It's official! #Liotia will no longer be on Spotify, Tidal or other mainstream streaming services. We've been considering this for a while and decided that if Spotify can't support independent musicians then why on earth should we be paying to advertise their services? Telling people to 'check us on Spotify' is frankly embarrassing.
It's much more viable to check us on radio or check us on Bandcamp/Faircamp/Mirlo/Wavlake etc.
In all this time we've only earned a few scraps from the streaming platforms, meanwhile PRS, Bandcamp, Mirlo and Wavlake have paid us considerably more, like in excess of 100x more. So in short... Fuck Spotify. Fuck them up the fucking fuck.
We'll be releasing some new music in the coming months and it will be fabulous! There's some genuinely exciting news on that front but all in good time...
We support independent music and an independent internet. :Nuclear:
Our whole back catalogue will be on offer the next Faircamp Friday and I'll finish getting the catalogue on Wavlake ASAP.
Cheers!
Probably earn more from zaps on this post than on Spotify!!

I wouldn’t be at all surprised… it won’t take much haha!
Isnt there a defining study of 2 musicians: one on Spotify with 10m downloads and zero income and another who earnt $1500 in a few months of a V4V podcast 2.0 platform. Something like that.
Without a doubt!! 😝
