This feels like a publicity stunt. DigSin is single-oriented (that's even what the name means!), and it's far from unusual for labels to release a free single to promote the album. Meanwhile, plenty of independent artists on sites like Bandcamp and labels like Quote Unquote Records release all their music for free w/voluntary donations.
- keithpeter 15y agoWell, I had a browse. Bandcamp list under their folk tags an artist called Daughter. Daughter releases an EP called His Young Heart. Daughter has a gig at a tea shop in Liverpool on a day when I can't get there, such is life. My paypal account is £3 lighter and my hard drive 93Mb heavier as a consequence of all this. Discoverability is the big nut to crack. Anyone here working on that? It was easier in the days of 45s and LPs and bins in your local record shop, but, I suspect there was less. The issue is cross-silo thinking. Web seems to feedback things I 'like', and confirm other's likes (people bought this also bought...). Daughter's music is outside my normal territory but only half a football pitch, not a mile. The other issue is images. The photo on the EP is important. The artist I suppose had some input on that.
