Bandcamp について
Bandcamp は熱量ある音楽ファンがアーティストとつながり、ダイレクトにサポートすることができるオンライン版レコードショップ&音楽コミュニティです。
私たちの使命
Prince は自叙伝の執筆を始める際、協同執筆者に次のように伝えました:
音楽には癒しの力がある。まずそう書いてほしい。
彼が自叙伝のテーマとして掲げたこの言葉は、 Bandcamp の原動力を舵取りする大原則でもあります。音楽に癒しの力があるとすれば、できる限り多くのアーティストがその力を活用できるよう、手助けをするシステムが存在するべきです。だから私たちは、ファンがアーティストを直接サポートすることを容易にし、それによりファンが自ら愛する音楽のクリエーションに貢献し、またアーティストが音楽を創造し続けることを助ける方法として Bandcamp を立ち上げました。
Bandcamp のミッションは、音楽の癒しの力を広め、アーティストが音楽ファンからの直接的なサポートをとおして成長し、またファンが音楽の世界を探求するべく集うこと自体が、アーティストのクリエーションにつながるコミュニティを構築することです。

Always so much cool modern soul/jazz/traditonal music stuff on Bandcamp Radio I would never think to listen to otherwise
-
I have 10k streams on Spotify = 45$ in my pockets over the same period 7900 streams on Bandcamp generated 1100$ in sales That’s 30X the money/stream, even though BC doesn’t payout royalties on streaming. Like, it’s just that much better.
-
Poking through other people’s @Bandcamp collections is amazing. Like a digital version of leafing through your mate’s records.
-
Yessssss. @Bandcamp finally got a #carplay app. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
-
Bandcamp app w apple CarPlay compatibility making me want to park at one of these hills at sunset and slowly lose my mind to all these heavy ass jams
-
bandcamp is the only good music platform, no one can or will convince me otherwise. directly support fucking musicians
-
Use bandcamp. As musicians, far more money can be made there as opposed to streaming. With listeners having the ability to pay more than required, there’s an added level of gain too. I make things available everywhere to stream but point the most promo towards the bandcamp.
-
@Bandcamp is the best. It’s the only place that I make $. Money goes mostly to the artist, so it’s also where I make most of my purchases.
-
I just boycotted everything except Bandcamp. I made 20 times as much there as all streaming services combined.
-
ngl i’m hella thankful to be able to buy food from my bandcamp sales.
-
Bandcamp is my new favorite place. And while I might spend more money than I did paying once a month for streaming, I know where that money is going. Because if we don’t value the work of artists now, who will provide this musical joy for us later?
-
I get asked a lot about why I choose @Bandcamp to release my music. It’s simple, really. They don’t screw musicians. They get a fair cut for providing the service and the musicians get the rest. As a listener, you can get lossless audio downloads or stream from their free app.
-
I used to look forward to @Spotify’s Discover Weekly because they played stuff I’d not heard before. Lately it’s 90% familiar tunes. Thank goodness I have the @Bandcamp Weekly each Tuesday. Algorithm-free music discovery can’t be beat.
-
Pulitzer 2021 a Bandcamp Daily
-
Bandcamp all the way wherever possible! CD/Vinyl and a download I can revisit whenever I need to, more money to creatives and can download/play lossless format. Streaming is fine, but if you really love music you pay for it.
-
All these streaming services exist, and I just keep going back to @Bandcamp because I actually want to own my music and support artists in the process.
-
I consider Bandcamp reviews equally treasured as ‘mainstream’ press and I’m continually blown away by the quality, kindness and inventiveness of the writing 💖
-
a publicist asked if i post bandcamp items exclusively. the answer is no, but keep sending me your bandcamp links. i like to see artists getting paid. people are feeding their families on bandcamp. so many artists thriving in that space should let the industry know wassup.
-
Thank you everyone who made my bandcamp friday so great. I just have been crying for 24 hours straight. I genuinely am out of words and only have emotions now. Thank you again and again and again for believing in me more than I have myself for a very long time.
-
It warms my heart to see people supporting musicians and actually buying stuff on services like bandcamp ❤️
-
Shout out @Bandcamp for simply being the best platform for putting out music and supporting musicians
-
Bandcamp continues to be a little bright star in an otherwise pitch black sky. As we find ourselves again wondering how to navigate through a murky landscape, Bandcamp offers a beacon to the DIY musician and the fans that support them.
-
@BandCamp > Spotify/Apple Music 1. Higher % payout for artist. 2. Same week payout for artist. (Versus a 3 month wait period) 3. Direct artist to supporter communication. 4. New music notifications direct to fans. 5. Read #2 again.
-
One of the greatest things @Bandcamp did for me was turn me on to a lot of good music while I was in #Quarantine. I discovered 2020-2021 to be an amazing time for #Jazz and #AltCountry. Really. There are heavyweights putting out great music on #bandcamp! Big names, huge sounds!
