Welcome to the DPS blog
Welcome. www.thedeadpoets.org has been in existence for almost six years now. We haven't made any real major changes around here since that time. Minor tweaks here and there, but nothing serious. Well, of course, the existence of this Blog portends some new changes that are underway. Newest of the changes is a redesign of our website www.thedeadpoets.org
To be quite frank, we are managing the website ourselves, thus the redesign will take place often in our spare time and as we pick up new skills and techniques that we think could really benefit you our fans. While we redesign the site, we've also decided it is time to blow the dust off the site and get some housecleaning accomplished,as it were, as we make some improvements.
We've already made a few minor tweaks that we expect should immediately improve performance with regard to our videos. We've uploaded and linked our videos for "Synners" and "This Side of Forever" at the Youtube.com site for streaming. This should reduce the wait times for viewing. It also allows you the opportunity to archive the videos in your favorites folder there as well as rate us. We also think it will be a cool way for you to discover other cool indie artists who are doing interesting work. We are also committed to posting any future videos on the youtube.com site as well, so be certain to subscribe to us there and you will be among the first to receive any new videos.
Speaking of keeping in touch, we hope that this blog and your ability to subscribe to our RSS feed will make it easier for us to keep you up to date with things that happen in the DPS world. We will still keep our Yahoo group Society of the Dead Poets around of course if you would prefer. I imagine that short of super major annoucements, we will probably make this our main site for group related things that we find interesting, or think might interest you.
We hope you had the chance to get your singles at our ampcast page. That site has recently folded. We are now uploading all of our tracks including the songs from our official albums The Electric Haze and Deprogramming, as well as many of our more rare tracks and remixes to our soundclick.com site for your listening pleasure. This will be the only spot where you can purchase our rare and remix tracks. Includes our remixes for Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode, Collide, Madonna and Hotboxed.
Gradually we will be moving over all of the entries that had been listed on the old news page to our blog. We hope that it will make things easier for people to locate a previous entry they were interested in viewing. We hope you like the new format. We look forward to hearing your ideas and comments regarding the new changes as they occur.
