I built this site to scratch my itch.
A platform like Bandcamp is a fantastic tool to promote your music and profit from your efforts.
Bandcamp can be very valuable for independent artists, and a few sales on Bandcamp can easily make you more money than thousands of streams on some other unnamed services.
The problem is that Bandcamp needs to make promotion and discovery easier.
I have always liked the download codes that Bandcamp gives you, and I have used them to promote my music—either posting them on my socials or in online forums where folks post codes.
Using Bandcamp codes online has always been a weird experience. People post pages of codes, and users try to keep track of the used ones.
It's a process that is "broken."
GetMusic fixes this.
Artists can promote their releases without having to worry about tracking codes. When a fan clicks the link to redeem a code, it's automatically redeemed, and the code is marked as used so that it won't be handed out again.
In the week after the site's initial launch, I promoted one of my releases and gained more followers on Bandcamp than I have after a year of self-promotion.

Notes from the other side.
We’ve used GetMusic on 3 releases now and every single time it has resulted in many more followers. They may not always translate into more sales - but you are in all those peoples collections and they are all on your messaging list for notifications about future releases etc. We regard it as an investment for the future - to build up your list of followers and raise awareness of what you do. Chuck (who interfaces with the artists) is a really nice guy and will always try to accommodate any requests you have for promotions and new merchandise releases etc. He has done loads for us and his intervention often results in increased plays on our Bandcamp page. The news of the offer of promoting free downloads at no cost is a godsend to struggling bands and is an excellent idea I our opinion - it means we can now afford to offer free downloads of “singles” to promote upcoming releases. Keep up the good work - GetMusic definitely gets The Crabs Commendation!
The views, sales, and followers increased, and honestly, I had a great experience.
Awesome platform for small creators - It was very difficult to get people to have a look in Bandcamp at my work, especially with how much music there is available but GetMusic really helped show my music to the right people. I have grown my fanbase on Bandcamp tremendously as a result.
May I say I am thrilled with the results with GET MUSIC! In less than 3 weeks my Bandcamp follower count has risen by 86%, I've received hundreds of additional streams I otherwise wouldn't have. Further, it appears there's been a knock-on with a spike in Spotify activity also, presumably punters who utilise both platforms. In even less time my old band THE GELS has received a 114% rise in Bandcamp followers and generated real sales. I wasn't sure what to expect when I joined GET MUSIC, but I certainly wasn't expecting this. It's a staggering result.
I stumbled upon GetMusic on Reddit a few years ago. I had an excellent conversation with the owner and was captivated by the concept of connecting my music on Bandcamp to not only expand my fan base but also connect with other artists. Over the years, I’ve amassed a vast collection of singles and albums, and some of these albums are among my all-time favorites! GetMusic stands as a platform that champions indie artists and facilitates connections that we could never have envisioned.
I have been using Get Music with a lot of success in my releases. But even if I didn't use it for my own music, I'd still come here for everyone else's music. It is the main place I score new music. The emails are always loaded with music I have never heard of. Makes me happy.
