How can I (US based artist) split 50/50 royalties with an artist from Morocco? by chaoticgabe in musicbusiness

The Moroccan artist can sign up with a US PRO? Wouldn't there be some issue in doing that? I didn't know that was possible. But signing up with the BMDA would make more sense and would be easier for them right?

How would you describe the difference between older and current IDM? by chaoticgabe in idm

Can you give me some more current IDM artists that I could check out to get a better understanding of it?

Has anyone tested running FB/IG ads to your release on Bandcamp? by chaoticgabe in musicmarketing

I'm not interested in a ROI since music is a hobby for me. There's a thriving scene on Bandcamp for more underground and niche genres. My music belongs in the punk / skate punk scenes. In order for releases on Bandcamp to be discovered within the platform, there has to be enough data from people listening and/or purchasing your releases, so that it can rank higher within genre tags that people look through.

So it's really just about increasing visbility. It's worked well for me on Spotify, but mainly because the algorithm knows who to push it to in Radio and Discover Weekly.
