For me it's more important to get my music out there than to make money right away.

I've never thought about if that makes it harder for others to charge for their music but I don't think so. Honestly selling my music and making albums wasn't even originally part of my plan, and I wanted to abandon it after my first album. I get more out of making shorter, less refined songs for YT

nostr:npub1zm984gudhgegah5gwljaql26ut7cn6pn92fj4r9h9h0g60asr7zsdkreau do you "get more" in streaming revenue or rather, in personal satisfaction?

Priorities are always.. music must be made, I must make it, I like music, I like making it... but I like to have money to live.

I guess... to be honest, I am short on both enjoying the process of making music and money at the moment.

But collabs are always envigorating, to the creative soul. And I have a new job prospect at a guitar shop. So.. philosophical thought time.

nostr:npub1hd2rzs04wqq4pqavyr9dnmczg80nzgwg0p73eu3y63ck3gf4ejwsz2zm0u I get dick in revenue. Still have a firm $0 per month paycheck from the music I make.

This is really just a very satisfying hobby I have. I haven't enjoyed programming in my free time in years and needed another creative outlet, and well making 2D/3D art just isn't for me.

I guess I'm very privileged in my situation that I don't need to rely on secondary revenue. I just like sharing my music and shitposting 😛