-
in this increasingly exploitative environment, @bandcamp has continued to be a beacon of light, regularly waiving their revenue share during the pandemic in order to better support us as artists.
-
I think @Bandcamp’s a superb platform for musicians and fans alike and it’s continually developing new functionality for the benefit of all users.
-
Hey people that buy releases on Bandcamp that are ancient and all of 4 months old... thank you. We should all live beyond hype cycles more often.
-
@Bandcamp...kept a whole lot of artists and indie labels afloat during the pandemic, but have been playing that role for over a decade. Genuinely life changing.
-
Holy shit, I just noticed that legendary artist Uboa purchased my album on Bandcamp. The thought of one of my favorite musicians possibly having heard my own noise track is fucking amazing.
-
like even if bandcamp friday isn’t happening artists still make a ton more money from one purchase on bandcamp compared to streaming a couple of times on spotify and it REALLY goes a long way
-
this is a good time to remember that bandcamp, an independent way to distribute music, exists and it’s a great way to pay artists for their work
-
I will always fuck with bandcamp harder than Spotify. Bandcamp is the streaming platform of the people
-
I’ve said it before, and I will say it again: Bandcamp > literally everything else.
-
Went down the rabbit hole last night, sampling everything @Bandcamp suggested through “If you like [band], you may also like:” Wow, what gems it introduced to me.
-
I know @Bandcamp got a lot of deserved props for helping musicians with their BC Fridays (myself included), but I don’t know if they get nearly the amount of praise they deserve for the sheer diversity and depth of their writing. Extremely hip shit y’all
-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO just got an email that if you download the latest @Bandcamp app you can now listen to your collection while offline! THAT IS RAD!!! TYSM BANDCAMP!
-
bandcamp remains the 🐐
-
The Bandcamp app now allows for offline storage of music and I really think this should be highlighted as a BIG DEAL
-
the understated nature of bandcamp’s comms to its users never ceases to amaze me: “hey folks just wanted to let you know we added a great feature to the application we made for you that you can use for free okay thanks please keep enjoying the music love you bye”
-
I’ve made more today in music sales via bandcamp than I’ve made in streaming since 2015. Idk why I’m barely hopping on this bandcamp wagon now…
-
I am a @Bandcamp evangelist. Best platform out there to sell and be heard. They pay you almost immediately, provide a service for a reasonable fee and the platform is intuitive and easy to personalize. Everything else pales in comparison.
-
More than that, @bandcamp don’t pocket the money for a few months before paying it out in bigger chunks. The artist gets it the next day. So sales today = groceries and/or rent payments tomorrow. It’s not ‘like it was in the old days’ - for artists, it’s WAY better than
-
Food $200 Rent $800 Bandcamp Fridays $3,600 Utility $150 Someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. My family is dying...
-
I’m releasing a NFT (New Fucking Track) on @bandcamp next week
-
@Bandcamp Just discovered your incredible website. I can virtually choose any music genre/combination I personally like. And I can make purchases. Just a brilliant site.
-
WOW I JUST REALLY LOVE @Bandcamp!!!!! THAT’S IT. THAT’S THE TWEET.
-
I am absolutely and irrevocably addicted to the feeling of getting “Cha-Ching!” subject line emails from @Bandcamp
-
I would not even be able to support a pet turtle with what i make on Spotify they’re only out to exploit artists. @Bandcamp, on the other hand, has been amazing. i regularly use my bandcamp money to buy groceries.
-
It’s hard to keep from getting emotional and sentimental on @Bandcamp days... because it’s just so remarkable how supported we continue to be by our fans. When touring isn’t an option this is keeps us afloat. And we are so grateful.
-
This is a huge milestone, reflecting an indescribable impact on independent music. Thank you for continuing #BandcampFriday into 2021, @bandcamp.
-
Bandcamp is I think the only pure thing in the music industry. Hail Satan
-
can someone start a rumor on reddit that supporting artists on bandcamp is about to skyrocket in value
-
Bands on @Bandcamp: “Pay what you want!” Me: “Haha, you absolute fools!” *pays a minimum of $5 for a single track, or $25-30 for an EP* “Now you must accept all this money!”
-
I love when I order something through @Bandcamp and when it arrives it’s obvious that it came directly from the artist, not just a record label. Often with a handwritten note. Those are things I will treasure a lot more than CDs from Amazon.
-
BANDCAMP APPRECIATION TWEET thanks for establishing @bandcamp fridays. thanks for employing a great editorial dept. thanks for a thoughtful outlook on unranking lists of albums. thanks for supporting independent artists in the most direct way possible.
-
Despite not releasing anything other than a single in April and an album this week, neither one on a BC Friday, we had one of our best years just from the traffic these days created. 1000 people who bought from us on BC provided 5 times the payout of our 300,000 Spotify streams.
