Baidu.com is like google in China, so on a whim, we decided to search for the Blue Coast Collection and to our suprise, there were hundred of listings (more than 457 as of this writing)! We used the google translator to see what it was they were saying about us and it seems we're very well received!
Most of the forums seem to be generated by colleges kids, both men and women. We've heard reports that acoustic music is well received by 30% of the population... We're beginning to believe it!

Blue Coast Records Opens Up a New Section called Tidbits! New Music From Art Lande! 96K downloads on a whim!!
Dear Friends! Thursday is a tough day to get anything done, so we've moved our new music offerings this week to Friday.
Our contest from last week brought HUGE response and great reviews for all three songs presented. Jane Selkye's rendition of Ascension Day, brought the most favorable accolades, but we will offer all three as downloads next week at 96K. Those that participated, will get a free 96K version of all three songs when they are mixed.
This week, we had Blue Coast Artist, Art Lande in the studio recording with Bruce Williamson, his long time friend and musical companion for more than 15 years. These two fine musicians performed 3 Duke Ellington songs followed by their IMPRESSIONS of the same song.
The Ellington Challenge!
This week the challenge is to figure out which Duke Ellington piece these 3 IMPRESSIONSISTIC songs spawned from. You'll need to figure out the songs in the correct order and submit to me before 11pm PST on Saturday.
If you guess correctly, on Sunday we'll send you the original improvisation of the Duke Ellington piece as Art and Bruce performed them in the studio last week! It's not easy to figure out. Here's a hint for one piece... shiny material/Children play with these... :D
You don't need to purchase to be part of the contest. The whole song can be streamed as an mp3. If you like the music, our 96K

Tidbits will be priced at $2 per single... less than the cost of my triple espresso!

If It's Thursday, It Must be NEW MUSIC TIME at Blue Coast Records
Since the wonderful response of our 96K downloads, we decided to release music every Thursday on this high rez format!
This week we'll release the final 3 songs from the Blue Coast Collection at 96K at a special price of $3 per download. The songs will remain discounted until June 1 when they'll go to our regular price of $4 per song and $40 for the entire album bundle.
We have so many special 'treats' in the vault recorded using our E.S.E technique, we're not sure which to release first. Come back every Thurs to find out.
We also have a number of 44.1 downloads available at
www.bluecoastworld.com
and are adding new music all the time. These are recordings produced for the artist (mostly by me and some of my producer friends) that we've made available for downloads. They don't pass the test for us to be released as 96K downloads (either because they were recorded at 44.1 or mixed to 44.1..... ) because we don't believe in upsampling.
Tell your friends, visit forums and let us know where you're talking about us.
We love your comments.
Enjoy the Music,
Cookie
