I’m not advocating piracy as a way to support artists, but a way to fight against the big corps/streaming platforms/the system that just take the majority of revenue for themselves while hurting both the consumers and the creators. As I replied to other comments, I try to look for ways to directly support artists individually whenever I can.
The first time I heard this song
https://soundcloud.com/blacklabelnsd/mastadon-rip (MASTADON - RIP)
I was blown away at how insane it is, like how could anyone ever make something like this at all is bewildering to me. The song structure and sounds didn’t even make sense to me at first.
But now this genre of music is the thing I love the most. This song is my absolute favorite of all time.
The thing is, you barely support the artists you’re listening to when you use spotify.
Spotify doesn’t do shit for the artists.
I do when I can afford to, but you can’t really buy every song you listen to, can you?
I buy music on bandcamp/directly from artists all the time. I just dislike streaming services, as I always want to have the files, and the money artists get from them is abbyssmal anyway.