-
A model that has long worked, a company that used 2020 to outdo itself in standing up for indie artists. 👏 #BandcampFriday
-
Bandcamp 2020 hero
-
the story of hanukkah is that we thought we only had a few months of bandcamp friday left but instead it lasted through 2021
-
😍😍😍 thx for helping pay for my rent and groceries ✌️✌️✌️
-
This was very helpful to me and I’ll be a Bandcamp evangelist forever now.
-
bandcamp continues to fuck relentlessly
-
Bandcamp is the best part of this shit year
-
Today’s work music sorted, then! Sounds like a lot of REALLY good stuff on here, and I don’t know most of it.
-
The beauty of bandcamp is that there’s literally all kinds of music for you to listen to and enjoy. The cliche statement of “they don’t make music like this anymore” meets a crushing defeat when it comes to that platform.
-
Someone bought my digital album on @bandcamp for £10 and they gifted me an extra £90 on top of that. I cannot express what gestures like this mean to artists. This made my heart sing.
-
I would be willing to go so far as to say, @Bandcamp days are keeping musicians afloat during this time.
-
stan @Bandcamp you are our only hope
-
Is it me or has @Bandcamp been absolutely crushing 2020?
-
I keep waiting for Bandcamp to implode due to some greedy exec’s mishandling or sell out to some media conglomerate and completely change like every other seemingly progressive business venture I’ve ever liked on the internet and instead they keep being awesome.
-
.@Bandcamp are heroes of the pandemic.
-
Why is @bandcamp like the only media platform to not continually shit its pants with garbage like fleets and instead actually offer something new with tangible value?
-
This is what a music platform supporting artists rather than exploiting them looks like.
-
Covid-era Bandcamp is that kid who does 99% of the work for a group project
-
Bandcamp radio bandcamp tv bandcamp merch bandcamp healthcare bandcamp public transportation bandcamp take me to dinner bandcamp don’t forget to vote
-
Hey look @Bandcamp continues to do better than 99% of the music industry.
-
I fucking love bandcamp so much what the fuck
-
would love to see a single other corporation in music come through for artists like @bandcamp continues to do
-
One thing that makes me happy is just watching the crazy ticker-tape of everyone gripping random weird records on @bandcamp Friday- it’s mesmerizing, and affirming too- there is so much out there that I know nothing about!
-
last bandcamp day he got covid on tomorrow’s bandcamp day will he lose the presidency 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
-
Hey @Bandcamp I love the email you sent me “Tankcrimes September on Bandcamp” thank you, I’ll look forward to these. Love, Tankcrimes (the first label on Bandcamp) xoxo
-
I have said it before but it feels amazing when someone purchases my music from bandcamp. even if it’s 1$.. it’s really the greatest feeling. thank you @bandcamp for doing these artist fridays ♥️♥️ so much love xoxoxo ♥️♥️
-
As a musician, I’m glad Spotify exists & that my songs are there. But I have a RELATIONSHIP with Bandcamp- a good one. For me, Spotify’s an app; @Bandcamp is community. My Spotify presence=determined by digital distro. My Bandcamp presence=actually me.
-
There were some nights @Bandcamp money helped me eat. Thanks y’all 😭😭
-
The @Bandcamp app is incredible. Holy shit.
-
Today I was on a panel for a high school journalism class and one of the kids told me finding stuff on @Bandcamp as a kid had the biggest influence on how he thinks about music. Some things in America still work!
-
@Bandcamp, what can I say, even their customer service is a pleasure.
-
Thanks for all the support on @Bandcamp yesterday! Yall showed out for real! I appreciate you. You’re helping me fund more music stuff. Like new equipment and beats
-
I want to hug everyone buying stuff on @Bandcamp today, but I won’t because coronavirus. Stay safe and healthy out there my fellow music lovers! And wear a gd mask!
-
Bandcamp has been an absolute beacon of light during this lockdown shit for me. Even when Bandcamp day is over, getting the odd fiver or tenner here and there helps. Plus knowing folk are into music you’ve put out on a whim, with no label approval, is a pick me up. Heroes.
-
This company actually seems to give a fuck about musicians. Purchase your music from @Bandcamp and you’re supporting artists the world over.
-
Thank you for all your purchases. As a result of your generosity we have just donated $475.19 to @NAACP Legal Defense Fund and £400 + Gift Aid to The @RunnymedeTrust. Kudos to Bandcamp for planting the seed. #BlackLivesMatter
-
Every time you buy music from an artist on @Bandcamp, you are making a micro-investment in their career and ability to put food on the table and keep a roof over their head. It is that simple.
-
With your help, the single day total for donations to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund via folks picking up the Telekompilation yesterday is over $1800. With Bandcamp kicking in their end the total is well over $2000.
-
@Bandcamp has emerged as the most progressive, honest, equitable, rich music platform on the web. It’s became the closest thing for me to buying directly from the artist. Sometimes i exchange messages with the artist. It’s a great feeling. thank you.
