Mr. Afternoon - The Golden Bonana - new 5.1 fusion jazz album [Pre-order] (24/48 MLP/DD)

[Mr. Afternoon]

Hey guys! I've been lurking for a while but now that I'm finally making and releasing music of my own, I thought I'd make an account and share.
I have a planned release date of 7/7 and am going to be releasing on DVD-Audio/CD.

If anyone wants to hear samples of the 5.1 mix, I would be willing to DM.

Wow, that sounds amazing. I love the vibe. I'll be buying!

EDIT - pre-ordered the DVD with 5.1 Nice.

Welcome to the forum! I really enjoyed the opening track as well, and the waveform picture indicates that you've made heavy use of the rear channels. I'm curious what software you used to author the DVD-A? I was under the impression that Minnetonka DiscWelder and Cirlinca HD-Audio Solo were no longer available.

Very Cool, Mr. Afternoon and welcome to the forum. Will definitely order. Just hope Steve the Gorilla in his quest for the Golden Banana is rewarded!

I don't want to speak incorrectly, but if I understand Bandcamp site, the CD/DVD is just a set of 50 units. Better grab them quick, I'd say. Now, if I'm wrong...well....

Eeeyup! It's my first time releasing something in surround (whatever work I've done previously is private for the time being) so I want to do a small quantity!

There is actually open-source freeware to author DVD-Audio images.

Thanks so much! I'm a really small artist so I'm just trying to get at least 25 people to buy my album and I'll be content.

Just pre~ordered. LOVE DVD~A!

Hey Mr. Afternoon. Color me impressed. Looks to be very discrete and I love the music. I'm Steve too so how could I resist!

Hey, Steve. Thanks for the compliments! I'm honestly surprised so many people have placed orders already...I'm not used to having an audience

A very nice surprise to find, after logging on this evening.
Another member added to your audience!!
As I've pre-ordered too.

You might want to think about getting some more copies made....

I basically make sure to design all my works for 5.1 surround.
If these 50 copies get sold out within 2 weeks I will definitely do it. Right now I have 8 pre-orders made for it which is more than I have ever sold. LOL.
Still wondering how to promote the darn thing since I don't have social media.

QQ Forum is definitely a great place to start but unfortunately a lot of its posters prefer Rock/POP. But as word of mouth spreads and the fact your album is discrete may sway more members who appreciate jazz fusion to take the plunge.

Best of Luck!

Ironically I have been working on a pop/alternative project but that's later down the line.

Shouldn't we post something in the "surround in 2021" thread....or whatever it's called??

If you think this is my only surround sound release in 2021 you are mistaken. I got more down the line! (fall/winter)
