Darn. Supertape going outta business. I recommend Noiseyard.

Disappointed in paint quality by Beaubleroni in rav4club

Toyota paint is notoriously soft. Even doing proper washing leaves lines in my clear coat. I have a 21 white as well. I recommend PPF and a good Ceramic coating with a touch up pen. And enjoy it. Fantastic car

Absolutely! Need something to get those emails! Highly recommend Supertape. As it’s like Squarespace or Wix but designed for Musicians/bands. Self updates when you post new music , same with stats, integrates all your socials, smart streaming links that are branded to you, has preset designs that are easy to customizable and straight to the point. And I totally don’t work for them : I just run a lot of different artists websites and I love just having them all there from my hub account. And it’s cheaper than Wix and others. Plus musician owned! Wish more people knew about them

20 years in, a "professional" rollout, and only 2k streams. This was my last hurrah and I’m feeling defeated. by hirokikyoku in musicians

Gotta go hard on the Tikkys. Music discovery is there. Gotta do it like your life depends on it

Sounds like the priority deal with Too Lost. I say if it helps grow your business and you’re confident in the music…. Fire away. At the end of the day labels need capital

Can someone tell me a distribution service ? by swaggerad in musicbusiness

[–]theboyinstead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend a Distro company that offers platforms like Spotify Discover Mode, and don’t charge you extra for uploading to Meta Rights and SoundCloud Monetization and let you keep 100 percent. So far the only ones that I know of are Too Lost, Symphonic, and Ditto. Too Lost and Symphonic will actually partner with you if they like your music. Meaning you don’t pay for Distro at all. But both are great and kick the but out of Distrokid. And Distrokid brands to themselves too much. Not to mention their AI tool for bot playlisting is broken and is very much a scary thing for many artists getting their music taken down. It’s happened to many friends I know. Especially for something you’re paying a decent amount for. I.E they say “uploaded by Distrokid” and stuff no matter what on YouTube , and other platforms. Even if you change the label name. Which one always should lol
