Message Boards

The message boards have been replaced by Our Discord as it has a lot more features that allow us to communicate with each other in a better way.

You may still post on here and you will get some replies but we would really recommend you join us on Discord as it is a very vibrant community of independent musicians.


Please log in to post.

Would be cool to get a counter on each song to know how many plays it`s got from rotation..? Next to the comment counter perhaps?

You can see this if you are a Pro Member on the Pro User page but it`s not in track order so not quite as clear as you have suggested.

Categories are always tough, but my sort of avant-garde classical lives on the opposite side of the moon from all the classical tracks that I`ve heard in rotation so far. Actually what I`ve heard mostly sounds more "new age" than classical in any familiar sense. I understand that too many "genres" would Balkanize the site, but people are more likely to listen if the filters are meaningful. I suggest "avant-garde" or "experimental."

SolarPhasing - newsletter would be a great idea however it`s only me developing the site so I just don`t have to time to do it at the moment. Maybe as we grow and I don`t have to spend so much time on promotion I will be able to do this.

It`s a fine line as we need at least 100 tracks in each genre to make it worth doing otherwise if someone chooses and a sparsely populated genre they just end up hearing the same songs again and again.

I am going to look at expanding the genres in the new year with the possibility of making them hierarchical.

Think to ad Ambient as Genre, please :0) For now I don`t really know where to publish my work or where to listen artists with this genre. Electronic & EDM or World is not the good place for Ambient.

Also give us the possibility to change the genre of a track submitted.

An information newsletter about how is evolving the site will be great too.

Thank you and Best Regards.

We have a plan to add more granular categories when there are more members/tracks.

At the moment it would result in too much repetition in the more specific genres such as this.

Please keep spreading the word about the site so we can reach the point where this can happen!

Thanks!

Detect album codes and reject them. It`s kinda annyoing when you hit "play" and then suddenly 20minutes later you realize you listened to an album when you could listen to 3 more artists in this time.

I see, boils down to common preference. Really don`t want to be annoying but what about ah "play albums too" checkbox then? *g*

This one is a bit difficult because I have discussed this with people in the past and some of us actually like this feature.

If I am really enjoying the music I am happy to let the album continue playing. I`d rather enjoy the music than worry about getting another credit.

If I don`t like it then I`ll skip it before the 60 seconds.

Oh sorry, forgot to add that. Bandcamp I meant.

Which source are you talking about please (Spotify?) I thought I had done this but it may not have worked for all of them.

Can I request, again, that you install some sort of search mechanism. I was trying to find and listen to an artist that is playing live to see if I liked them enough to go see them. To look through the members list to try and find them is a bit ridiculous and I can`t find any other way to do it.

We (or at least me) are very grateful for all that work too!

This is something I will be looking into in the new year as it has been requested a few times.

In fact I want to do quite a lot in that area such as showing if someone if following you or not on different social platforms but it requires quite a lot of work.

any way of linking the chat box so when we click on a person we`re talking to we can listen to their music? if not maybe a search box on the members page?

This I have been planning to do for a long time but it requires me writing my own chat code as you can`t link the current one I am using.

Feature: being able to order my tracks by order of credits they have (particularly important if they have zero or less :-) )

Good idea!

Let me have a think about this and see what others think with a view to doing something in the new year.

Consider limiting the duration of the tracks submitted to the BIG ONE. Tracks of 7 or 8 minutes are too much to be put on rotation and a little too invasive. Sense of the thing is that everybody gets play time. I would put the limit somewhere around 3-4 minutes.

That is a very good point!

I will change the description and as more tracks get submitted to longer ones in there now will slowly get replaced.

Consider giving one extra credit for filling the anti-spam human verification... a prize to continuity

Thanks for the idea!

We used to give bonus credits but it breaks the system as people end up getting more credits than plays so overall the number of plays starts to go down.

It really was quite dramatic when we tried it earlier this year.

If we can start to attract fans that are just listening rather than putting their own tracks in play then we can reintroduce credits.

How about a place to blog? Something to be able to type out feelings and thoughts of the day would be really cool. Give the listeners a chance to connect a bit with the artists` everyday life and what they are up to.
