Curious if this has been the case to any degree yet: “if podcasts steal music time (which they will) but the royalty pot remains set at its current share, then there will be fewer streams to share the royalty pot between. Hence, higher rates.”

Going through #StrangerThings4 🍿🐢 Did internet break my brain or is this season actually packed with scenes intentionally designed for GIPHY?

Our latest piece by @basgras + @cheriehu42 takes a closer look at @headless_chaos — a new work from @songcamp_, which is significant both as an ambitious, genre-fluid musical project, but also as a new blueprint for collective creativity and ownership:

Quite a few solid tips in this thread 👇

Conclusion so far: Pay attention to that social capital axis. Build a community, a few people at a time. Write songs that resonate, but also show in what ways it is valuable/cool for them to share your art with peers.

🎎 SOCIAL CAPITAL: Example: @andrzej_jozwik recommended my wife and I the latest LP by @norimyxxxo: We may not listen to trap much, but dig this record. a) It's a recommendation from a friend, b) It's a statement, considering how politically charged the lyrics are.

🎫 ENTERTAINMENT: Setting live concerts aside, how strong do your songs perform as a form of entertainment when compared to Netflix, Call of Duty, and Joe Rogan's podcast (conveniently available on Spotify)? On a brighter side, how about your Instagram feed?

🧰 UTILITY: A lo-fi hip hop track made for "music to code to" playlist might score high here, but most probably, unless you produce for movies/yoga/elevators, this isn't your strength. Note: writing songs about social or political causes doesn't make your music utilitarian.
