A few words from the artists who've put codes up here.
GetMusic helps garner listens, sales and follows. It's been a huge help in a world where the social media platforms and algorithms tend to work against underground artists.
GetMusic.fm has been great for my followers and exposure. Had 12 Bandcamp followers for quite some time, and within a week am at 75 and counting! Great folks, great service, highly recommend for anyone who is looking for Bandcamp exposure! And yeah - the first round is free!
I have been using Get Music with a lot of success in my releases. But even if I didn't use it for my own music, I'd still come here for everyone else's music. It is the main place I score new music. The emails are always loaded with music I have never heard of. Makes me happy.
It has always been hard to grow on Bandcamp as an artist. The platform is amazing but growth is extremely slow and discrete. As soon as I discovered GetMusic and connected my Bandcamp account with my Album "Otto Vite" (Eight Lives), I got people coming to listen, download my release, and follow my account. After a couple of weeks on GetMusic, my follower count doubled, and I had a nice increase in plays too. Most importantly, I myself was able to discover some hidden gems and support small artists out there. Likely a platform I will use again (and again) in order to spotlight my upcoming Releases.
thanks for helping me and thanks for your services, ive got about 70 supporters now on bandcamp which is a beautiful thing trust me after working on a record for 3 years and being an unknown and getting that first bit of recognition and acceptance that you get when someone downloads your music via your site that makes it possible, thank you very much “getmusic” .Respect, peace and love to you all, Dave digger and the free factory. Also the support is great, i had a minor issue and it was sorted straight away
Using free codes to promote my band got me about 100 followers and 100 listeners on BandCamp and i spent about $12.00. So its worth it!
I honestly cannot remember how I functioned as an indie artist without GetMusic. In fact, the site does so much of the work for me, I've actually let my other promotional activities slide! For a long time I was a "Free" or "Pay What You Want" artist, but had little traction. Even though listeners getting codes through GetMusic is still technically free, there's a psychological reward when cashing tokens for music you'd normally pay for. Just by offering codes through GetMusic, my listeners have grown by 70% or more. Along with providing links to song downloads, GetMusic is constantly popping up on the socials with graphics of new releases, either solo or grouped with other new tracks. I myself am often drawn to new music thanks to these arresting graphics. GetMusic's stats are also great for reposting and reminding listeners of your newest tracks or albums. Along with Bandcamp, GetMusic is an essential tool for the indie artist.
After 24 hours of using GetMusic and some very modest promoting, 23 people have downloaded a copy of my album, "Who Goes There?" I was very enthused to see almost all the users were new. In addition to the downloads, I've also been receiving more streams than I usually do; very cool!
So, I'm doin' my music shi, right? And I realize that streaming is full of bs, so, I decided to put much more effort into my Bandcamp marketing. But I wasn't getting seen, it was taking a while for people to notice me, even with all the effort I was putting in. So, I looked up Bandcamp marketing on Google, and that lil Ai search thing told me about getmusic.fm. Later on, I decided that it could be pretty effective, as it worked for other albums (which I redeemed, of course). I put HeSoBased on getmusic.fm and slowly but surely, people were showing up. Soon, my album was in multiple collections, and I was gaining a lot of followers on Bandcamp. It's been around a month, and my music is getting some attention. Heck, I even got a couple of sales afterwards. Anyways, I got a mixtape to put out, check me out on Bandcamp, and try using getmusic.fm! - DottyB
