Very cool!
For people worried that this goes against the rule "no promotional content", this is obviously a charity, and also there is a difference between being a Lemmy user with a side project, and being a project leader with a Lemmy promotional account.
OP definitely belongs to the first category.
Maybe we could have "Show what you created" posts in the future.
A little bit of show and tell.
Yeah, I was definitely worried about it being a promotion. I've been doing music for a long time, but I gave up the idea that it would pay my bills a decade ago. That's just not a reality anymore and got more abysmal during and after covid.
Its 100% a creative outlet and side projects for me. By day I am an under employed project manager. By night I am an idealistic and also under employed musician. Oh what a fate! :)
Well it's not casual conversation either way.
If it becomes a problem, I will gladly delete it.
It can be a starter, as other people interested in such projects might have questions to ask to OP, or people who worked on similar initiatives might have insights of anecdotes to share.
And if anyone is like, I NEED this, or you are a DJ who wants to spin it, or whatever, just message me for a download code.
Also, going to be available on streaming services after Feb 14, wanted to give it a couple of weeks to stew on Bandcamp first.
My favorite track is probably Missing in Stars covering Hold Me Now. It's soooo good.
