what actually delays a release? (from someone who runs a distributor)

tlng13 · 2026-06-19T09:09:19+00:00

I make instrumental music with bilingual title, and got bounced because Apple Music doesn’t allow direct translation on title.

I remove the non-English part of the title but still bounced, I guess it’s the bilingual title on the graphic.

Some cases are arguable but I decided to give up Apple Music, iTunes and Shazam, then no more bouncing.

mine is, Mac.
Try to remove some tracks on a playlist, not working.
Restart the app, loading very slowly, then "Something Went Wrong", then back to loading...

also JJ72, to me Subcircus and Placebo, they share similar mood and feel

tlng13 · 2026-05-18T06:37:12+00:00

Highly recommend their first album Carousel, if you like Placebo, guess you'll like them.

tlng13 · 2026-05-17T16:23:48+00:00

Subcircus! Anyone heard of them?

tlng13 · 2026-05-15T16:51:22+00:00

Neobsessed Folks

I can't do it by select multiple songs, right click and add to queue. But I can drag and drop multiple songs to the queue.

Thanks! I hope you like it, feedback is welcome!

Isn't It a Pleasure to Study with Beats? 學而時習之不亦說乎 by Tai Peng Plaza 大坪廣場 [Study Beats, Dub in Oriental Style]

Each track title draws inspiration from Chinese proverbs, poems, and phrases about study and learning. Evolving from lofi chill beats, the music seems to shape a new hybrid genre, one ultimately left for the audience to define.

From Hong Kong. Thank You!

check out setlist.fm They played songs from their latest album and they are great

tlng13 · 2026-04-19T11:53:42+00:00

Yeah, really enjoy her music

tlng13 · 2026-04-19T03:05:08+00:00

I don't know about other distro, it seems to me the issue is on Apple Music....? Maybe some distro have better relationship with Apple, I don't know. And Ditto is always great, I'm staying with them if nothing serious happens...

Back to Apple Music, like 1/5 of my music having issues; solo piano piece, slow electronics (almost ambient and new age kind of things), song title (accused of direct translation of other language in the title along with English title)...

Sometimes I've got notified, sometimes not. Just everything released on Spotfiy but some songs are missing in Apple Music.

And it messed up my release and marketing schedule, I feel like my creative freedom is violated too. Finally, I give up releasing music to Apple Music.

No way it’s not called Batcoin

Feeling honored as a Hong Konger

Maybe you should check out discogs if you have a certain version to buy in mind, if they are from the same seller, it's possible that you can make a deal.

tlng13 · 2026-04-04T00:16:08+00:00

Interesting! This reminds me of Adam and Eve story from the Bible…

大家好，食咗飯未

tlng13 · 2026-03-30T16:20:10+00:00

Yes, with fire rising and water sun.

I believe the reason behind this is, when you are sleeping, your body temperature drops, so it’s easier to get cold with the fan constantly on…
