I will always fuck with bandcamp harder than Spotify. Bandcamp is the streaming platform of the people— t0fu (@CakeyDrakey) July 1, 2021

@Bandcamp I wanted to ask if I could ask my employer to transfer my salary directly to you. It all ends up at Bandcamp anyway, I had to find out. 👉👈🥺— Steffi (@Steffi27405969) June 25, 2021

this is a good time to remember that bandcamp, an independent way to distribute music, exists and it's a great way to pay artists for their work https://t.co/iblawBzUpE— jourdann is simmering 🐸🍬🏠 (@j0_0ur) July 6, 2021

like even if bandcamp friday isnt happening artists still make a ton more money from one purchase on bandcamp compared to streaming a couple of times on spotify and it REALLY goes a long way— jourdann is simmering 🐸🍬🏠 (@j0_0ur) July 6, 2021

Holy shit, I just noticed that legendary artist Uboa purchased the album on Bandcamp. The thought of one of my favorite musicians possibly having heard my own noise track is fucking amazing.— ❥ Matt | cml. 🪳 (@Sleepless_Matt) July 7, 2021

https://t.co/Tdez6ZP3hy Cannot emphasize enough how much absolutely amazing music there is on @Bandcamp. This is such a great example list and it has such a diverse range you could find something for anyone, I've found 4-5 albums I'm already interested in after one song.— Westin, Queer Breakfast Anarchist (@WestinPlaying) July 8, 2021

And at the risk of sounding like a broken record of my own, right now, the best place for that is @Bandcamp... They kept a whole lot of artists and indie labels afloat during the pandemic, but have been playing that role for over a decade. Genuinely life changing.— SoloBassSteve 🎧 🚵🏿‍♀️ (@solobasssteve) July 15, 2021

Hey people that buy releases on Bandcamp that are ancient and all of 4 months old... thank you. We should all live beyond hype cycles more often.— Whettman Chelmets (@wc_helmets) July 16, 2021

I think @Bandcamp’s a superb platform for musicians and fans alike and it’s continually developing new functionality for the benefit of all users. It’s an ideal home for a compilation album whereby people can easily check out the music of any of the artists and bands involved.— Across The Universal Soundscape (@univ_soundscape) July 19, 2021

I can assure you the 22K+ plays I get on my @Bandcamp are substantially more profitable than a million Spotify streams.If it doesn’t put money in your pocket. Why do you continue to do it? It borders on remarkable and funny in the same breath.— Demuir (@djdemuir) July 19, 2021

in this increasingly exploitative environment, @bandcamp has continued to be a beacon of light, regularly waiving their revenue share during the pandemic in order to better support us as artists.— JABRIL (@jabrilyousef) July 21, 2021

One of the greatest things @Bandcamp did for me was turn me on to a lot of good music while I was in #Quarantine. I discovered 2020-2021 to be an amazing time for #Jazz and #AltCountry. Really. There are heavyweights putting out great music on #bandcamp! Big names, huge sounds!— The Kintners “Collaborations” Jun 7 (@kelly_kintner) July 27, 2021

In a single weekend on @Bandcamp we made more money from our own music than we have in our entire band’s lifetime from Apple, Spotify, and Amazon streaming “royalties”.— Sandrider (@_sandrider_) August 9, 2021

The @Bandcamp app is fantastic. How did I not know this sooner? All my purchases over the years ready for offline listening, easy communication with my fav artists, great design and UI. My only regret is waiting this long to download it 👌🏽— Simon Taylor 🇺🇦 (@DrSimonTaylor) August 6, 2021

@BandCamp > Spotify/AppleMusic1. Higher % payout for artist.2. Same week payout for artist. (Versus a 3 month wait period)3. Direct artist to supporter communication.4. New music notifications direct to fans.5. Read #2 again.— Brinson (@IAmBrinson) August 17, 2021

Shout out @Bandcamp for simply being the best platform for putting out music and supporting musicians— “Most Normal Guy” (@etaimusic) September 3, 2021

Bandcamp continues to be a little bright star in an otherwise pitch black sky. As we find ourselves again wondering how to navigate through a murky landscape, Bandcamp offers a beacon to the DIY musician and the fans that support them.https://t.co/33E6q7kYm9— Drunken Prayer (@Drunken_Prayer) September 3, 2021

It warms my heart to see people supporting musicians and actually buying stuff on services like bandcamp ❤️— Brian (@anotherocean_) September 4, 2021

.@Bandcamp really has done incredible things for musicians and music access, thank you.— Mello Music Group (@MelloMusicGroup) September 4, 2021

Thank you everyone who made my bandcamp friday so great. I just have been crying for 24 hours straight.I genuinely am out of words and only have emotions now. Thank you again and again and again for believing in me more than I have myself for a very long time.— eryn (@ijustsartred666) September 4, 2021

a publicist asked if i post bandcamp items exclusively. the answer is no, but keep sending me your bandcamp links. i like to see artists getting paid. people are feeding their families on bandcamp. so many artists thriving in that space should let the industry know wassup.— karaslamb (@karaslamb) September 4, 2021

All these streaming services exist, and I just keep going back to @Bandcamp because I actually want to own my music and support artists in the process.— Alex Seibz | Linux Circa 2018 🇺🇦 (@Algamer) September 7, 2021

PREACHSo rewarding on both sides of the equation, no matter the platform.I consider Bandcamp reviews equally treasured as 'mainstream' press and I'm continually blown away by the quality, kindness and inventiveness of the writing 💖 https://t.co/RuDBWB8H84— Alpha Chrome Yayo (@alphachromeyayo) September 4, 2021

I love when bands finally post old albums on bandcamp it's like "Thank you, finally, I've been ~trying~ to give you my money for a while now"— Billy Raytheon Cyrus (@NotAMusicTakeB1) September 8, 2021

Pulitzer 2021 a Bandcamp Daily https://t.co/0E7dz9kpeC— Francesco Farabegoli (@disappunto) September 9, 2021

Yup. Bandcamp all they way wherever possible! CD/Vinyl and a download I can revisit whenever I need to, more money to creatives and can download/play lossless format. Streaming is fine, but if you really love music you pay for it.— Martin Nubbins (@gurningchimp) September 9, 2021

I used to look forward to @Spotify's Discover Weekly because they played stuff I'd not heard before. Lately it's 90% familiar tunes. Thank goodness I have the @Bandcamp Weekly each Tuesday. Algorithm-free music discovery can't be beat.(beat... see what I did there!?)— evan macdonald (@evanmacdonald) September 13, 2021

whoever bought my song on bandcamp, THANK YOU you bought me lunch :)— messy 💙💛 (@bleachedcobain) September 14, 2021

I get asked a lot about why I choose @Bandcamp to release my music. It's simple, really. They don't screw musicians. They get a fair cut for providing the service and the musicians get the rest. As a listener, you can get lossless audio downloads or stream from their free app.— Mike Smith - Yes, that one.™️ (@mikeflstfi) September 15, 2021

Bandcamp is my new favorite place. And while I might spend more money than I did paying once a month for streaming, I know where that money is going. Because if we don't value the work of artists now, who will provide this musical joy for us later?— Noncompliant (@_noncompliant_) September 15, 2021
