When I first saw the title of the post I immediately thought the same thing! Tap into America......but I can't do that to William. How about, "ethnotronic groove?"

Ok, the new site is up.
www.William-K.com
Please, let me know how it looks and if things are working correctly.
I also updated some songs last week that are included on this new site.
On the purchase page I'm using Broadjam $.99 song system but also included a full album purchase link in 3 currencies. That should help.
I changed a bit some words on the front-page, to read better.
Thanks for the help so far.
Best Regards, WilliamK

William,
Why not use pictures to describe your music? I hate to admit it, but I've followed advice of a friend to pick up and purchase CDs purely based on the cover art.
Where is your cover art? Is it the one image of the medieval helmet?
While I'm enjoying the preview tracks, I probably wouldn't associate the sounds I'm hearing with the music.
Here are a couple examples of music that does seem to match cover art - I think that these have done a good job even whilst using photographs:
1. Beck - Sea Change http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BeckSeaCh.jpg
2. U2 - the Unforgettable Fire http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:U2_T ... e_Fire.jpg
In Beck's case, the somewhat oriental artwork overlaying his face implied to me a simpler less dense sound, which is exactly what Sea Change contains - at least for Beck. It's the only album I have of his.
In the case of U2, the treatment of the photograph with the filtering to me implies the Edge's guitar sound, particularly on this album. The Edge/Eno sound on this CD is burned into my memory along with this cover image. When I hear Edge's signature jangle/delay/reverbed sound - this is the image I think of. I was a U2 fan before the Unforgettable Fire, but when this image came out on that disc, I knew I had to have it.
Check out Plunge's release that came out today online (He's a KVRian as well). His cover art perfectly matches his sound. Here's a shot of his cover art.

Perhaps you could just increase the size of the helment image. Perhaps map the song names along the curvatures of the mask for the back cover art.
Best wishes for success selling your new music.
