I find new music I love on bandcamp, perhaps that's outside the data used for this analysis?
Anyway, I spend thousands of dollars on amazing music on bandcamp, and the artists get a higher percentage from bandcamp than a studio, so I'm making the best choice for me and the future of my music.
- dutchCourage 5y agoI'm late to this thread. I'm shocked that I had to scroll past an entire page of "music is dead" to find something about Bandcamp. Producing music is easier than ever so there's more music out than ever. Listening to music is easier than ever. If you're relying on mass media (tv/radio) and big labels to find music you'll enjoy, you're doing it wrong. The curators nowadays are Youtube channels and Spotify playlists and indie labels on Bandcamp, I'm following music subreddits, finding stuff on Soundcloud. New music isn't dying, it's striving.
- shae 5y agoAny recommended music subreddits? I'm especially interested in finding links to good stuff on bandcamp.
- dutchCourage 5y agoI use reddit for electronic music, my go-to's are /r/TheOverload/ and /r/electro. For Bandcamp, I follow artists and labels there. Whenever an artist I like has a release on a label I don't know I check it out. There's also this tool from the Hype Machine that finds Bandcamp links from a Spotify playlist. https://hypem.com/merch-table https://hypem.com/merch-table Are there some specific kinds of music you're looking for?
