About my YouTube Channel and Music Publishing Company
When I began using YouTube in early-2010 under the channel name MoltoRubato88, I initially created content that focused on my piano performances with occasional instances where I included original works. Fourteen years later, much has changed in terms of my creative output. I also decided that my YouTube channel required a crucial revision regarding its overall scope. I established ZEKE SPILLED INK MUSIC (ASCAP) in 2019 as a self-publishing company designed to provide access to my compositions via digital PDF scores for instrumental pieces and audio recordings for electronic works. The ZEKE SPILLED INK MUSIC YouTube channel aims to provide audiences with the types of music that I create and distribute through my self-publishing company. Viewers can find the channel via the following link: www.youtube.com/@ZEKESPILLEDINKMUSIC
Most of my scores and recordings are currently available for purchase through My Patreon: www.patreon.com/anthonylsanchezcomposer
