i've talked to a number of people lately who have haven't heard of bandcamp, and it always surprises me...i think of it as being ubiquitous now, but it seems like there's a real divide between music nerds (who will google "[band name] bandcamp" as a matter of course) and normal folks who have never encountered it.

Well when you say 'music, online, purchase directly' most people will think "Oh iTunes." Maybe Amazon.
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 12 October 2012 19:28 (eleven years ago) link
i think of Bandcamp kind of like the non-rap equivalent of Dat Piff, if you listen to certain stuff that's not going to be on iTunes, you familiarize yourself with site(s) like that, if not you're good w/ iTunes.

It's not going to change the world, but sometimes you just need big down-tuned riffs without anybody growling or caterwauling over them.

that Red Venice label is local to me, I'd not thought abt it for years until he emailed me the other day, seems he's been busy issuing cassettes of noise with gross songtitles
