Hey guys,
I hope this is the right sub for this question. I see a lot of people just asking for feedback on their songs, but I would strictly like your advice on possible music distribution platforms.
I'm a small time musician, and have been making music for some time now. I am finishing up an album, which (ofcourse) I want to put out there for as many people to hear. I don't have the ambition of getting 10000's of hits. I only want my music to be easily available, for friends, family and others. Easy sharing.
In the past, I have used Soundcloud and Bandcamp. I am a big fan of Bandcamp, and love the way their platform works. The problem with bandcamp is that people outside of recording music don't generally know bandcamp and are therefore less likely to click on the links you share.
I have also seen that it is possible for me to put my music on spotify, iTunes, apple music.. You know, the big guys nowadays. Even though virtually no one knows of me.
The idea of having my music on there sounds appealing ofcourse. Therefore, this question. Has anyone been in the same situation? Which platforms did you choose, and what would you choose if you'd be in my position?
Thanks!
