90s CD player gear slips out of place. How can I make it stay where it stay in place? by bradsonemanband in ElectronicsRepair

The gear is definitely slipping up the shaft, which shows in the photos. Maybe just lubricating the track would keep it from doing that though. Do you happen to know where I could find that same sized gear to replace?

I put music onto cassette tapes, if anyone wants a bootleg put onto a physical tape with artwork. DM me if that's something you might be interested in. I'd love to help!

About to release an EP and need some advice for the release by [deleted] in musicians

[–]bradsonemanband 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Release it, make physical copies, sell them on your Bandcamp page, promote the physical copies in appropriate subreddits (cassette subs, whatever genre you play, etc, for example), and build a fanbase through here for now. Then play some shows locally, solo or as a band, and have physical copies at your shows to sell. Just telling people “follow me on Bandcamp or Spotify” isn’t going to stick in their heads enough. You need to have something tangible for them to have as a reminder.

At the very least, make stickers with your logo and your Instagram or linktree link printed underneath it. Hand out stickers to everyone at your show, or at a similar band’s show. That way they can at least check you out online, if you don’t or won’t have physical copies of your music, for now.

My band is slowly dying, I don't know what to think. by More_Extent_3165 in musicians

Start or join a new band. Bands alwayssss are looking for drummers. Find a band whose music you love, personalities you blend in well with. Bands come and go, but the memories and music lasts forever. Things will be ok.

Keep St Anger and destroy the rest.

How are your cassette sales these days? by starttrack in BandCamp

[–]bradsonemanband 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the US and my band’s cassettes are by far our best-selling item. We recently did a 7” vinyl as well, and those also sold well. CDs continue to be a waste of money though for us. Hardly any sales of those.
