* Light Coorporation - Chapter IV, Before The Murmur Of Silence
At Progstreaming: http://www.progstreaming.com

* Light Coorporation - About

You want us to make your Bandcamp too? Ask our conditions.

It's a bit jazz. But most prog-fans will very much like it. If you do, please 'like' the releases, tweet about them, and tell your uncle with that awesome collection of jazz-albums.

Hi there,

Today we have three specials:

Taylor's Universe-special:
* Taylor's Universe - From Scratch
Because Progstreaming has designed a brand new Bandcamp-page for Taylor's Universe, we've bumped this up. Here's that brand new Bandcamp: https://robintaylorsuniverse.bandcamp.com/. Go buy the digital download (€ 7!) or de CD (€12) right now, because when the Bandcamp is a success we'll add the rest of their discography. "From Scratch" is a tremendous introduction to his great music. If 70's progressive jazz-rock ever had its traditions, Taylor's Universe is a contemporary continuation!

Seasonal-special:
* Seasonal - Loneliness Manual (at http://www.progstreaming.com) < available thru Lynx Music on CD and thru Bandcamp at all digital formats
* Seasonal - In Difference (at http://www.progstreamingclassic.com) < free diwnload!
* Seasonal - Noises And Clicks (at http://www.progstreamingclassic.com) < free diwnload!
We're in love with the sounds this young guy makes. It's a bit postrock, yet more gentle. It reminds of a mix between Explosions In The Sky and Pink Floyd's better parts of the soundtrack "More". It would be wrong reading this sentence and then neglecting this blurb. Ha, gotcha, now you HAVE to listen to it.

State Urge-special:
* State Urge - Confrontation (at http://www.progstreaming.com) < their awesome new album, out now on Lynx Music!
* State Urge - White Rock Experience (at http://www.progstreamingclassic.com) < Bandcamp says only 3 remaining copies on CD!
Well, what can I say. Another Polish band that's stuffed with talent and great hooks. This band playing white rock (what's that? He who knows the answer, e-mail Progstreaming!) will do it in stadiums soon, if this is a fair world (...) Anyway, You should give it a chance. You'll sing-along some songs before the day ends.

Go follow us on Facebook. And if you already have, please visit it now here: http://www.facebook.com/progstreaming, find the spot that says 'invite your friends' and then click all your progrock-friends. I'm sure they don't mind discovering new progrock every day. Plus we're trying to reach 20,000 likes before the Summer. That's quite a task!

Enjoy the music!

Tremendous thanks also to all the bands and all those great, dedicated labels we progrock-fans have. And finally, a big 'thank-you' to Ron Kraaijkamp, without whom none of this was possible.

Hi there!

You thought we were gone? Far from it!

First, we have a new one at Progstreaming:

* Ossicles - Mantelpiece > out now on Karisma Records (Airbag, Bjorn Riis, Magic Pie, Seven Impale)
* Eddie Mulder - Dreamcatcher > first solo-album of this member of Flamborough Head and Leap Day

Also, we've been working day and night on this brand new site, called All Streaming.
Here's the address for you to visit and bookmark: http://allstreaming.nl
And please also give a 'like' to our Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/allstreaming.nl and follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/allstreaming_nl. It's much appreciated.

So, what's the difference?

The main difference is that All Streaming will feature not only progrock, but also singer-songwriter, alternative rock, electronic music, jazz, metal, just ordinary rock, and you'll find even the new Europe, the solo-album by the singer of Men At Work (Colin Hay), the new Muse, the new Heather Nova, the new Mumford & Sons. But also the new Anekdoten, the Ayreon-related project The Gentle Storm, and stuff that's previously been on Progstreaming, Indie Streaming and Metal Streaming.

But the other difference some of you may not like is that you'll need Spotify to listen to it. This has come forth from something we can't help, and it makes sense in a certain way. Let me explain.

