Hey Chris, This is the first time I listened to your music, and it's awesome! I found it through this post on Gizmodo: http://gizmodo.com/5934188/fujifilm-x+pro1-review-serious-style-serious-price
It's the soundtrack on the video clip.
Thanks for making such good music!
I made an FMA account just to tell you this.

Chris, I sent you an e-mail with this info, but wanted to say something here as well. I used Chris's song "There's Probably No Time" in a video on LiveLeak. The video has over 50k views, and has been shared over 600 times. Everyone loves your song, as do I. Thanks for making your music available to us, and I hope my video gives you the exposure you deserve.

Hello!

I've just completed my book trailer using Cylinder 5 and Prelude No 23 as background music. The results were awesome! I hope I've done the attribution correctly, I used the links supplied and placed them as close to the video as possible:

http://nekesaoumanamulu.com/#books

For the Youtube video it was a tad trickier because they don't allow html. I simply stated that the music was done by yourself, and placed a link with the names of the tracks back to here. I hope this is correct:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ2xrG5VQGI

Brilliant, brilliant work! Have thrown something (small!) in the tip box...no way commensurate with the quality of your work.

Much appreciated!

Hey Chris! Finally made an account on FMA and wanted to let you know how important your work has been to me! I've been in an Advanced Audio/Video Production class for a few years now and me along with my friends in the class have always thought your music is the absolute best for our videos. (We upload them to YouTube with the music credited). No matter what our videos are about, we almost always find a place for one of your tracks in it. I even used some songs in the 'Cylinders' album in a video I made for a school competition video. Keep ruling FMA!!

Richard_Lee on 05/15/15 at 03:59PM
' I am a man who will fight for your honor' has got to be the best track for an apocalyptic video I've ever heard. I've been wanting to do an apocalypse setting for my next video for a while, totally plan on using it!

Dear Chris!
A company I have edited videos for is interested in purchasing a full license for 2 of your tracks.
Is that possible or should they just stick with the attribution license?

Sorry to post this on your wall here, I can't find any contact info.

Stop listing your music as fitting every single genre and emotion. Please only use appropriate tags for your music, so that searches are more relevant.

Hi Chris,

Your music was absolutely essential in the creation of this video https://vimeo.com/208902976 about Pinelands National Reserve Photographer Albert Horner and his advocacy work. Hope you enjoy it! I used "The Dark Glow of the Mountains" - I am working on an experiential film with footage from the Pinelands using a lot of your music.

Chris, I'd like to use your song Everybody's Got Problems That Aren't Mine, in a scene titled, The Play, from my small, independent middle school teacher's movie, called, The Chromebook Conspiracy.
This is my channel where I will post it when finished with the edit, if that is OK with you:
