For everybody who discovers Nehoryn only now with the album
Golden Hyphen, I propose you a little summary of what you missed.
Nehoryn is an idea vaguely worked out in 2007 with the demo-test
He11 Heaven. Initially thought as a music band, as I was the only main member, this idea had not ended up redefining... Finally, collaboration stopped to concentrate on the work of a music style "in Nehoryn" while I built my own studio little by little at home.
Left nothing, this website for year 2008, with albums
Fvck3rl1ne,
UNREAL and
DeKaDance, will count 5012 visits for 32 457 pages seen. In 2009, I count 19634 visits for 118 510 pages seen. Less than 10 visitors a day in more than 50 from more than 90 countries. After France and United States, here is the Top 15:
Greece, Belgium, Germany, Canada, India, Morocco, Switzerland, Ireland, Poland, Italy, the United Kingdom, Australia, the Netherlands, Sweden, Japan
Some such stats that almost quadrupled for a website that isn't porno, no "Funny" stuff available, just music created by an in no way well-known person, it was not easy! The 16 tracks release
The Night Rebirth was at first unobserved. That was the same thing for the "synthesis" album of 18 tracks
Take My Hand ! that included a lot of musics remasterised from my 3 first demos...
Fortunately, I participated to the
Compil' Pirate V.2, a hacktivist work conceived by the
Pirate Party in France, several WebRadios had broadcasted my music (
MakeFace Radio,
electro-ice or
NetRadio Village), the
AIMSA agreed to add 2 of my titles to the catalogue... Then I developped other formats of distribution as EP, quick, short, homogeneous and... long life to the Pear2Pear !!
After these EP,
CyberFire Inside,
Take My Hand (ep) and
Sundown Evenings which travelled through the Web, je me suis essayé à une "collaboration" - via la licence Creative Commons - avec le groupe Nine Inch Nails. Celà a donné le single
Do It Yourself I tried a "collaboration" - thanks to the licence Creative Commons - with the band Nine Inch Nails. This gave the single
Do It Yourself that represented the best that I could technically do. But the buzz/feedbacks won't really come...
Since then, the biggest site of Torrent Vuze (in former days Azureus) announced us the end of musical torrents to concentrate on only film contents. Following this event, I didn't republish of my whole discography. However, titles are always available individually. I created an umpteenth Best-Of of 20 titles
The Other Side that I put for sale on most commercial platforms (iTunes, Napster etc.) and free (
Dogmazic...) as well as a more homogeneous, more compact version of this album named
NaGGa OldSkylerS.
This new turn will be decisive. Nehoryn will be during months and months number 1 of French BigBeat artists on Myspace before this site changes its classification. The number of streamings and of downloadings is as for them invaluable. In fact, I don't know how the musical industry can calculate this data about its deficit linked to "piracy/hacking", because unless being buddies with all hackers so that they pass them the logs of their servers, what seems rather ridiculous, I don't see :-)
Finally, I think of several projects for future. I would like to develop the netlabel
Hack My Music ! to promote other artists, to fight as always for philosophy of a free world and freedom on Internet, find some way to earn money because without that, no project !
I want to thank all those who bought a digital album or a track of Nehoryn, those who made donations or those who write critics on the different sites where it's possible to listen to my music. It is thanks to you that music can exist. It is obvious that I do not consider (financially eloquent) to be able to put my musics in disposition freely. Even if he is too early for me to think of any economic balance sheet, you should not forget that the support of the independent artists is a thing essential for their survival.
I hope that my translation helped by Google isn't too bad ^^
See you later nehorynian girls and nehorynian guys ! : )
