"Well this time it only took from June 7 last year until now (October 4) to pass the 4,000,000 mark. So for a "backwater blog" like I've got going here, I'm even more more mightily chuffed. I have you all to thank for making my journey here so rewarding. You are the best."
Previosly it took from 2007 until July 2017 to reach 1 million, then from July 2017 until October 27, 2021 to reach 2 million, then from October 27, 2021 until June 4, 2024 to reach 3 million, then from June 4, 2024 until October 4, 2025 to reach 4 million...an ever accelerating rate that had my head spinning.
Well, over night last night (April 23) my visitor count passed the 5,000,000 mark. So in less than seven months I’ve had another one million visits. I don’t even know how to express my gratitude to all of you who come by here for a look or a listen. The only reason that I do what I do is all of you. All I can really say to you out there cruising the interweb searching for musick is...
Thank you so much. I am truly overwhelmed, You all are what keep me going & I salute you.

5,000,000 served! Congratulations and thank you very much for everything you do to feed our musical appetites! Please don't think we only enjoy the music, I greatly appreciate all the backstories and information you share on the various artists. Thanks NØ!
ReplyDeleteMy heartfelt congratulations, Nate. This is an excellent blog run by the nicest person in the world of music blogs.
ReplyDeleteSince I started following NSS, I have read so many inspiring write-ups and downloaded masses of wonderful albums that have provided me with rewarding listening sessions.
And most recently the massive Rapoon/ZF competition has been a particularly pleasant experience for me (not for everybody else, I think, but well ...). Keep up the good work!
A huge thanks to you for all the excellent music..
ReplyDeleteIt's a pleasure to come here every day. I'm discovering great new music at an unprecedented rate, so the numbers reflect your commitment to enlightening us. As the increase appears to be exponential, you can look forward to the next doubling in a few months, then weeks etc. More power to you, Nate. It's all down to you.
ReplyDeleteSimply a testiment of the quality of work with NSS. The numbers speaks for themselves. Well deserved.
ReplyDeleteThank you all. I love each & every one of you, even anonymous, who I may or may not know (there are so many).
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, and thank you. I started learning about your blog when someone mentioned that you had posted a series of African albums. I saw that there was more to this blog. So I started following silently. In the last few year more actively and I like it more and more.
ReplyDeleteThanks Richard, for being you. I can always expect good information from your comments. Glad you came aboard. We're that much more a community with your participation.
DeleteCongrats. And thank you for staying the course over the years. So many of the fun, offbeat corners of the net have faded away. Cory Doctorow is so right.
ReplyDeleteThanks anon. Docrorow & I see eye to eye on all the digital rights management & file sharing issues.
DeleteThis is one of the coolest, smartest, most interesting blogs, music or otherwise. I stop by daily; it's nice to know I am far, far, -from the only one. Gives one hope.
ReplyDeleteThanks Eric S. You are one of millions but still just one of a kind. I'm always thrilled when I hit any of the million milestones but I never forget that it is all the individuals that touch me. Tens of thousands, nay Hhundreds of thousands just come by for what they can share & that's why I'm here, but the few hundreds who comment, leave infornation, share links or request, make the vibe that folks often mention. I see you commenting on various other blogs that I visit & I'm honored to have you as a member of the family. It ain't Nothin' without you.
DeleteBe Careful, i'm just behind !
ReplyDeleteJust missing 5042600 served, Oups!
Félicitations, c'est mérité car ton blog regorge d' albums que l'on ne trouve pas ailleurs. Vraiment une des plus belles bibliothèques musicale du net.
Longue vie à toi et ton fantastique travail, et à ta passion.
Et merci pour ta proximité et gentillesse, que ce nombre incroyable n' efface pas.
You’ll catch up in no time. It’s the first ten years that are the slowest.
DeleteMon accessibilité et ma bienveillance semblent grandir avec chaque nouvelle personne que j'ai l'occasion de rencontrer ici. Vous avez considérablement enrichi mon expérience. Plus je touche de gens, plus j'ai envie d'en toucher davantage. Il existe tout un monde de véritable musique, et si nous parvenons tous à éveiller mutuellement nos consciences, alors la musique continuera de circuler.
Well, it's only logic that the next post is about... Traffic.
ReplyDeleteCongrats and hope you're OK.
Diego
Congrats, Diego. You win the prize for guessing how obvious I am. Talk about site traffic, then...
DeleteStay well, my dear friend. Hope you're set for autumn.
Congrats No, what a bench mark -Reb
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, 5 million is massive! Came here for the Dub and everything else followed. Regards Johnny R
ReplyDeleteCongrats bro, keep on sharing the positive vibes
ReplyDeletethanks for the good work, looking forward to the doom jazz may
ReplyDeleteDarkjazz is just a fraction of what May has in store, once I get finished with T.
