CrateDrop is where producers and collectors dig for records nobody else has heard. A Fresh Drop puts your Bandcamp or SoundCloud release on the pages they read, for 7 or 30 days.
Last 30 days: 1,189 visitors, 4,297 page views, 32,288 records dug.
On the genre and decade guides and blog posts that match your genre, on the Fresh Drops page, and in the weekly crate email. Always marked as a paid placement.
Through your own Bandcamp or SoundCloud player, so plays count on your page and buyers land where they can buy.
A private stats page with views, plays and clicks, updated live.
No. Digs are always random records from Discogs and nobody can pay to change that. Fresh Drops sit next to the guides and in the email, clearly marked.
Music you made or have the rights to, on Bandcamp or SoundCloud. Sponsor lines are for things diggers use: record shops, labels, sample tools, pressing plants.
Drops go live right after payment and are removed and refunded if they break the rules above. Sponsor lines are checked by a person first; if one is not approved you get a full refund.
Dodo Payments, as merchant of record. They take care of card details and VAT.
