Only 3 releases were kinda worth it. As much as I love the idea of getting a record in the mail each month, I'm taking my money elsewhere (like, err, the record store). They need to curate the label way better. I haven't received anything that "rocks" or is "killer", only bland and generic indie/hip stuff by kids who struggle to play an instrument. Oh and most mixes are horrible.<br /><br />I like my labels to be dictatorships, curated by music lovers / nerds, not democracies based around voting and social media.jmdumashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06118998229425080600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625658930668891041.post-59528537551123677322014-05-19T14:06:08.241-07:002014-05-19T14:06:08.241-07:00im a subscriber, and let me tell you, it is worth...im a subscriber, and let me tell you, it is worth the 19.00 a month! I've enjoyed all the albums they've sent to me. It's cool that they release unsigned bands, and the bands get to keep the rights to their recordings. Plus, every month I get to discover a new band that I probably would not have otherwise, I'm adding to my vinyl collection every month, I'm helping support unsigned bands, and each release is limited edition (the pressings are of the highest quality.) Basically its a musical co-op, and you can vote on what you like and what you don't. Might not be for everyone, but I am highly satisfied with the service and the music.

I am trying to hear stories of people who have dealt with Feedbands first hand, as I find their website annoying cute and lacking too much information.<br /><br />I would like to hear from more musicians who have dealt with FB themselves and whether they thought it was worth it. I'm an independent electronic/pop and cannot afford to press my own vinyl. After writing FB a few times, I found out that the artist gets a sizable amount of vinyl (250 copies!) for themselves, too. This is a good thing. What I'm not fond of is that the music they stream stays on their app forever so anyone can find it or listen to it anytime, which kind of nixes the point of trying to sell it digitally. But getting all that vinyl pressed free of cost and available to subscribers still sounds like a great deal. <br /><br />Any artists out there care to comment? How much competition can I expect? What were your experiences dealing with them?<br />Their customer support were quick and helpful in their response but a bit too eager to get me to send my music to be curated.Snaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620964841698741891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625658930668891041.post-23937965149461197892013-05-04T21:48:56.251-07:002013-05-04T21:48:56.251-07:00Harsh, considering that there is a Feedband advert...Harsh, considering that there is a Feedband advertisement directly next to this blog post! I agree that Feedband sounds like a bit of a scam, and I also agree that the woman in the picture doesn't know how to hold a record. For a company so committed to vinyl, she sure does have grubby paws! She's also very tiny, making the 12" record seems enormous.<br /><br />While I agree that I hardly need Feedband to "curate" selections for me, I don't agree that the internet's ability to connect people to "the things they want" means that curation is no longer of value. The ability to open a browser doesn't give people any unique ability to discern quality music, or literature, or art... curators, anthologists, critics and DJs are still of value. In my most humble of opinions.patrokloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04126679174365972467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625658930668891041.post-21418708777745710212012-06-01T02:42:05.914-07:002012-06-01T02:42:05.914-07:00Tenacious rocks!
