Well, Sammy, you don't know me at all. Judging by your videos, though, I was making money playing music before you were even born. In New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, Miami...you've heard of these places, right?
I've paid more dues than you could even imagine, so have a little respect.
Regards,
Bob
I think you took that the wrong way. All I'm saying is that your comments make it sound like all you care about is how much money people have made off of Songtradr but that's not why everybody does it. Some people just do it for fun. I'm sure you've been around the block a few more times than I have and I consider myself lucky to be doing music full time at my age. Yes I've heard of those places and have been to a couple of them. Not my cup of tea though. However, I have performed in England, Itally and China. Now those are some places I wouldn't mind returning to someday.

Have you ever heard of Unadilla? They do a big motorcycle event there called the Angel City Rally. I would like to go one year.

Cliff "We are looking for new hit Country songs that were recorded and released in 2018. In the message box, please confirm the year of the song to be considered." That made no sense to us. New "hit" Country songs huh? Recorded and released in 2018 huh? So if our song is not a "hit" and was recorded in December we are twice outa luck?

I would not assume that the email notification time reflects when the song was listened to. They do work in mysterious ways.

Beat,
4.99 a month pro subscription to get enough monthly credits to really do anything.
I said I would give it year or so. It's a cup of coffee. But I won't do that forever if it seems their model is the 4.99, the postings are bait, and only an algorithm is "listening."

Yeah odd how it was phrased, I suppose recorded and released this year, new in other words and good enough to be a hit. That's how I translate it J&B. CLiff

The $5 per month is worth it for us for completely unlimited album, EP and single releases to all the major platforms. And done with very little hassle. Cheaper and easier than the other distributors. Reading their blog, etc., does indicate some major placements and they are obviously pitching music from their genre playlists, etc., in addition to the "wanted" listings. And from a "buyer" perspective it's easy to find music that might suit your needs by searching or looking at the featured playlists. We have three songs featured on short playlists under the roots genre. I discovered them by accident. We received no notification of it but it would appear that it was done by a human. And we are happy to be there. My biggest issue is their wanky website and lack of a phone app. If they lack funding to do that right then you gotta wonder about their longevity. I hope they prosper as I think they have a good business model.

Band-in-a-Box 2026 Video: AI Stems & Notes - split polyphonic audio into instruments and transcribe
This video demonstrates how to use the new AI-Notes feature together with the AI-Stems splitter, allowing you to select an audio file and have it separated into individual stems while transcribing each one to its own MIDI track. AI-Notes converts polyphonic audio—either full mixes or individual instruments—into MIDI that you can view in notation or play back instantly.
