Während IMMER WIEDER am 20.09.2024 überall erscheinen wird, ist mein Album ANKER ab sofort nicht mehr bei Spotify und Apple Music verfügbar! Warum der Re-Release und warum das Entfernen des alten Albums? Aus zweierlei Gründen:
#Goodbye #Delisted #Anker #ImmerWieder #spotify #AppleMusic #Streaming #PayTheArtist #Bandcamp
During the #GGGW walk, a man pointed at my Rich Skipworth “Greyhound Fan Club” shirt and said “Hey I have that on my hat!”
Me: “Oh, you’re a fan of Rich Skipworth as well?”
Him: “Huh?”
Me: “Yeah, Rich Skipworth, the artist.”
Him: “Oh, I got this on Ali Express.”
Me: “Oh…I prefer the artist to actually get paid.”
Moment of silence. Him, visibly offended: “But you can’t beat $2.50!”
Rich Skipworth’s merch isn’t expensive, and he has frequent sales…
Heute ist International #JazzDay. Mir bedeutet diese Kunstform viel, weil sie ihrem Wesen nach divers, ermutigend, inklusiv ist. Sie lässt einen offenen Ausgang, Leben im Moment und Selbstausdruck zu. Es gibt Anknüpfungspunkte für das Erlernen demokratischer Werte und für interkulturelle Begegnungen.
Jazzmusiker:innen sollten angemessen vergütet werden. Empfehlungen für Honoraruntergrenzen gibt es von:

We have published our fee structure for artists on the Words Ireland website for many years.
Today, as part of the #SayWhatYouPay initiative launched by Match in the Dark, we are happy to display this information at the link below.

I was pretty jazzed to catch part of The Daily Show last night and see Trevor Noah do a (relatively) deep dive on exposing how little Spotify musicians for their work...
... particularly since my last blog post was about exactly the same thing, and its good to see the issue getting more attention from a platform his size:

I have not followed the link, but just in response to your toot I can say that I love #Bandcamp and I dont care about ( and never touch) #spotify!
I just love to be able to #payTheArtist / #payTheCreator. And I also love to dowload my purchased #mp3-files!
