I have been a customer of Tunecore's since 2008. I am a premium subscriber, which is supposed to get you a one business day response time. I wrote to them three times regarding this and received zero responses.

Spotify was completely unhelpful. They took 30 minutes to say the same thing the warning email said.

They also told me they had no way to detect where the streams came from. That was untrue. I found them. Four months prior to sending me a warning. Well after I could've done something about it

Thank you so much!

I just reread this and, God, I sound like a douchebag, haha

I have! I wish there was more of that kind of stuff. I was one of the founding members of that genre back in the early 2000s but it kind of fizzled out. Now I'm too old to be cool

Same here!

Excellent, thank you. Will get them on queue tonight

Haha, yep. I've just finished recording my friend's kid's album. It's definitely not something I'd listen to if I didn't know him, but it was really fun to make, and my daughter loves it

I'm into anything really. My wife used to book house shows in the 90s for Midwest emo bands in Madison, WI. She tolerates my musical schizophrenia, haha

Got any favorite concept albums? Or just favorite albums in general? We are going on a 9 hour road trip this weekend and I'm gonna be putting together a bumch of stuff to listen to on the way.

It's not gonna stop me from looking for good ones!

Real life makes the best art. I got a little carried away with my last one though and think I got too personal. There's definitely a fine line
November 21, 2024 at 9:57 PM
Yep!
November 21, 2024 at 9:56 PM
Yep, I wasn't trying to knock any of the bigger names. I make music I like, primarily. I gather from listening to yours that you do too. I can't pin a particular "scene" or genre that you fit into. It's great

Couldn't agree more. Or at the very least, a theme. When I was in my 20s, I wrote an an album about growing up pentecostal, but put it in the perspective of a crazy gunfighter dude in the old west. I just love taking a story and manipulating it so it seems like fiction

By booted, I don't mean I did anything wrong. It just got a lot more accessible and became less of a niche thing. People stopped looking for the creative stuff and latched on to things with mass appeal
November 21, 2024 at 9:51 PM
Haha, that is the question. I gave up on social media a couple years ago after getting booted out of the scene I helped create in the early 2000s. I came here to see if there's a way to rebuild the kind of grassroots enthusiasm that existed in the early days of social media
