Ba Ren Chi’s music on Jamendo topped three thousand listens a couple of days ago, which makes me happy. This since I first started making it available in October of last year, so about six months overall. It comprises the album Cool 7, a remastered version of Meaner Than That and then the singles Oni Daiko, Too Cool, Lontan Da, and Da Levante. Then another fifty or so listens on the various LANDR-connected services (like Tidal and Spotify), where the biggest number of plays have been through Youtube Music and they’ve happened in twenty-one countries, with Peru having the most listens in one place (hola peruanos!).
I’ve got more coming, but other projects have been pressing, so it’ll probably be another couple of months before I finish the second album. Shooting for summer.
