I like a ton of music - so many styles, and I don't like to label things too much any way. Just look at my posts. To be honest, I think you're "eh". You have way more talent than me. But eh.
However, I really though I offered valid advice from a music lover's perspective. If you challenge people, they will accept that challenge. And sometimes, that gets ugly.
If you love it, if you work at it, if you share it, then you should hopefully find an audience without the drama. That might not make you the next pop star, but again, that shit confuses me. You need to be some teen sex idol or screech on a TV reality show to do that, I think.
Give me something that I can feel. Give your audience something to like. Please don't tell them that they should like it, feel a certain way, or whatever. I think we would all benefit - yourself included.
p.s. This thread might be less of a challenge than some of your others.
Again, if I am wrong about how to self-market in your line of work, I apologize. It is only a theory - but I think you'll tend to get a better overall response if you share rather than challenge.

You guys do realize that he's just advertising? Guy couldn't give two shits about the forum, he's here purely to try and pull in some extra dosh.

Yeah... he is promoting himself. I've discussed that with him a little. I gave him my opinion (and again just recently) about how he does that. I'm not a musician on YT, though, so I could be wrong. Maybe stirring up controversy is part of that.
In general, I have a problem with anyone posting "this is the best" or "this makes you feel...", especially when it comes to music. There is just so much to explore and experience.
Now while I'm not a fan of Matt's music, I honestly appreciate the fact that he is putting in effort (and perhaps more talent than I have) into making music. I hope he finds his audience. IMHO, if Matt wants to compete with the pop stars, he should get a job like everyone else. If he wants to do what he loves, then I think it would be cool to not force it so much. So I've offered constructive criticism and don't think I've been rude.
Now Robert... I don't get that. I don't understand the need to attack like that, let alone by simply posting the works of other professional musicians. If Robert wants to post his own music - sort of a battle of the bands - that could be interesting. So come on, Robert, let's hear what you have! I can find amazing professional works of music too. I'm not ready to share my performances yet, and all I do is play the works of others.
