Indie Launchpad Podcasts

Finally back from vacation with a newly recorded podcast. While we were away, our dog Kooper unfortunately passed away. He was 15 and a half and very much a part of our family. I can't believe I got his name wrong in the podcast, but with Kosmo being our previous dog, I suppose I've been thinking of him a lot too. Our holiday in Curacao was great. Certainly a destination for you to check into if y...

Recorded shortly after the previous podcast, hence why I still have a bit of a cold. Trying to get two podcasts recorded before vacation, so apologies for any slapdashedness. I did notice there were a few tracks that have a long pause at the end. I would usually edit before posting, but I don't want to invite anything that would have me ending up going down a time rabbit hole, so again apolog...

Battling a cold, but I managed to get through the show. As I mentioned if you're a band and you don't have a website, please get one. Be sure to include your tour/gig information. If you do have one, make sure you keep this information up to date. A reminder that if you are on Indie Launchpad you can claim your artist page and then use that to keep your fans updated. You can also register a domain...

There were a few intermittent clicks on the previous podcast. I've actually moved to another machine and changed the cable, and initial tests seem favourable, but like always I will listen to the episode once it's released and do some further quality control. Some fantastic music as always on this weeks episode. Just a reminder, don't forget to check out the artists you love, and pick up a single...

An eclectic mix of tracks this week. Lots of changes on Indie Launchpad. Artists can now add styled logo and also background. There's also a new news section. All comments on reviews and podcasts are threaded, which hopefully promotes conversation. All these extra features require a free Indie Launchpad account, which you can create here.

Well done England. It was a great performance against France and well done to Spain, who thoroughly deserved to win the World Cup. Still tinkering on my Podabra software. Just about to release version 2.8. A reminder you can now create an account on Indie Launchpad, allowing you to comment and rate the release yourself. Soon I'll be adding the ability to comment on the podcasts, so it will be a go...

Apologies for the volume glitches in last week's podcast. Still ironing out some kinks in my Podabra podcast software, which as always is available free to use at website I discussed a few of the current pitfalls I think artists are falling into. I made a post a little while ago, which I'll link to here. Track # Artist Name Song Title EP or Album Release Name 1 Grace Miller Moody LEAN Single LEAN...

Apologies. Looks like the podcast feed was defaulting to the old location for podcasts. It's now fixed, but due to the way the RSS feeds work, I've reposted again, just to ensure everyone is able to listen. I'll be sure to double check this for future podcasts. Happy Fathers Day to all my fellow Dad's. I hope you had/are having. a great day with your family. I finally got a new microphone, but had...

Happy Fathers Day to all my fellow Dad's. I hope you had/are having. a great day with your family. I finally got a new microphone, but had a bit of a blip when my first segment didn't record, so I had to do a quick edit and splice in the missing bit. Hope it's relatively seamless. As I always like to mention, don't forget to give all of the bands you like your support. Streaming is good, ubt buyin...

Apologies. Looks like playing the podcast through the web is fine, but there was an issue with the podcast feed. Now fixed. The first of hopefully many singles focused podcasts, to hopefully get more music in your ears and to raise awareness of the many, many artists not yet featured in Indie Launchpad and also those that have. More new features added to Indie Launchpad, which you can access with...

So back from the UK where the weather was gorgeous. My daughter had a great time, but was more happy with a drink in her hand, or chatting to her Grandad, so not too many sites seen. Lots of new developments at Indie Launchpad, where you can now create your own user account and mark reviews as favourites and also rate them yourself, which goes towards an community rating. Lots more existing new st...

As always some great music, from a wide variety of artists. As you're listening to this, I'll again be in the UK, this time for the previously organised trip with one of my daughters, which will be her first time on UK soil. should be a good one and a good opportunity to catch up with friends and family.

As always some great music, from a wide variety of artists. Apologies for the quality of my voice. My main microphone decided to play up and I had to use my backup. Will have it all sorted for next time. Recorded after a recent trip to the UK, this episode includes some personal reflections following my mum’s passing. I also mention some of my go to listening while travelling, including Nothingnes...

Third time lucky with the podcast this month. I listened back and the audio on my voice is OK. I;ll get to the bottom of the issues I had and will continue to refine and add new features to Podcast Creator, which is soon to be known as Podabra. In the meantime you can play with Podcast Creator at this link https://onlinedevutils.com/podcastcreator Track # Artist Name Song Title EP or Album Release...

Some slight technical hitches, including the podcast for many only being 18 minutes long. No hopefully fixed. Great to be back, Indie Launchpad has been back 7 months and finally it's time to get the podcast up and running. Hard to believe that 13 years have passed since the last podcast. As mentioned in the podcast, I'm using a new program I created to record the podcast. Still a few te...

Great to be back, Indie Launchpad has been back 7 months and finally it's time to get the podcast up and running. Hard to believe that 13 years have passed since the last podcast.

Anyway good to be back...
