Dude yes so much. And SoundCloud sucks nowadays. Everything worth using is subscription gated
there was this channel called the box for those that didn’t have cable it was the only way to see music videos the channel i had the box on always scrambled the video, but audio still worked pay to play a video might be a good sustainable investment
I feel the same so I built Soundprint
I agree 💯 . Social is normally content first. Share music, share live shows, share creation, like github? Combine tracks... People love to connect around music. Easily best way to find new friends, like minds, is around music taste imho. Also you can't make it about money first. Need to think about best way to share music in a way that is experiential first.
I think collecting music you made, listening history and shows you've been to says a lot, connecting creators and consumers but not in a salesy way.
I agree. I would love to see something that gave me the rush of (participating in) Unlonely's dating show "Love on Leverage"
i grew up finding music on sbtv, unfortunately ofc it didnt cover a wide enough selection but Jamal did the british street music a real service there!! Rip jamal edwards
Licensing is likely going to eventually make any attempt miserable unfortunately. Maybe it needs to be closer to a group chat model
yeah instagram was built for photos and music just got squeezed in. i'd want something where you hear before you see, a chronological feed, and discovery that comes from what people actually listen to, not from who's best at doing reels
That's something that I've been working on, and you'll definitely be one of the first to step inside.
Maybe some wildsecret playlist on YouTube channel? Too main stream ? 🤔
Yepp. Instagram literally is a 247 club where as a musician you are expected to DJ without any rest. So there won't be any time to make music and be creative lol.
