Cautari
Ideea este simpla: am compus niste muzica si incerc sa o promovez, incerc sa ma fac cunoscut, incerc sa o vand.
M-am intrebat cum ar trebui sa procedez. Prea multe mijloace nu am la dispozitie. Nu cunosc pe nimeni in domeniul productiei muzicale. Sa investesc bani la inceput pentru vreo reclama, nu e cazul. Sa angajez un agent costa.
Cel mai accesibil mod de a ma promova ramane internetul. Mi-am facut pagini pe internet. Mi-am creat blogul, am facut o pagina pe Facebook si am pus o melodie pe YouTube. Dupa care am devenit un fel de agent de vanzari directe: am incercat sa intru in legatura cu persoane care nu ma cunosc si le-am recomandat melodia.
Intre timp am incercat sa intru in legatura cu persoane din lumea muzicala. Am trimis un e-mail lui Edward Maya. Nu stiu ce sanse aveam sa fiu luat in considerare, oricum nu am primit raspuns. Am scris un comentariu pe blogul Dianei Singer, http://dianasinger.ro/. Doamna Singer avea un post de radio on-line, radio 2110 HIT. Zilele astea am vrut sa intru acolo si se pare ca exact in aceasta perioada i s-a retras licenta sau asa ceva pentru ca nu am reusit sa intru in niciun cont legat de radio, mesajul general era "Account Suspended". Deci fiasco total.
Am gasit adrese de case de discuri. Se pare ca nu este usor sa fii bagat in seama de acestea. Nu poti trimite oriunde demo-uri si nu ai garantia ca le asculta cineva, mai degraba ai garantia ca nu le asculta nimeni. Sau poate ca nu stiu eu care sunt procedurile si obiceiurile in domeniu. Am mai incercat sa ma fac cunoscut unor posturi de radio. Nu am primit inca semnale de interes.
Asa ca merg mai departe cu internetul. Credeam ca va fi simplu sa stabilesc contacte prin pagina de Facebook dar nu e asa. Avea o imagine cam idilica in meterie de retea de socializare. Credeam ca pot sa dau la nesfarsit "+1 Add Friend", dupa care primeam un raspuns pozitiv sau negativ. Dar nu e chiar asa. Am primit o interdictie de 48 de ore de a mai cauta prieteni pentru ca incerc sa ma imprietenesc cu persoane necunoscute. Am mai primit o interdictie de a comenta pe alte pagini de facebook pentru ca se pare ca am comentat prea mult?!
Nu este o situatie prea incurajatoare. In cazul asta, cum mai pot reactiona ca sa ma promovez? Imi mai raman blogul si pagina de YouTube. Melodia a avut parte de vizualizari peste asteptari, daca ma gandesc ca sunt la inceput. Dar nu am primit comentarii, nici de bine, nici de rau. Asta mi se pare sub asteptari si cam dezamagitor. Chiar si un comentariu nefavorabil inseamna ceva mai mult decat indiferenta.
Ce trebuie sa fac in continuare? Planuri, cautari si sa merg inainte.

Starting
By the end of 2008 I was a mechanical designer. I had plenty of achievements in the field: I worked in various sectors: automotive, marine, construction, design sites for mobile phones, furniture and more. I had the pleasure to work on projects for Ferrari or Queen Mary 2.
But in early 2009, the owner of where I worked told us that the company suspends their activities because the owner can not ensure it.
Since then I've looked for work in the field, but I found nothing paid to my competence and personal value. So I bought in parallel computer music creation programs: FL Studio 9, Groove Agent 3 and Music Creator 5.
I did it because I have many ideas that I want to implement and because I think I'm endowed with exceptional creativity and originality. The most difficult part was to learn to use the resources of musical creation programs. But after nearly two years of work in the field, I began to conceive various musical creations. I reunited some of the musical creations in my first album, which I called "LIFE".
"LIFE" is a coherent album, in which each song is meant to be, in chronological order, a specific moment of our existence. I would say that I don't belong to a particular music trend. That's why this album has very diverse songs which are orchestrated differently, some are more dense, others are simple, some are fast, others calm. If I had to define my musical style, I would call it "rhythm & feeling" or "total integration".
In my opinion, life came from passion and love. Therefore, "Passion" is the first song. It's a rhythmic song, that grows in intensity towards the end.
The passion is followed by birth and "Childhood", the first years of life. This song has a main line accompanied by a very simple rhythm. Main melodic line is composed of ideas that succeed without recuring to suggest assimilation of new experiences over time, to suggest emotions and feelings followed by reaching new levels.
"Youth" is a rhythmic and dense song. The song tries to convey the pleasure of living and the intense emotions that are specific to this age.
"Electronic Age" is a version of the previous song. Electronics and computer are very present in our lives, so I introduced the electronic version of the song.
With the transition to adulthood comes the crystallisation of certain ideas and concepts in our consciousness. From my point of view, "Freedom", "Equality" and "Fraternity" are three fundamental concepts of our social life, three ideals and three obligations for a modern, regular and fair society. That's why I designed this triptych music that I care about very much and that I think defines my personality.
But time passes and we advance in age, so the next song is called "Going Forward". Based on rhythm and guitar, this song tries to describe moments of life and time passing by.
The following three songs, "Corsa Dance", "Fantasy" and "Walzing Guitar", are trying to describe the pleasure of living as adult. Tastes and preferences are crystallizing, the power of understanding increases, so I introduced these three songs with very different rhythms and orchestrations.
The tumult of our life is accompanied by moments of silence or the desire to relax. This emotional state is played by the song "Silence".
"I do not care" represents a fulfilled life, rich in achievements, a bohemian conscience, somewhat detached from the world and that looks towards the past with modest superiority.
"False Melancholy" stands for the first sensations of an older age, which still keeps alive the image of youth.
Finally, "Tic-Tac" represents the moment of uncertainty before the great final. It's a dramatic song, with sad but great emphasis, composed in classical style.
