I want to start releasing my own music and have no interest in the corporate streaming platforms. I have only a basic conceptual understanding of torrenting but it seems to me like a nice way of sharing my music with people directly.
What do I need to do and consider in order to make a music release freely available in this way?
Currently my knowledge and experience is limited to using an application on my computer to search for and download files from others but I’m willing to learn.
Any advice or signposting much appreciated :)
Nothing to worry about unless you’ve signed a contract with someone. Normally when you sign with a record label you’re selling them the rights to your music, so they could sue you if you try to give it away or sell it without them being involved. Record labels are known to be pretty predatory…
