Distribution

[rollingstoner]

Hey , I'm currently using Distrokid and it's fr starting to affect my mental health . It’s been all good until I actually needed support on one of my releases … it’s crazy how little they seem to care about their artists . Completely soulless company . I’m looking to switch to a different distro . I’ve been checking out Amuse and Landr and so far Amuse seems like the best option ? Is there anyone that has used Amuse and or Landr that could share their opinions ? Thanks

Landr is bundled with samples and alot of vst's including some nice drum sequencers that I wrote some vcv rack selections for so that you can trigger them in odd ways exc... It also comes with some mixing exc so it is alot like computer music magazine with distribution and marketing thrown in. in a way only you are paying around $10 a month minus the subsidy you are getting by getting streams.

I don't have an opinion on amuse and if they offered other stuff and your budget could stand it doing both could be good. If muse was merged with lets says beat magazine and you were getting some computer music stuff I would say do both of them.... good luck hope it works out well for you.

I don't have experience with LANDR but can only speak highly of Amuse, I have been so surprised with how fast the delivery times are. With one of my songs, it was on Spotify less than a day after I released it through their app. I used to think about switching distributors as I felt there were not enough features to help with growth but this year they have released a lot more so I am happy and for the price I feel it's one of the best on the market.

I am open to using more than one distributer if it has something besides the disturbing in the package, It is true for distribution only they are less expensive but that isn't all that I was paying for when I bought the package. If the subscription includes more items then I may become more interested in the future.

Distrokid for me has been @ 8500 streams = $6.21. Not happy about that.

The stats for the payouts do not match the streaming stats but that is o.k. I have recieved 2.33 with much higher stream numbers but the numbers may be from Bangladesh or somewhere as a one hit wonder thing. I will advertise the Dexter U.S. brand with free plugins and vcv selections and patches so that may effect the hit and miss nature of things..

They say that I have .78 cents for 42,778 views for what is done in the darkness will become the light. It may have been the explosion at the end that made it almost go viral..
