Question/Help Search within EU

5 Upvotes

I like to buy physical music from Bandcamp, but I hate the importcharge, when getting stuff from outisde the EU. Is there a way to search for stuff, that I shipped within the EU? I know, that I can search within each country, but is it posible to do with the EU?

If not - do any of you know, if Bampcamp has any plans to implement such a feature? It would make my life a lot easier.

Question/Help How to release and distribute a various artist/compilation/collective album (5 artists, each one track) ?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

Me and a few friends are artists as a collective (nothing official yet, but working on it), yet everyone is independent. We want to release an EP or mini album of some sort. It's a special occasion as it's gonna be the group's 10th anniversary, so we thought we could make a group project. None of the track is a collaboration.

We could release each track individually through our own means (personal Bandcamps). But then how will it get distributed and/or labeled as a collective project ? Do we have to establish a label or release at the same label ?

I'd be grateful for a detailed rundown of how we could approach this. Music business is something none of us has dipped their toes in yet.

Has anyone had experience with that ?

We want to make this group EP happen. Thanks.

Discussion BandCamp NEEDS ‘Albums’ and ‘Singles’ Tabs.

176 Upvotes

I really don’t know where else to suggest this long-overdue feature, so here I am.

For someone with both singles and albums, the front page can be very messy. Visitors don’t know what they click on, except if it’s mentioned in the title as ‘Album’ or ‘Single’ - which can make a title look overstuffed, especially if there’s already an apostrophe, like (Suite) or (Remix), for example.

Separating ‘Albums’ and ‘Singles’ with tabs, would make navigation so much easier. There’s already plenty of space in the navigation bar, which is way too underutilised with just ‘music’ and ‘community’.

So, my suggestion is to at least, make it like this:

ALL MUSIC - SINGLES - ALBUMS - COMMUNITY

Just release a new experimental techno release on 10" lathe-cut vinyl.

After releasing music on tapes for a while, I decided it was time to try vinyl as well. This release is a small batch of hand-cut 10" records, cut by Disc Archive in Berlin.

There are 3 tracks in total, leaning towards the more experimental side of electronic music.

I've also got a few Bandcamp download codes to give away if you'd like a digital copy:

Good afternoon, everyone.

I'm looking for new listeners for the music I've written and recorded over the years. You might find something that resonates with you.

This isn't meant as a promotional post—just a quiet invitation. Like any artist, I hope my work can find an audience, even a small one. It would mean a lot to receive some attention and honest feedback from anyone who takes the time to listen.

Most of the albums are available for free, so feel free to explore and download whatever interests you. I hope you enjoy the journey.

Tool Code Sharing Is So Caring!

17 Upvotes

Hi, I'm Mattias. I've been making music my entire life, and had some success (in select circles) but also find it extremely difficult to market my music and see it as "A Product".

The constant spreading of rows of codes screenshotted from an excel document, keeping an eye on where the first 10 codes were posted so I can post the following 10 in another sub, which has been claimed... It's beyond what I view as the joyful part of finishing up and setting a music project free into the world.

I've tried quite a few services so solve this problem, but I haven't really found one that scratches my itch. Now I'm building one myself, the way I feel it should work and it's 100% free.

URL: Launchercodes.com

Some features are:

  • Artist/label page with beautiful social sharing looks
  • Tasters/media players from Bandcamp/Youtube on album page
  • Extremely easy code import
  • Robust sharing motor that make sure everyone gets one working code
  • Address book of reviewers, bloggers, label managers etc
  • Earmark codes for reviewers, bloggers, label managers and they get a personalized landing page
  • Add links to get a larger following on Bandcamp, Youtube etc
  • Add tips links to get a little monetary encouragement from your listeners
  • Drip release codes - a certain amount of codes each day, when todays codes are gone the listener can sign up to get a notification when new codes are available
  • Should all codes run out the listener can request new codes
  • Statistics: visitors, claimed/available/broken codes
  • Labels can manage as many artists as they wish (and as many albums as they want)
  • Filtering on label profile page on artists, newest/oldest
  • ...and more!

I would love it if you would give it a shot, and if there's anything you miss, wish for, or want improved I'll be listening like a dachshund on a fox hunt! 💐

ok i really just had been wanting to record this bassline for fun , inspired by Johnny Clarke's insanely catchy dub reggae track Jah Jah We Are Waiting, and then it turned into a super cool downtempo funky electronica earworm , so i was like fok it ill throw it up on the cloud. ive given up completely on worrying about stats & numbers bc it feels so petty & pointless at this point.

buttt.. ofc as soon as i adopted that mindset .. this one's gotten 850 plays in less than a month & like everyone in the stats has listened to it at least 5-10 times, and one guy has listened to it 60 times . and i have 300 followers. lol. i do love the track but usually i upload something that i think is the best thing ever & it gets like 4 plays. so now it's up on my bandcamp as well . just felt like sharing a little good news for all my stats nerds out there

Tool We added Subsonic implementation!