-
a small but real thing i love about @Bandcamp: when the music’s over, there’s no thirsty algorithm automatically playing the next track/artist/album it’s determined that i need to hear.
-
@bandcamp’s revenue share is way more than fair. I’m totally happy for them to get their percentage, given what an incredible service they provide. Don’t save all your shopping for one day a month ♥️ Now you’ve discovered Bandcamp, make it your home :)
-
Bandcamp Appreciation Tweet. Let’s normalize buying music instead of relying purely on streaming y’all
-
Musical response to crisis, 1985: Get lots of celebs in a studio to sing one line apiece of a goopy song. Musical response to crises, 2020: @Bandcamp waives fees; many local musicians pledge receipts to good causes. This might actually be something at which 2020 is winning.
-
It’s unreal how much the music industry needs an overhaul when there’s only ONE company doing the right thing and paying artists what they deserve.
-
After a recent @Bandcamp Day, D.C. punk vet Chad Clark says his label sent him “the most I’ve been paid for recorded music in one payment ever in my life”
-
the only music ‘industry’ left is @Bandcamp. Reaching beyond any other industry leader. always.
-
Every time a reasonably established band joins @Bandcamp an angel gets its wings
-
I’d given up on making anything on music, but I just checked my bandcamp dashboard for the first time... and wow? Holy, wow, ok, I'm going to keep doing this, then. Thank you to everyone who supports working artists!
-
You know what, owning physical media like vinyl or cassette has always been super, super important to me, but I get the same joy holding my new whatever as I get scrolling my bandcamp library, just looking at my virtual collection
-
My favourite @bandcamp emails are the ones where it shows when people buy music after digging through your purchases... 🥰
-
At this point in time and space, I’m pretty comfortable turning over pandemic response duties to @Bandcamp
-
@Bandcamp I made 100x more on May 1st via bandcamp than the last 5+ years on Spotify.
-
You really set the standard for how a music service can and should operate. Thank you, @bandcamp.
-
I made more money from @Bandcamp on May 1st, 2020 than I have from Spotify in their entire existence.
-
.@Bandcamp is for life, not just for ‘Bandcamp Day.’ ♥️
-
Were it not for @Bandcamp’s backbone and its foresight in creating a living gallery for music makers and music listeners, music might look a little different today.
-
Congratulations & massive thanks to @Bandcamp today So strange in these times to feel like a music delivery company is on the same side as you!! You’ve made it actually possible for people to pay their rent today Especially brilliant in this mental time Thanks 🙏
-
okay, three more things I love about @Bandcamp : -IT WAITS FOR YOU TO CLICK TO START PLAYING MUSIC. absolutely no autoplay garbage. -when a record is done, it doesn’t start playing some random-ass garbage you don’t want to hear -NO FUCKING ADS ANYWHERE, EVER
-
The most amazing thing about @Bandcamp is when people pay more money than you’ve asked for the release. Happens a LOT. Disproves a lot of cynical things the music industry presumed about music listeners. A lot of people who love music WANT THE MUSICIANS TO SURVIVE.
-
happy may day buy music on bandcamp or i will kill you
-
thanks again to @Bandcamp for so obviously loving and caring about what they do and the artists on their platform.
-
So bandcamp pretty much set up a record store day that actually benefits artists very directly and immediately and also inspires them to share something new, old, forgotten, etc.? sweet
-
I love Bandcamp so much, i could almost write Bandcamp fan-fic
-
@Bandcamp pays our rent each year. To do the same through spotify, I’d need literally 100s of 1000s of people listening to me basically nonstop. Millions of streams. Instead, I have... 265 subscribers! Yup. That’s it. Them and the people who buy individual albums pay our
-
Bandcamp stay winning because of how they highlight relatively underground music and how the artist gets a huge share of the sale revenue
-
Bandcamp has detailed a plan to waive their revenue shares to help struggling artists during the #coronavirus pandemic. Thank you, @Bandcamp, for standing up for creators when it matters most! #StandCreative
-
bandcamp, i love u never stop
-
Bandcamp continues to be the only space online for musicians that is actively working to support artists. Spotify and its “why don't you just donate more of your money” nonsense can go kick rocks.
-
see @Spotify this is how you help artists, not with some shitty tip jar. Hats off to @Bandcamp as always, the best platform for musicians. ❤️❤️❤️
-
@Bandcamp, you are legends. Thank you for providing a platform for musicians that supports musicians 🙌
-
Yo @Bandcamp is seriously the fucken best. Not only have they waived their fees previously during all this, and doing it Friday, they are ALSO doing it first fridays of June and July. I know a lot of people/labels who have been literally saved because of these gestures❤️❤️❤️❤️
-
I love bandcamp so much ❤️
-
Gosh darn it, Bandcamp, you’re great.
-
Continuously blown away by @Bandcamp’s support of independent artists 👌 They’re waiving their revenue share every first Friday of the month through July!! 😵
-
Bandcamp are saints
-
This is so cool of Bandcamp that it makes me want to buy a bunch of stuff when they *are* getting a cut, to reward them.
