03.31.22 | i like using bandcamp alot. really easy interface to use. I've met alot of musicians who outright refuse to use it, but i have alot of fun with it. |

03.31.22 | Hey sonoma. Concert in tulsa or near soon? |
Deathconscious
03.31.22 | Theres not much to it, its very user friendly. Never a bad idea to have your music on as many platforms as possible. |
Storm In A Teacup
03.31.22 | Especially when i feel like im getting better at music. Good time to expand. ๐ |
Deathconscious
03.31.22 | What platforms are you on atm? |

Storm In A Teacup

03.31.22 | lol we've played a lot of OKC shows, several more planned. we were supposed to open for crowbar and sepultura tomorrow but the venue owner replaced us with his son's band bc he's apparently huge into sepultura. we are setting up a show in tulsa at a place called The Vanguard for this summer |

03.31.22 | .wav files for Bandcamp. It's really easy to use. A cool feature is that you can pick a specific song off an album or EP to play first when someone visits your page |

03.31.22 | Make a musician account, and you'll have access to a back office, where it's pretty easy to upload your songs and organize them into albums. I put my old band's songs on Bandcamp, and I found it really easy to get around. |

03.31.22 | be sensible with your genre tags, also utilise location tags to stand the best chance of gaining some traction
utilise the customisable design
avoid uploading a bunch of singles
be proactive about gaining followers as you can ping them a message when you have a new release and have an instant audience |

03.31.22 | If you have any intentions of selling physical products it doubles as a merch marketplace too. |

03.31.22 | The only thing I've got is that I have barely made any sales, so I said fuck it and made everything free/name your price because without a fan base I figured it would be better to get it to as many people as possible. I've had more free downloads than purchases since, so unless you already have a following it's something to consider. |
Deathconscious
03.31.22 | Hmmm, that might be a good idea. |

Everything on there is free, because who wants to pay for twelve-year-old demos by an unknown band that was only around for a few months, am I right? |