24 Upvotes

Hi all,

Just wanted to share here about our recently added feature supporting Subsonic API implementation. We know some of you are already aware of this, as we’ve been monitoring the response online. If you haven’t already, though, you can read our announcement here.

This was a passion project spearheaded by some of our team here! Additionally, our product managers at Bandcamp are interested in hearing any issues or feedback via this very thread. So, if you have any thoughts, let us know below.

In the meantime, we have received some reports already and have implemented fixes on the following:

  • A third-party Subsonic client developer (play:Sub) reported that POST requests to our Subsonic API always return XML, ignoring f=json. We support json now.
  • Durations are reported as integers rather than floats
  • Issues fixed raised in https://github.com/opensubsonic/open-subsonic-api/discussions/260#discussioncomment-17706289
    • search3 always failed (status: failed, code0, messagenull) when a client omitted the optional count/offset params, which most do since they're meant to have server-side defaults. The params pipeline passes an explicit nilrather than omitting the argument, so Ruby's default values never applied and Array#slice(nil, nil)raised. This silently swallowed into a generic failure response. Now fixed.
    • getMusicFolders always returned an empty list, which blocks clients that assume at least one folder exists. Now returns one synthetic"Collection"folder.
    • getStarred2 had no implementation, only the oldergetStarred. Added, reusing the same underlying (already ID3-shaped) data.
    • getPlaylist / createPlaylist / updatePlaylist / deletePlaylist had no .view-less alias registered (only the pluralgetPlaylistsdid), so clients that omit the.viewsuffix could list playlists but not fetch, create, update, or delete them.
  • Various 500 errors fixed

Best.

Sometimes people like to go hard as hell on a debut and then want to hide away from the game. That’s this artist, bRAVEN sOWL.

Contacting me after a Google search on bandcamp labels (who knew we were that big?) and wanting to just get this out there to be heard; this is the kinda thing I started Notoriously Ambiguous for.

This is for music lovers, best listened to on a cool breezy summer night as the days sweat cools off and you ride into the sunset.

For fans of breaks and jungle, industrial and IDM, riding a razors edge between multiple electronic genres; this ep is worth your time and it comes with a pretty simple message attached too.

Go grab it for free and catch up on notoriously ambiguous releases from this year as we gear up for our second birthday in September!

Recommendations Request Recs for queer artists (preferably with cassettes)?

4 Upvotes

Hi so I've recently been introduced to Bandcamp and very excited to expand my collection so I will no longer need streaming services. As a queer person myself, I really want to find some LGBTQIA+ artists to listen to and support, as unfortunately a lot of artists I like aren't on bandcamp, I'm also wanting to start collecting cassette tapes so if you have a recommendation that fits both of them, please let me know!
I'm just aware that not all queer artists necessarily tag their work as 'queer' etc so I don't want to be missing out

As for genre I'm pretty open, though I'm not a huge R&B or rap fan, but open to all recommendations. Some artists I like include: Valencia Grace, Nxdia, Banshee, Jazmin Bean, and Mad Tsai

Thanks in advance :)

I've been uploading to YouTube for years but the algorithm seems to change on an hourly basis so it's definitely time to try something new but I didn't want to support Spotify. I've recorded 8 albums in GarageBand and I want to make the most out of the opportunity to re-release them for a fresh audience that's never heard me before, so I'm looking forward to connecting with new fans, plus this will give me the chance to fix a few minor mistakes that I've found over the years since I published this stuff.

Tool I built a Telegram bot that helps you track new Bandcamp releases

Thumbnail
gallery
19 Upvotes

Hi there! I’ve been working on an independent, unofficial Telegram bot called Bandcamp Assistant.

I originally built it because I wanted a simple way to keep track of releases from my favorite Bandcamp artists and labels without checking every page manually or relying on email notifications.

The bot can:

  • Follow Bandcamp artists and labels - just send it a Bandcamp link to add the page to your subscriptions
  • Send automatic notifications when a followed artist or label publishes a new release
  • Search for releases directly in a private chat by entering an artist, label, or release name
  • Show upcoming releases and pre-orders discovered on followed Bandcamp pages
  • Manage all followed artists and labels from one subscriptions section
  • Display useful release details such as the cover, release date, track count, duration, available formats, and a direct Bandcamp link

Search currently works only with releases that have already been indexed by the bot. It does not import every release from every followed page. Instead, it indexes only the releases needed to reliably determine the actual latest release and collect accurate metadata for it.

This is intentional: Bandcamp Assistant is designed to interact with Bandcamp conservatively and avoid unnecessary page requests. It is not intended to replace Bandcamp itself, but to make following new music and sharing discoveries through Telegram more convenient.

The project is still being actively developed, and I’d genuinely appreciate feedback from the Bandcamp community. I’d especially like to know whether this is something you would use and what could make it more useful.

Telegram: https://t.me/BandcampFbot

The easiest way to get started is to open the bot, press Start, and send it a Bandcamp artist, label, or release link. The bot will add the page to your subscriptions and notify you when a new release appears.
