It is with great excitement that I can announce that the end of year report and accounts for Operation New Music have been formally accepted by the Arts Council of England. So all focus is now on delivering the commitments given to the Arts Council of England and National Lottery for Year 2 which they have kindly provided further funding for. Although the current COVID 19 situation continues to frustrate my efforts to get live music events up and running again, the audience statistics for the radio and TV shows are a huge boost and I have been able to introduce new content onto Trust The Doc TV in late January. 2021 is set to be a very exciting year for all elements of Trust The Doc Media and Operation New Music. Your amazing support is an inspiration and I would like to thank everyone who continues to engage with these activities. Independent music has never been in a better state of health.

The new Alternatives To Despair EP by Neil March has received two rave reviews from Evelin Mercedes. One is in https://music-trails.com/neil-march-produces-four-track-ep-alternatives-to-despair-with-distinctive-sounds-close-tohome/. The other is in https://medium.com/music-trails/neil-march-introduces-latest-ep-alternatives-to-despair-9142bbd17243

Demerara Records are delighted to announce that Neil March’s Operation New Music project has received a second year’s grant from the Arts Council of England and National Lottery. This is great news for all the music artists and those in their support networks who the project aims to support through opportunities, exposure and advice. Neil has expressed his gratitude to these fine organisations for supporting new music through his activities.

The new EP by Neil March is out now. Alternatives To Despair received its first spin this weekend on Resonance FM’s Hello Goodbye Show with Dexter Bentley and will feature on Exile FM this week. It finds Neil utilising various environmental sounds from which he can derive pitch and create harmony that is juxtaposed against conventional harmony. Check out the EP on Bandcamp. It will be available shortly on all digital platforms too. Neil hopes to be performing live in early 2020 with a newly revamped version of The Musc Of Sound too.

Summer may be in full bloom (and searing heat and humidity) but New Music never sleeps. The Trust The Doc Media momentum rolls on with the two radio shows reaching their highest audience engagement figures yet and Edition 8 of the TV show due to land on Tuesday 18th August. Keep checking in for all the latest news.

It has been another busy period for Trust The Doc Media with a 5th edition of Trust The Doc TV, the latest live Trust The Doc Radio Show, the midweek Trust The Doc Extra podcast and the recent 46th edition of the original Trust The Doc blog.

As the audience continues to grow for the Trust the Doc Radio show and its midweek podcast extra show so the numbers and types of submissions to the show are rising too. So presenter and producer Neil March has issued the following statement on the show’s social media pages.

Hey Music Lovers, as S Express once cried, a quick word on airplay given the levels of submissions to my Trust The Doc radio show. I definitely don’t want to discourage anyone from sending me tracks. It’s a privilege to receive and broadcast so much cool new music.