When Progstreaming started in 2011 we were basically one of the first that were bold enough to stream an entire album. Spotify was still a Swedish cabinet of rarities and Bandcamp was just on the market too. Since then, times have changed tremendously. Although Progstreaming offers to pay copyright too (to in our disclaimer it says we rather see them waive it, because promotion), most of bigger labels were reluctant to let Progstreaming stream a certain album, because of the revenu that Spotify - and other full-time-streaming companies - brought in, how little it may be.
That's not to say labels and artists didn't appreciate the service we provide, nor that they didn't understand the difference between short-time 'free' promotional streaming and paid-for 'eternal' streaming, but fact was, labels pulled out and the demand dried up. Especially with Indie Streaming we've noticed it became tiresome.

So that's why we thought about 'why not change our own player with a Spotify-widget'. Here's why we think it's a good idea:

* It's still good promotion. We think that many people use Spotify to decide if they want to buy something. That's why we divided the buttons between CD, LP and download.
* Since Spotify has a free version, curious people can still decide to play a certain track.
* If you dislike Spotify, clearly All Streaming isn't for you. That's alright too. Move over. We won't try to persuade or convince you. Then again, do visit the site once a week to see what's new out there, make notes, and find yourself other ways to listen to it. Many bands have their own Youtube-channel, or a Soundcloud or Bandcamp ready for you.

All in all, we hope you like it. And of course, we strongly hope you will stick to the physical stuff, and we think All Streaming is the best way to buy your Vinyl, if you're into that. We've noticed that Amazon (.com, .de and .co.uk) is quite cheap compared to others. Don't be afraid of the two Dutch suppliers. Bol.com is Dutch and the reason why Amazon is reluctant to enter the Dutch market, which I think says enough. They got an office with hundreds of full-time employers. Sounds Delft is from my hometown, and comes with a 1000 guarantees. You can even call them, because it's a regular shop. If ever one of you comes to visit Delft, I'll show you the store, and we'll drink a cup of coffee afterward, on my treat.

How's that for service!

If you got questions, ask. Next update I will point out some VERY interesting All Streaming features that will appeal to progrock-fans.

Now go like www.facebook.com/allstreaming.nl, pretty please.

Enjoy the music!

Is Progstreaming staying as is? I don't know if this "free streaming" business plan works overall for all labels, but I can guarantee they have made more money from me because of it. I've bought so many CDs that I never would have heard or even heard of because of this site.

Me to, although it can work the other way too, helping me avoid buying stuff I don't and won't like.

Hi there,

Today we have:

* William D Drake - Revere Reach > Out on Onomatopoeia on CD, LP and all digital formats (MP3, lossless, whatever you want, on Bandcamp). It's also on All Streaming (http://allstreaming.nl).

Many people worried that Progstreaming will stop, despite my lengthy explanation yesterday. It won't. Will it run slower? We'll see. It all depends on the supply and demand. Of course, I will continue to promote Progstreaming, Metal Streaming and probably Indie Streaming too. My hope is that bands and labels will not only like All Streaming, but also appreciate the 'niche' (well, 1600 visitors a day, if you must know) attention we all together generate with the streaming sites. That's strong free publicity many labels and PR agencies crave for.

So, don't worry. But you all need to listen to these albums at All Streaming. If you don't have Spotify, or dislike it for some reason, Google them, on search them on Youtube. Then buy them following my neat Amazon-buttons over at All Streaming.

* The Unthanks - Mount the Air (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...nt%20The%20Air)
* The Amazing - Picture You (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...0Picture%20You)
* Kristin McClement - The Wild Grips (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...20Wild%20Grips)
* Marriages - Salome (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...s%20-%20Salome)
* Anekdoten - Until All the Ghosts Are Gone (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...s%20Are%20Gone)
* Kamasi Washington - The Epic (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...-%20The%20Epic)
* Flo Morrissey - Tomorrow Will Be Beautiful (http://allstreaming.nl/pages/play-al...Be%20Beautiful)

Enjoy the music!

I've noticed how some of the albums on All Streaming have an additional player besides the Spotify player. What determines if that's available? I've only been streaming the ones that have the extra player because I don't have a desire to sign up for Spotify.
