Bandcamp UnitedToday, Epic Games’ sale of Bandcamp to Songtradr closed and at least half of Bandcamp’s staff was laid off. This is heartbreaking. We love our jobs, the platform we’ve built, and the Bandcamp community. We’re glad we have our union — coworkers who have each other’s backs. We’ll be moving together to decide our next steps. On Wednesday we return to the bargaining table with Epic Games, and we’ll keep you updated. Love and solidarity to the whole Bandcamp community. Thank you for your support.
Timo Peach@bandcampunited Hells, this is depressing. It is another fight for future values in the face of robot corporate soul selling - may you move with one resolve and scare the shite out of the right people.