-
.@Bandcamp showing all other platforms how it’s done. AGAIN.
-
how is bandcamp the only good website???
-
.@Bandcamp is my favorite superhero
-
bandcamp is the only good website
-
Kind of wild that @Bandcamp is *still* the only major platform finding ways to divert more revenue to the artists that are the foundation of their business
-
I think I speak for all musicians when I say that “This was my first @Bandcamp purchase!” is a very sweet message to receive. I am grateful. Bandcamp is an ecosystem based on passion and connection and it feels so good to be a part of it.
-
@Bandcamp I love you.
-
@Bandcamp really talks the talk when it comes to being pro-artist.
-
Bandcamp’s constant documentation of scenes the world over, particularly ones utterly unfamiliar to the average English speaking music fan, is one of my absolute favorite things they do.
-
When someone pays for my album on bandcamp (despite it streaming free everywhere) it genuinely makes my day.
-
Love @Bandcamp. The variety of music available on it is incredible and the quality of the recordings is stunning. It offers newcomers and more obscure artists the chance to shine with their creativity.
-
Spotify is great, but @Bandcamp is just awesome. That’s where real independent music is.
-
Nah all jokes aside, I’ve become sexually attracted to the sound the Bandcamp artist app makes whenever you get a new sale
-
@Bandcamp in case you don’t hear this enough, the indie artist community appreciates you and all you do. ✌🏽
-
Bandcamp is really the best music platform out there, I just go through their recommendations for maybe 10 minutes a day and end up with a massive backlog of albums to explore
-
In the last 2 months @Bandcamp has paid me 1000% more money than the government and 400% the amount I have ever received from a label
-
great news from @Bandcamp this morning! So glad to be part of their community. For myself and so many others at the moment their support means a lot! Cheers Bandcamp! 🍻
-
Bandcamp is the way forward for us all.
-
I have made more money selling music through Bandcamp in one month than I did an entire three years of digital distribution.
-
it doesn’t make sense not to have your music on a platform that gives you the highest cut if people decide to purchase. @Bandcamp is literally incredible, and one of the only companies that is dedicated to supporting artists
-
It seems like @Bandcamp are the only platform that genuinely care if artists have food on their tables or not.
-
Streaming services = put music thru a distributor, wait up to 3 weeks for release, release music, wait 3 months for them to account to your distributor and then up to 30 days for distro to account to you. Bandcamp = upload music, sell instantly, payment to paypal within hours.
-
@Bandcamp for president!
-
we don’t deserve bandcamp [Yes you do --Ed.]
-
just buy music from bandcamp if you’re able to streaming is absolute shit
-
Just @Bandcamp being absolute rides yet again 💙🤘
-
We all need to buy @Bandcamp a bloody cold one when this is done 🍺
-
Just did a 3 week long grocery run for my family after being inside for weeks! Thank god for everyone who purchased my music via @Bandcamp 🙏🏾 Thank you 🙏🏾
-
Bandcamp is so awesome and sometimes when I think “the modern age is trash” the first thing I think as I'm coming to my senses is “but hold up, Bandcamp”
-
The only ethical music platform right now. Ditch Spotify and support your favourite artists directly who are bracing for the worst times ahead this very moment...
-
Hello all non-musicians, campaign peeps, music fans! @Bandcamp is EXCELLENT, their moral standards are HIGH, and their overhead is LOW. On Friday, 100% of your digital purchase goes directly to the independent artist who has music for sale here. Support musicians HERE, it is REAL
-
at this point i’d honestly go to war for Bandcamp
-
SO, if Bad Bunny isn't too good for @Bandcamp , you shouldn't be either.
-
One of my favorite things is discovering new music by album cover on the @Bandcamp “Selling right now” feed
-
Setting a custom price of 6.66 in bandcamp highlights it and sets a little horns emoji, and I think this is really gonna carry me through 2020.
-
I spent $844.98 on @Bandcamp this year. Damn proud of it, I hope next year to spend more on music than coffee.
-
bandcamp has made finding new bands so easy and is how i constantly post about bands you’ve never heard of that eventually blow up
-
I want someone to look at me the way I look at my @Bandcamp wishlist
-
Big up @bandcamp for being a shining light in the age of digital music ❤️
-
Yo @Bandcamp really the undisputed champ for supporting artists... literally who else sends you payouts on a SUNDAY 😍
-
Been busy on @Bandcamp again this year. Seems like I hear something brilliant there daily. The exposure they give to truly brilliant less-known artists, and how they enable directly supporting those artists, has been revolutionary for me.
-
Thank you @bandcamp Daily writers & editors for pushing back against consensus and helping to TRULY champion the kind of creative, inspiring music that still often remains hidden from the mainstream. If you need proof that musicians are still dreamers..
