'hearthis' v 'soundcloud' and transfer of audio files

[Guest Carl Dixon]

I heard that SoundCloud is having some issues and may cease. A colleague, Hugh Williams has recommended 'Hearthis' as an alternative. They have a handy 'import' facility which I used to transfer all my Bandtraxs 'Soundcloud' files with meta data into the 'Hearthis' service as a back up. My Bandtraxs accounts on both showcase my main releases whether digital or vinyl plus promos which I am now doing on every new release. Just as important, work in progress prior to official release like 'One piece of cake', 'Dear Tammi' both earmarked for The Delgonives and 'You ain't changed' which is a collaboration with Johnny Boy. 

'One piece of cake' - the instrumental 'sweet mix' seems to be receiving some positive attention. This 8 track release with various mixes is out soon. I have had 5 vinyl pre-orders even though I was not really considering a pressing. I may crowd fund for the vinyl if I do it. So feel free to appraise the track below etc. Think 60's soul, Detroit, sax, Junior Walker, blue eyed soul (on the vocal). Let me know if this is the sort of thing that would be desirable on a 45rpm format:-

The rumour was that Soundcloud would have been closed on Friday, but is still active.
