@cdarwin@c.imNew #Bandcamp Layoffs:
Why Artists Are Worried and Where to Turn
Last week, Bandcamp laid off more engineers.
Here's why some artists are panicking and the alternative direct-to-fan platforms gaining traction.
For independent artists and labels, Bandcamp isn't just another platform.
While Spotify and other streamers pay artists a small fraction of revenue per play,
@AimeeMaroux@mastodon.social#PSA: It's #BandcampFriday
Your whole purchase is going to the artists today. I bought the Hades II soundtrack by Darren Korb and "Warrior of the Mind" from Jorge Rivera-Herrans' Odysseus musical EPIC.
@harrysentonbury@social.linux.pizzasome decent fucking punk for #bandcampFriday

@scott@carfree.cityIf anyone's still up here are my #BandcampFriday recs. Under no circumstances buy these on a day when Bandcamp gets a cut. If you don't see this tonight you have to wait for the next Bandcamp Friday

@pgcd@mastodon.onlineI remember the outrage when Songtrader bought #Bandcamp
Turns out Songtradr was the good guys, especially when compared to what's been going on with Spotify, don't you think?
@ginevra@hachyderm.ioYaaaay! The #BandCamp creator I've had my eye on who hasn't released anything for 10 years just released a new track! They're alive & still making music 😍

@AccordionBruce@Mastodon.socialStill 15 minutes left to support artists during #BandcampFriday
I just grabbed #WendyMcNeill and #DanielKahn's albums
And some electronic/hip-hop #accordion from the Ivory Coast
#AccordionBandcamp
@pgcd@mastodon.onlineOh wow, #bandcampFriday and I haven't done anything new in more than a year. It's almost as if I gave up. Which I did.
Still, it's Bandcamp Friday so if you're in a good mood, allow me to do something about it

@soundclamp@mastodon.xyz#NowPlaying Did anybody get this 4 × cassette box set from W2F aka Matt Wand (Stock, Hausen, and Walkman) which appeared with five hours to go on #BandcampFriday?
@AccordionBruce@Mastodon.socialFor #BandcampFriday here's a #Cumbia remix of Bela Lugosi's Dead
Sadly with no #accordion 🪗😥
Maybe @… can work up one for a #halloween episode of @…
#Goth #Polka version on #Bandcamp from the Polkaholics that is surprisingly good. #AccordionBandcamp Recommended:
