Let them eat cake.
FEATURED TRACK: 07. "Single Quotes"
Here it is: the very first Track of the Week. Free for y'all to download, that's free as in beer or exactly zero euros:
1) Download the track and, while you're at it, the rest of 'em as well.
2) Spread the word! Put it on your friend's MP3 player (whether they want you to or not), play it on your local radio station 'til the cows come home, or just burn a couple of copies to CD and leave them on some random benches in your local park. Whatever's your style; you're the opinion leader. The only rule is: like it? Then make sure as many people as possible get to hear it too.
3) Please, tell me what you think! I'm not easily offended; however, I'm very easily amused. So don't be afraid.
Oh yeah, I'd almost forget: I intend for this to be a weekly recurring thing where I post the MP3 of one of the album's tracks along with a little blurb describing what the song is about, or a little useless fact of some sort. All the tracks can be downloaded now anyway, so that's not the point, but this allows me to capitalise on my own hype a bit more - see, I'm honest like that. So here goes:
As might be expected, this little adventure is accompanied by an easy-as-pie three step plan:Wolkenvelden - Single Quotes (5MB MP3)

NL readers: wonder what the fuss is all about? Come figure out yourself on Friday April 22 at de Boerderij! No cover charge, it's all free like mp3. Also, feedback is incredibly welcome, in Dutch or English, as goes without saying.Some time after breaking up with my old girlfriend, I got involved with a girl whose name differed from my ex's by only two letters. Not necessarily a problem, but (if you're anything like me) a good source of paranoia: what if I were to dial the wrong number by accident? I tried to minimise the chance of an awkward phone call by putting an apostrophe in front of my ex's entry in my mobile's phone book. Funny, I thought, how symbolism can be found in something as mundane as a punctuation mark. So I built upon the real-life story, and it became Single Quotes, a song about love and punctuation (partly inspiring the album's title) and about my many vain attempts in placing dots over every "i".
