So as many of you already know, myself, @nzmetal and @ddye (aka CounterPlot) have been working on self-producing a full album of our songs over the course of the last year-ish or so.
Since the process of completing said album is going to take some time, we decided to start releasing some of the completed songs to streaming services as singles. Today was an exciting day for us as we officially released our first one
We re-mixed two of our songs- Time Bomb and The Queen. We always knew we wanted Time Bomb to be our first single. These were written with the intention to be played back to back almost like one song. Through the process of mixing them again, we were finally able to edit them so that they play seamlessly together. This makes me happier than it probably should
Iâm very happy with the new versions! Though they likely wonât sound hugely different to anyone else but the three of us, we are excited to share them with you all. The original feedback we got from many here was hugely helpful!
In case anyone hasnât seen them before and would like to see the music video versions, they are here and here The video versions have the original mixes.
We hope you enjoy! Itâs crazy to me that I picked up a guitar for the first time in my life in October 2021. Today I can listen to myself on Spotify Very surreal feeling
Thats really cool. I just checked them both out. Tick tick. Loved them. Great work, I really like the cover art too, even the bio was cool. Killer job you guys.
Now I should know anytime you put something out on spotify too, hopefully.
Congratulations, I felt the excitement when I saw New Single by Counterplot in Spotify. I can only imagine how excited you all are. Canât wait for the album to be complete.
To know that in the not-so-distant past something on Spotify today was just a vague concept in your mind⌠then to come âtogetherâ as a group & release your singles⌠This is really inspiring!!! Congrats to you Jenn, @DDye Dan & @nzmetal Jeff!!!
Thank you so much everyone! As @Jenndye429 said, putting the songs together has been a big focus for us for nearly a year. It feels awesome to see a couple of them out there for people to hear.
I give a ton of credit to this community for us getting to this point, and for whatever follows in our journey in music. So thanks to everyone! I know we have been inspired by what other people are doing, and itâs great to hear that we do the same for others.
Congrats!..a milestone that is not for everyone! I much admire your abilities in creating all this and I canât imagine how much time and dedication you all in the band put into it! Keep rocking
Thank you all SO, SO much! This community is the best The support from everyone here was a big motivator to get this project over the line and we are so grateful for everyoneâs encouragement and kindness
Thanks JK! Itâs cool having songs out there for people to discover. I know there are some other community members with songs on various streaming platforms, but not sure how many. Would be fun to know!