-
Once again, know that @Bandcamp is a god-blessed miracle.
-
one dope thing about the @bandcamp platform is the ability for listeners who purchase to leave comments/messages. i’ve been receiving lots of positive words as accompaniment to the much needed and appreciated resources. those messages help maintain the mental fortitude.
-
Bandcamp is the best because they include listen + purchase links, follow buttons AND a list of the physical items for sale on their year end lists. They sure do know how to support artists <3
-
Thank god for @Bandcamp that brought us 10 times more than all streaming platforms combined. If you really want to support #music consider spending your $$ on #bandcamp.
-
@sad13 @TheLastLastOne in five years on spotify we made $249. in that same amount of time on bandcamp we made thousands, enough to repress records and actually be in a studio. wild.
-
The new @Bandcamp Daily layout is outstanding. Easy to navigate, easy to dive deep into exceptional articles by great writers, easy to listen to music while reading. Standing ovation to the folks who made this happen. Please go visit the site and check it out.
-
we love @Bandcamp even more than we love baby yoda
-
I love @bandcamp. Perfect website. Great community. They’ve been holding me down for a decade.
-
New @Bandcamp Daily layout is looking so so nice. Congrats to their team on the re-design and grateful always for the tremendous music writing happening there. Bandcamp forever.
-
@Bandcamp is for fans, it’s not for lean-back listeners. It’s for people who love artists and want to support them directly - that is not and will never be a mainstream attitude.
-
Shoutout to everyone buying music through my @Bandcamp page- for me it’s the best way to help support more production in the future since I actually get support through it, so thanks again- sending positive energy, beats and love 🙏🏼 ✌️ ❤️ 🎵 y’all follow
-
In like 100 years of using Bandcamp I can’t believe I only just clocked that those “New release from X” emails are actually worth checking. Filter them out of your inbox and into a separate folder and it’s like a personalised record store that only sells music you like. Mad
-
Having worked with two digital distributors now, shoutout to @bandcamp for being consistently easy breezy to work with, letting me release music on my own terms, never giving me nightmares for fear of having my release get bounced back cause of some arbitrary rules. Love y’all ❤️
-
Shout out to @Bandcamp for keeping maxi singles alive.
-
I could literally spend days on @Bandcamp discovering new music. It’s like an ocean of gems... If they’re ever hiring, they needn’t look any further! 😃
-
Currently on the playground, letting customers know that their order is on the way. God bless the @Bandcamp app
-
.@Bandcamp is such an empowering, intimate platform for artists. The ability to communicate directly with passionate music fans without the din of twitter / fb / insta is priceless.
-
Love to Bandcamp for building a great platform, lovingly and expertly curated, that treats artists fairly. 🙌
-
Thank you @Bandcamp for all the amazing work ya’ll do to support independent and marginalized artists. Excited for the future of the platform. Keep up the great work! 👏👏👏💖
-
hot damn! @Bandcamp is the only page I know where I actually like to read through the help center stuff! Good job!
-
Someone just came on our @Bandcamp and bought 1 of everything. 1ep, 1Album 1T-shirt... Honestly it’s not a money thing at all, it’s just we felt respected and that is.... goosebumps tbh.
-
Just left the @Bandcamp meet up in Dalston. Can confirm they are good people, doing good things for the future of the music industry.
-
Out of nowhere more people have been swinging by my @Bandcamp page, and they’re leaving super sweet comments and sending me really kind messages. I’ve gotten so used to the world of ‘🙏🏼’ reactions, and getting to chat with people has been such a relief. Thanks everybody ❤️
-
give it up for @Bandcamp literally doing everything right - servicing artists, employee writers, and paaaaaying everyone WHAT THEY DESERVE. now they’re financing and fulfilling vinyl pressings? I LOVE Y’ALL! SPEND YOUR MONEY THERE!
-
Bandcamp only takes 15% of every album sale and they still make millions every year. If you cop an album for $10, the artist still walks away with $8.50. Always ALWAYS bet on @Bandcamp giving artists what they deserve
-
Respect to Bandcamp for not succumbing to the trap of redesigning their website unnecessarily. So many other sites destroyed their community by changing things that didn’t need to. 10 years later, it’s still the cleanest, most direct design. Minimal aesthetics, max functionality
-
If I have/adopt babies they are definitely getting a @bandcamp allowance

idk how @Bandcamp’s writing staff finds so many artists that even we haven’t heard of, but I love it. So excited to listen through these and find some gems.
-
@bandcamp has been leading me down the most rewarding musical wormholes lately. 🙏
-
My drug of choice is the dopamine rush I get when @Bandcamp’s “cha-ching!” notification pops up on my phone.
-
i don’t even remember how I found music before @Bandcamp anymore
-
All I’m saying is the @Bandcamp app is free and lets you listen to your collection with your phone closed while supporting indie music artists. 💅🏻
-
@Spotify @amazon @AOC @SenSanders @SenWarren @CoryBooker @KamalaHarris @amyklobuchar @SenGillibrand All hail @Bandcamp No one has ever tried to buy one of my songs for .003¢ on there.
