Our Music Is Now on SoundCloud

Jan 23, 2018

Several years ago, when we first started releasing music and building our online presence, SoundCloud wasn't nearly as big as it is today. Instead of publishing our music on SoundCloud, we decided to upload our music to a few other streaming services that were hip and trendy for independent artists at the time, specifically Grooveshark and RadioReddit.

In recent years, both of those websites have completely shut down for various reasons. For example, Grooveshark was facing lawsuits for copyright infringement from all 3 major record labels, so they agreed to terminate the streaming service as part of the settlement. As an independent artist, we intentionally uploaded our own music for free streaming, so these lawsuits didn't affect us very much. At least that's what we thought, until the settlement forced the website to shut down completely, making our music (and everyone else's) unavailable.

Since then, SoundCloud has exploded and become one of the most popular music streaming websites, especially for new and upcoming artists. So we took a little time to upload our entire catalog to SoundCloud, including our first 2 albums, No Morals and Blues Gone Bad, and our most recent EP, Reminisce. Of course, we also plan on keeping our SoundCloud profile up-to-date with any new material we release. We hope this will make our music more convenient and accessible for people who prefer SoundCloud for streaming.
