I am working on making XTT songs officially available for download on the Rock Band Network!
I have uploaded “Come Along” and it is pending review and I should have “Warning” ready to be uploaded for review by tomorrow and a few others in the process of being “authored”.
XTT Rock Band Network Page coming soon on RenatoMusic.com!
Check back for updates!
Below is a Preview of “Come Along” for Rock Band Network!
I been playing Guitar Hero and Rock band these days and I stumbled upon Frets on Fire which is a free for PC, Mac and Linux. I also discovered that you can add your own custom songs and I was motivated to add my own music, and after a couple of days of learning and plenty of trial and error I got my first song up, “Warning”, I spent countless hours with what is called “Fretting” my song, and finally I think I have a good version that is somewhat on time. Anyway, below is a video of what it looks like, and if you like the Frets on Fire version of the song it is available for download, please feel free to check it out and tell me what you think.
I received an email invite for a new indie host called GotSeeN.com, I joined right away and made my profile and so far it is pretty cool, the admins are very proactive and it is a nice and simple to use interface with a simplified JamRoom interface on the back end that is becoming common with many indie hosts these days and it doesn’t have all the extra stuff that many of the other site leave on. anyway, it has a nice community feel to it more than the usual rat race of artist trying to get signed which is the main thing I like about icompositions.com as well and I believe it is based out of the the UK which is cool cause I only know of a few sites from the UK so far, anyway I recommend setting up a profile on this site for indie artists, good stuff.
I received an email from music alley that said my song “cookie monster” I posted on music alley was featured on Comics Coast to Coast Podcast, and naturally I am excited about it, they end off the show with “cookie monster” and play it about 52 minutes into the podcast and on top of that they featured my song on the homepage of the site as “Music to Draw By”, totally cool stuff and I listened to the show and it is pretty funny and very cool!
you can listen to the show, download it and add it to itunes here or just listen in the player below:

Here is a site I wish was around back in the glory days (I feel like an old man saying that! fuck I am an old man) on one of the most coveted record labels in the heavy metal world, Road Runner Records that signed some of my most favorite bands and heavy metal heroes of all time.
I actually created the artist profile here a few months ago but I made a big mistake creating it at work behind a firewall which was messed up, I had troubles uploading the songs and all the other stuff you need to upload, then it didnt show up on the artist list which really perplexed me for a while, then I finally figured out a work around, I changed my email address and user name and made a new profile and thankfully it worked. Now I have a nice profile set at signmeto.roadrunnerrecords.com and below are some screen shots of the glory:
This is what the it looked like on the homepage for few days of glory and heavy metal ecstasy I had on the charts in the new artist section and the other artists I shard that day or 2 with:
This screen shot below is what it looked like with most of the page I could fit in the screen shot, which I will remember for the rest of forever:
To add to the glory, below is a snap shot of the awesome first review the song “Warning” received within the first few days it was posted which I am obviously very proud of, check the pic below:
