Bandcamp Launches

We are thrilled to announce the launch of Bandcamp! Bandcamp is a publishing platform for musicians. It offers bands autonomy and ownership, speed and reliability, viral distribution, and stats. Or, as Ethan calls it, “Your fifth (very nerdy) Beatle . . . who loves digital distribution, search engine optimization, web programming, audio transcoding, server scalability and internet marketing . . . But won’t even ask to play tambourine.”

Andy Baio’s interview with Bandcamp CEO Ethan Diamond is the best place to read all about it.

Great job, Ethan, Shawn, Neal & Joe!
