I received an e-mail overnight from Bandcamp in which they advise that
this Friday they are waving their revenue share of any purchases for
24 hours for the benefit of the artists. Good opportunity to buy some
of Bill's music missing from your collection, and benefit Bill more than
usual !
These are the things that make Bancamp worth supporting.
I quite agree, Andre.
In fact, there are due to be three of these days coming up: this Friday (May 1st), first Friday of June (June 5th) and first Friday of July (July 3rd). First Friday of the month is the time to stock up on your Nelsonic sounds, folks!
It might not be ready in time, but I’m HOPING the next Bandcamp re-release will be ready on Friday to coincide with the royalty waiver. Fingers crossed! 😬
Out of curiosity, was there a spike in sales the last time that Bandcamp waived their fee?
Don't forget kids! This Friday, 5 June, Bandcamp is once again giving all proceeds to the Artist. So, if you have been saving your pennies for one of Bill's or another artists releases then this Friday is the day to break open that piggy-bank.
And there might just be a new ‘old’ release available! 😎
Made a couple of purchases.
.
I bought a few things too. Actually, I ended up buying the Hypnotic Dirge label discography. There are enough good releases there (a few that I already have) that I wanted, that it was just cheaper to buy the lot. Asking was only 25 cad. I paid 45 cad. Still a bargain. That was 103 releases. It took a quite while to download them. Especially as flac. Now I have to spend some time listening to them all and getting the ones that I like into rotation.
Just a reminder. It is again a Bandcamp Friday. If you are thinking of buying Elliot's or Bill's latest, today is the day!
Just remember that it is based on midnight to midnight California time

I cannot find Elliot's album.
The link is on this forum in the post about his album. It should take you straight to it.
Does anyone know if Bandcamp are continuing to wave their commission next Friday?
Yes. First Friday of every month. Check my post above. There is a link to is it bandcamp Friday
I think that the simple answer is yes, as they previous said through October.
My hope is to pick up Eliott's solo album with all the money going to him.
Great. I have a couple of friends who have released albums, so I can give them maximum income.
It's almost that time again...Do you have And We Fell Into A Dream yet?

It's BANDCAMP FRIDAY again.
It's (almost) BANDCAMP FRIDAY again. Friday 5 February is a Bandcamp Friday.
If you are planning on buying anything from Bandcamp...say from Bill Nelson?... then this Friday is the day to do it.
We need to support our favorite artists in these tough times!
I buy music off Bandcamp several times a month, and it's always my first port of call for any band that I want to hear more of. The only discs I've bought during the last year was the recent Focus boxed set, because it was not likely to be available as a download. I do not have the storage space for big boxed sets, which means I've missed out on the BBD boxed sets after 'SF'. I'm not an artwork/packaging junkie, so I only need the best quality music files. It would be nice if Esoteric/CherryRed would consider download purchases too. Anyway, here's to the next few Bandcamp Fridays, and Bill's continuing releases.
Esoteric HAVE made the 2CD version of the remastered discs available as downloads, they can be purchased from iTunes, Amazon etc. So you may not get the full box set contents, but you get most of the bonus tracks.
@Jon Hi Jon, thanks for the download options, however I use Bandcamp because they offer Lossless download options, including hi-res. As far as I know iTunes/Apple are lossy, as are the Amazon options. I am not in the market for lossy downloads, especially if the original has been presented in hi-res, like the BBD boxed sets.
@John Carr that’s a fair comment John... It is quite odd that these download ‘giants’ still don’t offer lossless downloads for those who want it. Another feather in the cap for sites like Bandcamp!!!
