Your tiny music site

The year is 2023. Welcome to your web site - yes "your web site". You own your music.and that means everything to you. Your music may or may no longer be on a mainstream streaming platform, but it is certainly on your wed site. You know now that all of the things that these plattorms offered for tree, were not really priced in the monthly subscription amount (if it there even was one). These things were unsustainably offered to you for a low price because of an inflated vision of the value that these services were going to provide in the future. You now know that this utopic idea that was pitched to you was, well, nothing more than a pitch in order to get you so involved in the process of virtualizing your interactions with your fans and collaborators thereby fulfilling the desire of the investors of those platforms to populate the service, that you forgot why you were even in it in thefirst place. What were you thinking? You see your musician friends and fans all of the time! The physical contact and exchange is what inspires you and drives you to create such beautiful music. It could be cathartic, it could be healing, but it doesn't just take the soul for a ride, the soul is driving and your networking, marketing mind is in the trunk - locked in the trunk. You sometimes, take the branding monkey out of the trunk and park it in front of your screen on Facebook, or Twitter to do the seldom humble brag and work on the culture fit and adjust your image. But you like to keep the two separate. Because after all, music has been around since the beginning, and willing fully isolatingour inspiration has only been a trend for a decade. You might be paying for your web site's hosting if you think that the added storage presents a compelling enough value proposition for you to invest in it with a monthly payment. The least of your concerns is all the crowd that spends so much time in clicking likes, writing useless comments, dealing with sex bots, filtering spam content, and dealing with the usual privacy concerns that they eventually end up with little time to make music, albeit get inspired to make music and play it to other people. I guess they never got upset enough to think that a different way was possible. They go under a different category these days, labelled as 'creators' by the conglomerating platforms that have robotised their passion to the point that the whole thingneeds to be referred to as audio, or sound. Music is it not. You're ecstatic about the fact that your web site doesn't collect any bizarre information about your self, or those people that visit your web site. The fact that your fans don't have to go through therite of passage of clicking on a button that says that they consent to something, is almost too goog to cleve.s kno o scares are or yourans mornavno o cick on me ouron marsaysthat they consent), but you really hope that this particular feature doesn't go away. All in all, it is a good site. You've got your own domain, and you can just say it out to someone ina crowded room.
