down with streaming services
| Why focus on aesthetics on a music streaming/sharing platform?
| >>1059701 Would you rather listen to lo-fi music with:
Very fast flashing images with subway surfers and candy crush rnning in the background
OR
a girl reading in her apartment at sunset with headphones on
The environment in which you listen has a huge impact on the music. AMVs (anime music videos) make songs waaay better if they're made correctly. Porter Robinson's "Shelter", for example. That video helped make the song popular.
| It’s sort of like how taste is affected by your environment too I think.
| i am sorry for my absence

| I decided not to bring the laptop. i will keep this thread active with ideas tho.
Idea 1 : set up a 24/7 radio that plays music from the site ranging from more esoteric to popular songs. Higher a Jamaican to dj 18 hours a day

Be careful about streaming music without a license though. Depending on your country you might get a fine.
In Germany for example the law states that you're not even allowed to stream your own music that you made yourself without paying a license and 100% of the proceedings goes directly to the 4 biggest record labels. It's fucked.

I'm trying to facilitate more people downloading their own music like in the mixtape era.
This website is going to be primarily for unknown artists and just general music enjoyers.
| Idea 2 : have a prominent map on the site for people to connect locally.
Idea 3 : integrate Tumblr like system for all users
Refresh
| i am tired of streaming services and basically all centralization.
heres the idea : bandcamp but democratized. kinda like those old ghettoe mixtape platforms but with a large focus on aesthetics.
i will use this thread to document my progress. I have never done any website shit but i have a good feeling.
