I have plans for a downloadsite of my own, some of my colleagues have the knowledge (but not the time) pay with paypall, and a price of 6 euroo of an album would be enough.
but this is future music at the moment

Give me a Cd/Cdr release direct from the artists over downloads anyday. Why not contact the artist directly and ask for a cdr Maybe we "artists" will burn it ourself and bring it to the postoffice. But I think MusicZeit would not be happy as we advertise with that. And burning the flac to a cdr will give the same But asking is for free..... ;D Problem for me is when I have more than 10 requests I would not have the time to make music Oh and I do not have a cd printer, and no paperprint on the cdr

also true but isn't it always the way that the middlemen make the money Give me a Cd/Cdr release direct from the artists over downloads anyday. There are some nice things on Musiczeit but i object to having to pay crazy money in my book for a download. If i feel this way then i'm sure others do as well and the artists as well as the fan/listener both lose out. Also SMD/Groove etc do themselves no favours by pricing Cd's way to high so that the customer thinks "i won't bother paying all the money to buy it when i can download it for free" They then go looking for it for free and hey it's Christmas because they find a load more music from said artist for free!! I'm pretty much right with you on this, I'd rather pay extra for a ready made item than download it myself & make the whole thing from scratch & pay for the privillage. We put the Christmas download out as a "Thank You" to those who have put their hands in their pockets enough times for us & because we put it out for free, it meant that no one should have to pay for it (unless someone wants to pay some Russian for something they could've got for free if they had bothered to check our website last month, in which case, they weren't much of a fan & more fool them for parting with their money) Rest assured, the "Download Only" releases like "Broken Bits" & "Limited Access 1 & 2" are only on Musiczeit as a reminder that we are still here & our Concert Limited Editions will continue & an official CD will be pressed (possibly a double) in the back end of the year (just negotiating a price with the pressing plant at the moment).

A review for the Dutch Space Mission album Cosmic Grunn by Sylvian Lupari: ------------------------------------------------------ Bonjour Here it goes, hope my English is ok DUTCH SPACE MISSION Morphic intro which stagnates in a space broth, The Sky Is Crying is very representative of Dutch Space Mission works. A slow opening which is twisting idly on cosmic sounds effect. A black and cold cosmos pierced by a noisy spaceship, but paralyzed by a speed that eyes cannot catch. The obscure undulating layers create an oblong cosmic ballet, girdled of fine sequences arpeggios which flit around with a progressive hammering cadence. Heavy sequential lines, à la Redshift, carve this static linear movement, which winds with strength this cosmos which rage more than cry. The music of the Dutch duet Dutch Space Mission embraces the long gliding movements of the beginning of the 70’s. EM with heavy and slow development always ends up on hopping, undulating and magnetizing sequential movements. A mixture of Tangerine Dream on Zeit years and Keller Schonwalder on a more contemporary time. Cosmic Grunn, the title track, opens with this same driving wind chime on dark and metal waves. A black and atonal intro which is lulling from its reverberating waves, waiting for Von Haulshoven sequences to animate the movement with agility and charm, behind an analog cosmos of the 70’s. Remark here the guitar play which clears languorously under minimalisms sequences and heavy wrapping layers. A superb piece of EM, style retro Berlin School, which gathers all ingredients of the great names of the time, such TD, Schulze and Ashra. The Dream Experiment is a long title with various sonorous passages. Sometimes noisy and atonal, the piece develops heavy circular reverberations which oscillate in hostile nothingness, pushing the hearing at its maximum tolerance. In other moments the movement is magic, even peaceful, with a melodious synth and of fine hopping sequences. A musical Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde which can please of his variegated and undisciplined structure, but which can also have its aggressive sides with its heavy circular reverberations and a metallic synth colder than Siberia. This caustic synth opens Floating Stones. A marvelous title which smells Steve Roach tribal structures, with a cosmic and a more electronic approach. Tablas’s percussions are superbly suggestive and marry with wonder a chameleon synth, to mellotron breaths, on a invading musical background. Dutch Space Mission is a particular group. Do not like this Dutch duet which wants. Von Haulshoven and Phrozenlight explore very progressive musical structures, even if the roots of Berlin School are omnipresent, with an aggressive approach, even if the structures can be morphic, in a surprisingly rich sound flood. Me I liked, but I heard it more than once…. Sylvain Lupari from Guts Of Darkness The French Magazine of Dark & Experimental Music ------------------------------------------------------ Thanks Sylvian Bert & Eppie (Dutch Space Mission)