-
literally buying my groceries with @Bandcamp money - if you’ve purchased music from my page, I thank you sincerely, because food is nice
-
Bandcamp is more important to the growth of music then Spotify or any streaming platform, period!
-
feels goood to find killer music to fill dj sets w/ on @bandcamp and be able to support the artist directly - even better when the artist says their day was made too, because someone bought their music🤘😊 🔥 spread the loveee
-
I love bandcamp. I think we’re heading into a world where people will stop expecting to get whatever they want for nothing and artists will start getting paid again.
-
Thanks everyone. You should check out my soundcloud. If I ever used it. Which I don’t. Coz I’m on MF @Bandcamp
-
why stream anything on spotify when you can just use bandcamp thank you for coming to my ted talk
-
Now feels like a good time to give a shoutout to @Bandcamp for being the most artist-friendly platform in a vast ocean of garbage.
-
I think I just want @bandcamp gift cards and #beer for Christmas
-
shout out @Bandcamp always paying out on time.
-
i have a theory that when i buy music from @Bandcamp i become more sexier. i have a theory that this works for everyone.
-
id like to give a quick shout out to @Bandcamp and moreso all of the artists on it. I get almost 100% of my music from this site and it’s often artists who have less than 100 supporters. I know my $$$ isn’t much but IMO bc is the best venue for new artist discovery and support
-
Happiness is seeing ‘complete listens’ in your @BandCamp stats.
-
Just discovered the “loading please wait...” animation in the @Bandcamp app. Ridiculously dope! Makes me wish my broadband connection was waaaay worse.
-
The new single was announced 3 days ago. In that time, I’ve had 17 pre-orders on @Bandcamp and only 4 tapes are left! It’s kinda mindboggling. Wasn’t planning on trying to sell out before the release day, but I guess we’ll see what happens! Thank you!
-
There is no sweeter email subject than “You’ve Got Money from @Bandcamp”
-
.@Bandcamp is an all around fantastic company. They’ve always been easy and fun to work with and they always answer emails… They make it look easy (it’s not).
-
It’s nice to know genuine music lovers can still have a place to discover new and non mainstream music on @Bandcamp their editorial is so stellar - happy to see one place not just covering the same 15 artists all the other sites do. #supportartists
-
I am so late to the party here, but @Bandcamp is an incredible way to discover new music. I’ve been in such a Google Play rut lately.
-
You know it’s hard enough being an artist in an industry that 100% exploits musicians; they also have to deal w album reviewers who shit on people’s hard work like it’s some kind of sport. Instead read any editorial writings by @Bandcamp which have been absolutely excellent
-
although bless @Bandcamp for giving me a platform to get paid for my music and to directly pay artists and receive their music in the highest quality as they intended.
-
Let’s talk about @Bandcamp. bc has evolved over the past 18 months into a sales juggernaut for indie labels and artists. Plus, they have the best music editorial online - period. Their deep dive stories and daily picks could keep you engaged with music every day for hours.
-
Bandcamp is like the farmer’s market of music
-
@Bandcamp “Cha-ching” emails & notifications are life.
-
One of the cool things about this job is getting Bandcamp purchase notifications for overlooked albums from 10+ years ago.
-
I think the thing that really separates @Bandcamp from other streaming platforms is literally everything they do
-
I mean this with all due respect to anyone in the entertainment business, but the @Bandcamp app is the best streaming service on Earth.
-
nothin’ like getting the ol ChaChing!!! email from @Bandcamp
-
.@Bandcamp is the only entity that can email me fifteen times a day and I don’t mind.
-
Yeah yeah yeah Spotify is a corporate exploiter designed to funnel wealth from indies to major labels. Now let’s get on with celebrating the existence of @bandcamp whose editorials are awesome, who share fairly with artists and often donate their profits to charity #goodindustry
-
when people i don’t know leave kind reviews of my music on @Bandcamp or send me messages about how much they like what i make it makes me feel so happy. like people i don’t know actually made time in their busy lives to listen to something i made?!? then say nice things?!
-
@bandcamp app still number 1 app at doing the lords work with keeping up with underground releases. Some talented people out here in all spectrums of music 🙌🏽
-
Yo: No te lleves mi dinero @Bandcamp no me queda mucho. Bandcamp: Ltd Edition White Vinyl Bundle & T Shirt Yo: No, sí llévatelo.
-
wish bandcamp could replace twitter
-
Wow, how did @bandcamp become so indispensable? Pretty much every band that plays your local music club is on here. Also that weird band from a country you’ve never visited that you watched at 4am on Youtube.
-
@bandcamp has made a huge impact on new music for me. I did not go looking for new music for years. Now my son, a musician, is introducing me to all sorts of new music. Between him and @bandcamp, I am finding something new and awesome every day!
