TracingArcs 170 Posted July 1, 2020 BandLab | Introducing Albums https://www.bandlab.com/features/albums This looks intriguing. I use Jamendo and netlabels for my releases. I wonder how much this may generate interest in your work. (could think of where to place this,so hope this is appropiate in deals). 5 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

53mph 225 Posted July 1, 2020 Something to consider - It doesn't publish to Apple or Spotify, if that is what you want to do. It looks like a version of Bandcamp, but without the cut of sale. Could be interesting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Topcheese 55 Posted July 1, 2020 Now if I could only put together an album. With over a 100 unfinished songs,you'd think I'd finish a couple by now. Perhaps this will help encourage me. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is the basic default with my simple header. I already had the tunes here so it literally took me about 3 minutes to create. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In any case it will be down to how well you can promote and publicize. I would be inclined to be on both unless terms and conditions dictate otherwise. I was considering putting my current project (E.P.) on Bandcamp when its finished for the hell of it and the remote possibility I may recover something towards the costs. That is a few months off yet so i will be watching this closely. Edited July 1, 2020 by Vernon Barnes 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only question is on that page I don't see how it is setup to actually aquire the music other than to search for it on another platform. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you play the sax or something? "Some Days" sounds amazing mate. Thanks for sharing! (and I am not even that much into Jazz, and this song from the beginning captured my attention). Mix is awesome (sounds great on my headphones, I don't listen to speakers most of the time). The Distance Between us... mate, everything sounds great, guitar, piano, bass. Great production mate.

These performs are all great depositories, but you, the artist, have to get the fans in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hidden Symmetry 872 Posted July 1, 2020 BandLab doesn't do music distribution with online streaming services but you can set the tip jar. There's also the Bnd.link feature for promo - https://blog.bandlab.com/share-everything-with-a-single-link-with-bnd-link/ 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The rest are collabs- piano, bass, drums, sax, certain gtr solos.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freyja Grimaude-Valens 265 Posted July 5, 2020 Unfortunately, they only process tip payments through Stripe, which I don't have. Maybe that will change and I would be able to enter my paypal info for tip payments.
