Dude, everyone has it quite rough on the audio portal. The flash portal authors have no idea about how lucky they are, evading stuff like zero- or status-bombing, and being able to express themselves way more easily because it's a whole lot easier to place experimental movies than audio (I personally have no trouble with this, my submissions so far are in no way experimental OR progressive).

About the feedback problem- the only solution is the audio forum. Every time that you submit a song, make a post about it in the Audio Advertisements thread, this tends to help a lot, especially if you add a short description of the work you're promoting. Put links to your latest song in your forum signature and make a couple of well-written posts to intrigue the other forum regulars, and they might check it out.

Also, the other option is WRITING reviews- it's a small chance, but about 10% of the audio population will actually return the favor of reviewing should they find your comment helpful, or at least useful (you could also mention "btw, if you have time, check out some of my stuff"). From time to time, open the audio portal. Choose 5 song titles you find to your liking, check them out and comment. Besides, writing audio reviews gives you a good feeling in the end, because you can know you've given assistance (or at least encouragement) to someone who is probably trying just as hard as you.

thanks for the advice.

this entry was also something of a test to see how much attention people pay to the entries, and to see if it'd be worthwhile making entries about new song posts. apparently, its a very good idea as you have both replied to it and mentioned that i should be making posts.

thanks again

its a robot :3

'tis a robot, of sorts.

it's the only visually appealing thing i can draw consistently... :(
