What is the “stem” in nostr:npub1stemstrls4f5plqeqkeq43gtjhtycuqd9w25v5r5z5ygaq2n2sjsd6mul5 mean?
A stem is an isolated track within a multitrack recording.
I kinda think the name ‘Stemstr’ is misleading… I was hoping people would post actual stems and allow others to add and remove-improve with their own versions.
Imagine uploading three files; a click track, guitar simple strumming chords. and a non professional vocal track. Accompanying that are some lyrics and thoughts on vibe hoped for of song. Others could them polish it into something ready for distribution. Any user could create or use any stem that’s been uploaded, and race-on to see who makes the best version, which would probably get the most sats.
That’s my vision… if I could code I’d build it.
This indeed was the initial intention. I think once the site is much more robust, and has more contributors, there is opportunity to either section the site (stemstr/created with stemstr), or to break off branding for finished products to a sister site. As it stands now everything uploaded to stemstr generates a “remix” button so technically you are being given permission, at least from the uploader, to use a clip of the 3:30 second song they just uploaded.
