Independent music is the only true music left. The grand part of it is that there’s so much available to anyone who’s really looking for something great. No one every has to be force-fed “product” by a major corporate record label interested more in fleecing you than providing anything of value. Those days are long gone. I only buy independent music. There’s nothing like it.

Here’s the thing…

The only catch is that for independent music to flourish, we have to tell our friends about the music we enjoy. We have to be active listeners. Here’s our chance. My new single is available by download only through the download store on the Music page at www.chrispreston.com. The Pass It On promo is in circulation now.

The Pass It On idea is that someone you know gives the promo CD to you, you check it out, but only keep it for a couple of days. After that, you hand it off to someone else who might be serious about their music too. Then, you can purchase it if you want on the Music page and/or comment on the Pass It On blog for that recording.

If you’re visiting here because you’ve been in possession of the “It’s Christmas (Let It Touch You)” Pass It On promo, leave your comments here. Maybe you downloaded the song for your collection, maybe you didn’t, but leave your comments for everyone to read. Let everyone know where the “Pass It On” promo CD ended up. How far did it go? How did you like it? Whatever you do, keep the CD moving. Thanks so much for being part of this with me.

Keep buying independent music. Major labels have nothing of value to offer you. Independent artists work hard to give you everything that you love about music. You are a very important person in their world.