-
Without @Bandcamp I would not be able to produce a weekly radio show. So listen up when they talk.
-
For a while, bandcamp single handedly kept my rent paid. Nothing but respect for my president
-
Please don’t change @Bandcamp, you’re the only flicker of hope for independent artists these days. ☑️
-
Soundcloud was tight but Bandcamp what really put food on my table and drugs in my system when I started out. They community unrivaled.
-
I love everything about @Bandcamp. One of the best streaming sites and places to read/learn about new music
-
The @Bandcamp app is the best thing that ever happened to me musically 🙏🏿
-
Man, feels great to wake up to random purchases from around the world of this music I’ve worked so tirelessly on. Thank you to anyone supporting these two releases and to @Bandcamp for giving us this platform.
-
I’m gonna take a little time to throw out some love for @Bandcamp. For you game composer (film composer?) people out there, get on it. Bandcamp has allowed me the tools to cleanly, beautifully post my music on my website and make it accessible.
-
The @Bandcamp discover tool rules. Just this week it’s led to purchases of new Vasudeva, Raf Irrisari, Stray Theories, Liminal, Clarice Jensen, THESIS, Moss Covered Technology..I could go on. We’re drowning in amazing music these days. BC makes it easy to support it all - do it!
-
every dollar earned from this release will be invested back into other artists on @Bandcamp. Y’all have made me feel amazing and I want to pass it forward ❤
-
My new fav music discovery method is going to Bandcamp’s “New and Notable” and pressing play. It’s like a community radio DJ who has wide-ranging and good taste.
-
Had a blast meeting some excellent folks from @Bandcamp tonight. I’m really excited for the future of the platform ❤️
-
.@bandcamp please don’t change. You’re perfect.
-
I gave out $100 in @Bandcamp gift cards for gifts this year because I love that website too dang much
-
This marks the first month I am able to pay rent on @Bandcamp sales alone. Thank you all so very much!
-
super honored to be on @Bandcamp top 20 of 2017. they’ve emerged as such a cool fresh voice that still feels like a great service to artists -- #bandcampdaily seems truly invested with helping ppl discover instead of trying to be some sort of brand for its own sake. luv it!
-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHIT @Bandcamp HAS GIFT CARDS NOW YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😱😵😍
-
I love you @Bandcamp. You are a true friend to indie artists. Stay classy.

bandcamp is such a miracle treasure trove
-
Just imagined my life without the @Bandcamp app for a second and it was horrible
-
Endless love to @Bandcamp for using their platform to do good things in this world.
-
@Bandcamp Daily is like the National Geographic of music
-
the beauty of Bandcamp is not NEEDING a label. I’ve made more independently on there than any other outlet
-
In love with Bandcamp --best FAQ ever, ever. Where were you the rest of my life?
-
I’m loving Bandcamp. Very clean and revolutionary. This might just be the next best way to distribute music.
-
Seriously though, I don’t think I’ve ever seen another music store that gets it as well as Bandcamp does. The more I see the more I like.
-
Okay...maybe I’m late on this, but this site is totally awesome. If you’re an artist, go watch the vid...http://bandcamp.com/
-
This place is ILL for sharing music
-
we love bandcamp it’s genius
-
holy shit i just fell in love with a new website (for REAL musicians, despite its name): bandcamp.com. so much better than the others.
-
Can I just say that bandcamp is amazing??
-
I love @bandcamp so much. i could read their FAQs all day - Musicians not on bandcamp are DOING IT WRONG
-
bandcamp seems like the coolest thing ever for any band!
-
Early days yet but I think Bandcamp.com is going to a great thing for indie bands and muso’s selling digital downloads.
-
we’ve been there: myspace, facebook, reverbnation. but the cleanest way to publish music is really bandcamp. #cuttochase
-
bandcamp.com is so cool it’s going to make me start another band asap.
-
i love bandcamp for hosting music - free, easy, nice and you can embed the player in wp.
-
musicos, Bandcamp is IT. 10 mins to create page, uploaded .wavs, & did better in 1 day than iTunes in 2 mos. nutty!
-
Wow, really impressed with Bandcamp. Clean, easy, free, song stats... Looks great for new bands!
-
I think I’ma put all my crap up on bandcamp. Seems clean, easy to use, punter-friendly, etc. pay-what-you-like too, which is optimal.
-
any muso’s out there on www.bandcamp.com, its seriously cool, you should check it out....
-
holy shit, i love this bandcamp.com. FLAC? I’m in!
-
bands looking for a place to host their music, check out it’s free, and very saucy.
-
I freaking love how Bandcamp goes about their business. One of my favourite Music2.0 startups.
-
I just discovered the defender easter egg :) Could Bandcamp be any more awesome?
-
To all the world: www.bandcamp.com is awesome.

Bandcamp.com is dope.
-
Loving Bandcamp.com! They just got me VERY excited.
