For some reason, the SC playlist widget isn't displaying as normal.

Let's see if this works...

Yeah it doesn't work anymore not sure why

Soundcloud has been a bit off this week; random stops during streams, not sure if it's related.

Antique_Guitars

I think that they aren't doing too well as a business...........

IMC1980

Yeah I read the same thing; they are going to be bankrupt if they can't get their subscription service to earn some money.

Shame as its a great platform

Hard to choose between three great riffs but I'm going with ...


3rd (1 point) @IMC1980  ; Great energetic rocker.

2nd (3 points) @stratman3142 ; Love the slide hook.

1st (5 points) @kin  ; This gave me a big nostalgic smile with it's very 'Canterbury Scene' vibe (I went to uni in Canterbury)

steamabacus

Oh look - the 'widget' has finally appeared!

5 points @steamabacus Sounds pretty epic. I can picture the crowd with their lighters

3 points @IMC1980 Rocking!

1 points @kin A riff that suits the sunshine. If only it wasn't cloudy today.

@steamabacus is was a whammy bar not slide. I only noticed after I recorded it that it seemed to sound like slide, which is why I called it Whammy Slide. I have no imagination when it comes to naming things.

5 points to @steamabacus, love this; it just needs to kick in to some huge power ballad chorus!

3 points @stratman3142 Great lead line in your clip

1 point @kin a nice "end of the night" tune.

SoundCloud has just informed me that the last track I posted - coincidentally, a version of this same RotM loop but with me soloing over the top - has just had 1146 plays in one day!?! Yesterday it was on the usual ten-or-so plays? My most played tracks (that have been on SC for years) have only got four- or five-hundred. Something fishy is afoot!

I think that number is close to my combined plays of all my music for all time! Quite depressing when I think about it.... 

It's probably a glitch in the matrix, they are meant to be on their last legs financially so inaccuracies may happen, or maybe your song has ended up on an advert without your permission, try Google searching your track. While we're on the subject, is it going to turned into a full song? I really liked that clip!
