Humble Voice - The best community for art, photography, music, video and writing

Send In The Clowns

Much to my chagrin, it appears Raven Studioz DK is totally incapable and inept at maintaining 'artistic integrity'. As much as painters, photgraphers, and other creators here would not want to see their damaged goods displayed in a gallery or exhibit. And if damage was detected at a event, I'm sure many here would want a explanation, apology, and some kind of effort so as to not have a 'big gap' on the wall. Without little or no explanation, or apology from RS Records - I'm faced to look at a 'gap on the wall' with a shrug to comfort me. They are not to be trusted or respected in any way IMHO. As much as I would like to get my work to as many as possible, and be compensated to continue on with freedom and expressivity, it won't be furthered with RS Records. For those that do search and/or purchase my albums on Amazon.com et al, I certainly appreciate your interest and support. And I profusely apologise for some of it's appearance. Which is considered 'damaged goods that happened in transit' by the label, and have coldy exonerated themselves from.
Totally missing the fact that 'art and artists' is and are sensitive. Be it Renoir to Warhol, Adams to Maplethorpe, Salinger to King. Be it 'important' to 'underground'. Beautiful to 'weird'. Loved by some, hated by millions. The artist alone should be given every oppurtunity to be fully understood, witnessed, and supported. RS Records DK are totally void of that I find, and offer no recourse other than shallow pandering and complete disassociation. The 'Worst Gallery In The World' if you will. My testimony, for what it's worth.

On the plus side, I will try to focus my efforts here once again. It may take some time after this ordeal. But for the passing curious, and true fans that 'get it' I shall continue to deliver my creativity as best as I can give it. Van Gogh Don't Go, and I shall remain. Here, and everywhere. :)

Geopoliticking Is Here. It's Clear. Get Used To it!

After much deliberation, I have finally allowed witness to my CD Geopoliticking here at Humble Voice. No $.79 per song, no 'pay what you feel it's worth', no plastic waste onto the environment. Simply a virtual CD that exists amongst real concerns here. The CD is a conceptual journey, so I hope at some point many will listen from start to finish. And hopefully that doesn't scare many off thinking 'another prog rock opus with gongs after 45 minutes...' The songs are actually bite size pop tunes, but do degrade over time. Something for everyone, and no one gets out alive. So to speak. Counter revolution wise - Speak to so.

My utmost thanks to Paul D. Richmond for enlightening me on the merits and fine people here at Humble Voice.
For further enlightment of my music career, this CD, plus a plethora of other outstanding talent and topics, I urge
you to visit http://www.humblevoice.com/ZRS The segments are rather lengthy, so High Speed or better is advised.
And the CD would not be possible without the outstanding talents of Tolga and Holly Uz, Alexander James, Jodi
Krangle, Synapse Audio, and the never ending talent that frequent KVR, EX5tech, and all the OMD dot coms in
the world.

Enjoy, Remember, and Respond. It's YOUR future!
