Finally did a big Dark Entries splurge for what hopefully isn't actually the last Bandcamp Friday- Dax Pierson, Jasmine Infiniti, the restocked Solid Space LP, and their reissue of Severed Heads' Come Visit the Big Bigot. All fucking incredible, but you probably didn't need me to tell you that

my label keeps 82% of bandcamp revenue, including on bandcamp day, and the remaining 18% goes towards my debt i will never pay off :-)— Austra⁷ (@austratalks) July 20, 2021
― lukas, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 02:33 (two years ago) link
That would depend on the label, sadly.

Seems high
― ニツク (calstars), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 13:09 (two years ago) link
I doubt Shields has the same deal.
Wouldn't this be a "signed digital rights over to a label" issue rather than a Bandcamp one per se?
― Noel Emits, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 14:05 (two years ago) link
Yeah that's what it reads like, or that it was built into the label deal from the start.
― Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 14:07 (two years ago) link
Yes, bandcamp would have nothing to do with how the revenue is split up
She talks more about things here:
i released hirudin almost a year ago and it's streamed on spotify around 4 million times. based on a payout of $0.0038 per stream and taking into account my deal with my label, i've earned around $2662.38, all of which goes to my label debt, meaning i've pocketed $0.— Austra⁷ (@austratalks) July 20, 2021
― rob, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 14:08 (two years ago) link
So 20% is supposed to go to publishing? This shit is so confusing and everyone does it differently. I recently spent a lot of time looking into whether I should be getting any streaming revenue for a song that I produced for another artist, and in the end the answer I came up with is 'no', unless you specifically strike a deal that includes it. But since I do have half the publishing, it seems like I should be getting half of 20%, but I've never been able to make that happen.
― change display name (Jordan), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 14:47 (two years ago) link
Yeah I'm aware it's not Bandcamp's fault, just interested in what a typical digital sales revenue split looks like for artists. Name and shame maybe.

Self-plug: Got two new releases out today on my label.
https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a2784114773_10.jpg
Reels is a duo album by pianist Matthew Shipp and drummer Whit Dickey. They've been playing together off and on for over 30 years, in the David S. Ware Quartet, Shipp's own trio, and with saxophonist Ivo Perelman, but this is only their second duo session. It's beautiful. Get it.
https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a3479908077_16.jpg
Echolocation is a collaboration between cornet player Graham Haynes and electronic musician Submerged. If you like early '00s Techno Animal or stuff on the Electric Ladyland and Macro Dub Infection compilations, or music on the WordSound label, you'll like this. Very heavy beats, piercing horn, warped sounds to dive into and swim around in. Get it.

Don't be shy--I know you're all buying plenty of music to support artists, but still--let me buy you one more album/ep!
Since @Bandcamp started Bandcamp Fridays in 2020, Musicophilia and friends have bought folks over 200 digital LPs and EPs by Black musicians in these days where shows are not safe, and Spotify is paying literal pennies.Please don't be shy--join in!https://t.co/DyygbpiR5G— Musicophilia (@musicophiliamix) August 5, 2021
