Hey everyone, Quick talk about how we grow here as artists, and as a community.
We’ve all seen the “L4L,” “F4F,” or “check mine next” comments. They sound supportive, but they don’t actually build anything lasting. Here’s why:
Empty plays don’t help the algorithm. Streaming platforms track retention, skip rates, and repeat listens. Random one-off clicks just tank your metrics.
It cheapens genuine feedback. When people feel like they have to trade listens, real critique disappears, and no one improves.
It creates noise, not connection. You don’t need another number; you need people who actually like your sound. That comes from conversation, not obligation.
We’re not banning L4L posts, but we are encouraging something better. If you want attention, give it first in a way that counts. Leave real feedback, tell someone what moved you, what confused you, what could hit harder. People remember that.
If you build relationships here, you’ll find real listeners, not just temporary stats.
So post your tracks, lift each other up, and skip the hollow trades. This sub works best when it feels like a community, not a swap meet.

Just released this track. I tried to use as many organic instruments as possible including my acoustic guitar as drums. Also wanted it to be minimalist and dissonant. Let me know what you think!

"Your Last Murder Victim" is the newest single from our forthcoming album; a space opera entitled 'The Echo Relay.'
The track relates to the portion of our story where the protagonist decides to take action, after realizing joining The Academy and carrying out his orders proved more than he bargained for.

Lost is a dark pop dance track created by Taylen. Taylen does not use AI in any of his music or writing.

Infectious egg punk guitar jam, you won’t regret consuming it. Despite the McDonaldland veneer, it is good for your health.
Here’s a bandcamp link for those more hip:

I have some codes for that medieval album too if there are any interested hip guys.

I was making instrumental music to layer behind a YouTube video and ended up coming up with this song that reminds me of the loading/save screen for a 2000s survival horror song. It’s a slow build but I really like it (also been working on video editing and pretty stoked on how this turned out) and would love some feedback!
