How Bandcamp became the "headquarters" for video game soundtracks
-
They also do Bandcamp Fridays! These are the dates where all of the revenue goes directly to artists, without the usual 15% share for Bandcamp. Here is the list for this year if anyone's curious.
Gonna jump in and say if you want to support a small artist, and fairly active Lemmy user, I'm on Bandcamp and just posted week one of a two week track-a-day competition:
You can hear all the tracks so far here:
P. S. I'm only doing this because this is one of my most active times of the year!
Edit: y'all literally mention Bandcamp, but when someone posts that they're on Bandcamp they get downvoted? Cool, thanks for the support!

'ate Beatport
'ate Juno (because both charge extra for wav/aiff/flac)
Love Bandcamp.

People don't like ad's, even if it's just you mentioning your thing in a context that makes sense. It's always a slippery slope to reddit, meaning bots that try to sell you something when a post includes a similar keyword. Not to say that's what you are doing

Can you explain more on those artists? I can't find them and never saw anyone charging more for FLAC. Or is it outside of Bandcamp?

I don't care, it sounds good, I'll buy some of your stuff.

If you give an inch they'll take a mile.

As the other posted said, it's easy to see something like this and get the knee-jerk reaction of "stupid ads!", especially in a place like fediverse where many people are overly sensitive towards such possibility (I know I am). I'm always curious about new stuff to listen to so I'll make sure to check it out when I can.

I believe they are services

To be honest: I was a little butthurt when I made the edit, any listening you do I appreciate! I should have mentioned in my comment you can listen for free on SoundCloud.

Completely understandable. Getting annoyed or defensive is a pretty natural reaction when people just downvote and move on, without articulating their reasons. I get why people did it but I also understand the frustration.
Current state of social media can be a pretty draining experience.

Yeah, good luck getting me to use Bandcamp. Wavlake is where my producer, Neigsendoig, went ahead and posted his VGM soundtracks.

Beatport and Juno are both stores
