As a music enthusiast, I am always on the lookout for tools and plugins that can enhance my creative process. Recently, I came across a set of intriguing plugins from W.A. Production – InstaComposer, InstaScale, and InstaChord. These plugins have piqued my curiosity, and I am eager to dive in and explore their capabilities.

While I understand that it may take some time to familiarize myself with these plugins, I am optimistic that they will help me create more captivating and unique compositions. The W.A. Production plugins have been designed to assist musicians in various aspects of music production, and I am excited to see how they can elevate my own musical creations.

InstaComposer, as the name suggests, offers a streamlined approach to composing music. It provides a range of intuitive tools and features that can assist in generating musical ideas effortlessly. With its user-friendly interface and powerful functionality, InstaComposer promises to be a valuable asset in my creative process.

InstaScale, on the other hand, focuses on scale and chord progression. It offers a variety of pre-defined scales and modes, allowing me to experiment with different tonalities and harmonies. This plugin will undoubtedly help me explore new musical territories and break free from creative limitations.

Lastly, InstaChord aims to simplify the process of creating chords and melodies. With its chord progression builder and customizable presets, I can easily experiment with different chord voicings and progressions. This plugin will undoubtedly inspire me to think outside the box and discover fresh musical ideas.

While I anticipate a learning curve with these plugins, I am confident that they will significantly contribute to my music-making journey. With InstaComposer, InstaScale, and InstaChord at my disposal, I look forward to creating compositions that are both captivating and innovative.

More Depressing Stats

Well, the stats for my music​ continue to flatline, with Spotify continuing to be a drag on my progress. Spotify now only contributes about 5-10% of my total streams in a month, whereas it supposedly has 30% of the streaming market. It continues to be in 4th or 5th place in my most popular platforms. Ugh. I get most of my plays  (and money) on Deezer, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Meta platforms and YouTube.

More News from Amazon Music

I’m psyched! I just checked the data from Amazon Music’s artist app and got some terrific news. I’ve spoken here and on social media about the need of artists with smaller followings to wean themselves off of Spotify. Spotify makes money off our streams, but has recently said that they won’t pay artists until they get 1000 streams per track. What they didn’t say that once you get to the 1000 stream threashhold, whether you get backpay, or whether they confiscate the $.0032 perstream they owe you.

Anyway, now for, to me, the exciting news. Here’s the screenshot from Amazon on some stats. They show I’m doing better than most artists in my listener category in the “Daily Voice Index”. I know the numbers aren’t so high, but I’ve only been promoting Amazon Music and Apple Music to my fans for a few months. So progress is progress. I currently make more money from both of them than I do under Spotify’s old rules. And since Spotify will essentially shaft smaller artists, I feel that abandoning Spotify is in my best interest.

The Power of Music on Social Media

Have you ever felt like your social media posts are falling on deaf ears? Well, I’ve got some news for you – the world of social media is a fickle one. One day you’re getting hundreds of likes and comments, and the next day you’re left wondering if anyone even saw your post. But fear not, my friend, because there’s a new player in town that’s changing the game – TikTok.

TikTok is the latest social media platform that has taken the world by storm. It’s a place where users can create and share short videos set to music, and it’s quickly becoming the go-to platform for viral content. With its algorithm that prioritizes discoverability and its user-friendly interface, TikTok has become a breeding ground for creativity and entertainment.

So why is TikTok so successful when it comes to music? Well, for starters, it’s all about the power of sound. Music has a way of connecting people, evoking emotions, and creating a sense of unity. And TikTok has harnessed that power by allowing users to easily add music to their videos, creating a whole new level of engagement.

Unlike Instagram, where users often scroll mindlessly through a feed, TikTok encourages active participation. Users can like, comment, and share videos, and even participate in challenges and trends. This level of engagement is what sets TikTok apart from other social media platforms.

So, if you’re tired of feeling like your posts are going unnoticed, it might be time to give TikTok a try. Who knows, you might just find yourself going viral and gaining thousands of views in no time. And hey, if you want to check out my TikTok, here’s the link: https://www.tiktok.com/@jaypeach53. See you on the flip side!

Amazon Fails to Deliver Once Again, Time to Revolt

Amazon, the e-commerce giant, has once again managed to disappoint its customers with its lackluster delivery service. A product that was promised to be delivered in just one day has now turned into a never-ending waiting game, with an estimated delivery time of at least four days. It seems like Amazon’s definition of “one day” is as flexible as a yoga instructor.

And if the delayed delivery wasn’t frustrating enough, the process of requesting a refund is equally infuriating. Even if the package fails to arrive within the extended timeframe, customers are forced to wait a couple more days before they can even request a refund. It’s like Amazon is playing a twisted game of “how long can we keep your money.”

But let’s not forget about the man behind the curtain, Jeff Bezos. While his company continues to disappoint, Bezos is still raking in the big bucks. It’s as if he’s sitting on a throne made of our unfulfilled orders, laughing all the way to the bank.

Enough is enough! It’s time to take a stand against these megacorporations and their blatant disregard for customer satisfaction. We need to band together and fight back, not just with angry tweets and scathing reviews, but with real action.

One way to hold Amazon accountable is through class action lawsuits. By joining forces with other disgruntled customers, we can make our voices heard in a court of law. Let’s show Amazon that we won’t stand for their broken promises and shoddy service.

Additionally, we must demand an end to SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation) regulations. These regulations are often used by large corporations to silence critics and prevent them from speaking out. We need to ensure that our right to voice our grievances is protected and that we can freely express our dissatisfaction without fear of legal repercussions.

So, my fellow frustrated shoppers, let’s rise up and revolt against Amazon’s failings. It’s time to reclaim our power as consumers and demand the respect and service we deserve. Together, we can make a difference and bring about change in the world of e-commerce.
