Through a portal by the odd name &lsquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/distrokid.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DistroKid<\/a>&lsquo;, I&rsquo;ve been able to distribute tracks and albums to all the major streaming platforms eg Spotify (<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/5x5cnIW1sG58moHHohbsIl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here&rsquo;s<\/a> the first uploaded track), iTunes etc. If you use any of these services, you can find this stuff by searching for &lsquo;Sid Thomas&rsquo; &ndash; being aware that there&rsquo;s at least one other person by this name, who it seems produces guitar-based Christian songs. To clear out the cupboard I&rsquo;ll be uploading a lot of material that&rsquo;s been hanging about in my archive for years. My &lsquo;oeuvre&rsquo; (marvellously pretentious term) covers a wide range of styles, so you never know, you might find a few things of interest. More about this as the uploads get through. Very interesting experience, getting into this streaming lark, but I still think rumours of the death of CD are exaggerated &ndash; just look at the renaissance of vinyl.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&rsquo;ve finally entered the vaguely surreal world of online music streaming.
