No, not so often... I get surprised if anyone recognizes my stuff online
(and offline).
I don't want to change anything for an audience. I try to do music that I
feel is ok for me, not for a listener in first hand. But of course it is
good to know that my music have been listened to.

One way to raise energy levels is to colloborate with other likeminded
people... Maybe someone to play and record with or someone to include some
new area into your work of art (things come to my mind as video, lights,
painting, texts etcetera). There are lot's of artists that are really
longing for someone to colloborate with.
&
Please don't put your weblabel down! - I think many listeners and artists
would be sorry.
(even if you haven't heard from them so much or at all)

Yours,
Björn Eriksson
