc. all in their own audio files) I had to go back and expand upon my original ideas.

Oh and, there’s a crazy bonus track over in my music section I won’t mention here (yet). Well I guess aside from that—go check it out!
