As hard as this is for us to believe, today marks the fourth anniversary of Hidden Track’s launch. When Slade Sohmer and I started this site on October 15th, 2006, we aimed to get two or three posts up per week. Pretty quickly we developed a daily schedule of posts and now we average about six posts per weekday. In fact, this post is our 5,892nd post of all-time. Not bad for a team of part-timers who do this for our love of the music.
With each passing year our readership continues to grow and 2010 looks to be our best year for traffic by a longshot. More importantly, it’s been our best year for content as we continue to launch new columns and improve upon old ones. This website would never succeed without the hard work of our contributors and I’m not just talking about the posts you read on the site – there’s plenty of work by our whole team that goes on behind the scenes.
I’d like to thank our readers first and foremost, but I’d also like to thank Jeff Greenblatt, DaveO, Ryan Dembinsky, Wade Wilby, Jeremy Gordon, Carla Danca, Chad Berndtson, Luke Sacks, Randy Ray, Jon Hochstat, Dan Alford, Jonathan Kosakow and Adam Kaufman as well as the Glide Magazine team for their hard work and support over these last four years.

We hope you’ve been picking up what we’ve been laying down and will continue to do so in the future. Comments, Facebook “likes” and tweets help motivate us and are always appreciated. We’re also always open to suggestions and submissions. See our About Us page for more information on contacting us. Here’s hoping we have at least four more years in the tank.
