FOLK TRAX - Monthly News
FEBRUARY MEDIA RELEASE
We trust you all had a good change of years. For us it was a quiet one with some friends. Of course we have not been idle during the last 2 month. We have placed some great new CDs on our website. This is just a small sample. First there is Kate Delaney and “a moment in time” then Mal Webb with his new one “Dodgy”, Pete Hawkes and Phil Emmanuel released Lost Souls Entwined. From Canada we added the Genticorum CD “Plaisirs Malins”. Genticorum are touring Australia. You will certainly catch them at The National. Braemar also added their CDs to our catalogue. From Planet Company we added Murray McLauchlan “Songs from the Street” Anyway there are lots more. Just have a look at www.folktrax.com and see for yourself.
In Adelaide we start with the Fringe Festival this month as well as the Frances Folk Gathering and Folk Trax will be there, Womadelaide is in March. So there is lots of great folk and world music in South Australia the first 3 month of 2008.
We invite artists to have a look at our website. Now is a good time to add your CD to our catalogue. It is easy and does not cost you anything but for our commission. Ask us for the details.
We continue the 10% discount offered to members of participating Folk Federations and readers of the Folk Rag.
Rest us to say thanks to everyone who supported Folk Trax last year and we trust you will do so again this year.
Keep on Folking

WEB-SITE NEWS
There is a progressive change to the sound clips. The evolution of sound formats on the Internet have changed things considerably. The RealPlayer format has lost favour and now mp3 is the most popular of the formats, and mp3 players are now coming as a standard part of Windows.
Over coming months the rermaining RealPlayer sound clips will be progressively converted to mp3 clips which we hope will be more acceptable to our viewers.
To guide us in the changes that we contemplate, your feedback would be most welcome and useful. Thank you.
