Congrats Will. Very good interview. As you know, I've beem looking forward to this one. Queenie is part of a genre (ambient/newage /pop) that is not extremely popular but represents one of my favorites. I know it's never going to get the audience response of normal pop or hip hop. Still the music is deeply moving.

Queenie shows signs of growth and maturing that continues to enhance the music. I look for her next works to be even better than what has come before. I think her best stuff is yet to come.

Queenie also understands the need to distribute music amongst podcasters - providing 'podsafe' music for other podcasters to use for free in there podcasts. She freely participates in this model.

In your interview, Queenie come across as very human. Like the Daily Download, it's not for everybody but its definitely me.

Just FYI, heirophant is also a regular section in the Fortean Times magazine.

Thank you for featuring Queenie on Cloudy Day Art.
