Is anybody interested in a healthier alternative t...
# forums
a
I have a friend who is building something like that and he wondered if people would be interested
l
theres already so many different people doing this
id recommend just making your own website for your music at this point
a
hahaha lol
but isn't that how change is made?
I kinda have faith in him
l
i mean he can but its not going to be better then the options already out there
plus with just making your own website for yer music stuff you can literally add any features you want catered towards you
t
Untitled and bandcamp ig
They just have limitations ig
l
theres stuff like ampwall and a bunch of other ones
a
yeah i have heard about that
l
but id rather stick to bandcamp, theres nuthin wrong with it
a
i will have to search that one up hahaha
l
if it aint broken dont fix it is what my great great great grat granpappy use to tell me
t
Iā€™m kinda waiting until I get the money for a distro
Because I prod for shit
a
true
l
i only would ever distribute to bandcamp
t
I actually got 2 beats for 2 different people done
a
well ill give him the feedback ahahha
t
I understand but I hate it when people drop music in one platform only
l
interesting
t
God forbid I wanna listen to your music in SoundCloud
Or bandcamp or Spotify or whatever
l
is soundcloud still a thing
a
yeaaah
its the whole underground
t
Only for underground scenes really
a
yeah well
but idk if soundcloud gives curators a chance too
thats a key point from my friend
he said that if curators are like valorised
and treated like creators
music recommendations could get a LOT better
no need for algos
whats your guys opinion on that
l
idk not my thing but i dont produce music for other people tbf lol
all thats important to me is that i have at least one source to post my music on and will store for me
t
Same but I love money
l
eh
actually no i could buy crack
a
hahaha
yeah, sounds legit
but in that sense you could use like youtube too no?
totally understandablešŸ˜…
l
i only use it for videos
a
oh ok
l
i mean you can its just not my thing, youtube is great fir discovery
a
yeah yeah
totally understandable too
well i guess ill tell my friend to get back down from the clouds haha
l
if he make smusic he should make his own website
a
fosho
d
this is a pretty good list of up-and-coming ones
i personally use bandcamp, though i wanna learn how to torrent
anyone got any good guides?
l
wdym by learning how to torrent
what exactly are you wanting to torrent
d
i mean i'm too lazy to troubleshoot qbittorent and have been putting it off
albums from major lable artists that don't have a way to purchase their music officially
well, besides itunes
l
just use yt dlp and youtube
its good for downloading big custom amde yt laylists too as you can download in bulk, just make sure you add a buffer so you dont get rate limited for an hour
and then art cover and metadata can be auto done in bulk by using musicbrainz picard
just need to mess with filter to where it only relies on vinyl/cd format and not every format on picard
yt dlp can also do metadata btw, but the art will be the thumbnail of whatevr the video is which wont alwya sbe the actual art cover itself
d
oh cool, thanks a lot!
a
cool list!
ill check it out
but I am curious
if there was like this ideal platform
what would you like it to have?
Its a question that has been in my head for a while now
d
tbh i just wish music downloads were more accessible outside of itunes since i personally prefer having a song library on my phone
bandcamp is good as far as indie projects go, but it's still pretty inconsistent
