Honest musician question: are we all kinda only interested in ourselves now? This Songstuff thread gets into it.

Does posting your music still feel like part of being an artist to you, or has it started feeling like a separate job?

[Songstuff @Songstuff]

Real question for musicians who play out a lot: what still makes a gig feel worth doing when the money barely covers the night? The room, the connection, the momentum, meeting people, proving something to yourself, something else?

[Songstuff @Songstuff]

With the popularity of AI music on the rise, the uniqueness of human-made music are worth cherishing - the imperfections, the expressions, the tiny nuances, the lived-in timing, the rough edges that give it a pulse.
What’s most valuable to you about non-AI music?

[Songstuff @Songstuff]

Authentic question: where is the line between “branding” and “trying too hard” as an artist? Chime in!

What's the one song, album or live performance video that's been taking hold of you this week?

[Songstuff @Songstuff]

Spotify is rolling out a new “Verified” artist badge, but the eligibility rules are raising eyebrows (10,000 monthly listeners for 3 months). Songstuff members are digging into what it means for indie artists, AI music, and platform gatekeeping.

What’s the one small thing in your musical inventory you can’t live without? Maybe a certain mic, plugin, accessory or product you use everyday? We're curious to know!

A Songstuff member asks: if you use a 6 second sample, do you actually need permission? This interesting conversation is worth a read.

Do you use reference tracks while mixing? What are your thoughts?

[Songstuff @Songstuff]

For a lot of musicians, "content strategy" feels forced. But at the same time, showing up online matters if you want your music to reach people. So where do you draw the line?

There's a thoughtful discussion happening on Songstuff about finding a balance between authenticity and growth. Have a read and share how you approach it.

Be honest: what usually stops you from finishing songs? #indie #musicians

[Songstuff @Songstuff]
