Bandcamp, the amazing independent online music store, is rolling out Bandcamp Live today, a ticketed livestreaming platform.
Bandcamp Ticketed Livestreaming
They will focus on ticketed shows, not free, and will aim to capitalize on their built-in global audience. Their revenue share will be 10% but will be waived until March 2021.
The platform will incorporate merch sales directly into the livestream, so users can browse items without having to leave the performance. Artists interested in participating can visit: Live | Bandcamp
It’s #BandcampFriday again… revenue-share fees are waived! Bandcamp Fridays were started back in March to support artists impacted by the pandemic, and in the past few months the music community has come together in a huge way: fans have bought more than $75 million worth of music and merch directly from artists and labels.

On Oct. 10th, 2016, DDEX announced the completion of the long-awaited Recording Information Notification standard (RIN), addressing the need to restore sound recording metadata (credits, liner notes, artwork) in the age of digital distribution.
Avid Pro Tools® with Sound Credit Tracker Plug-in
Sound Credit Tracker by Soundways, is a DAW plug-in that implements the RIN standard and allows users to enter and track performer and recording credits as they happen. Using the DDEX standard, the plug-in stores the metadata in a small, .RIN XML file, to be included and passed along with the project session files.
Ten years in the making, the RIN format comprises an XML file that standardizes the metadata describing all aspects of a recording project and sound recording. RIN is designed for Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) manufacturers to enable their users to capture and store essential metadata in a standard form at the point of creation of a musical work and/or sound recording.
Maureen Droney, Managing Director at The Recording Academy Producers & Engineers Wing (and a key member of the RIN Working Group) stated “RIN will facilitate crediting, ensuring that performers, producers, recording engineers are properly identified and paid for their contributions.”
Join me in recognizing all music creators who work #BehindTheRecord, an initiative to #GiveCredit where credit is due. These are the amazing people behind the album This Time, thank you all — let’s celebrate creators & bring music credits back. #WeAreMusic · Recording Academy/GRAMMYs
