Jam.coop Updates + New Features
What is jam.coop?
jam.coop (@jamcoop) is an online record store owned co-operatively by musicians and the people who work here. Owning it together means we can rely on it and share in the profits together. We’ve answered some common questions at jam.coop/about.
Tagging your music
Artists can now tag their music. We support the same set of genre tags that Musicbrainz (@musicbrainz) use, but soon we’ll let artists add their own too.
If you’re an artist, head to your account dashboard, edit your albums and tag away. Make atmospheric sludge metal? We’ve got your back.
We’ll wait a little while until we have some more music tagged, and then make it easier for people to find music using them. You can get a little peak by following the links on album pages, for example https://jam.coop/tags/ambient.
Licensing your music
We now make it easy to choose a license for your music, for example the Attribution-NoDerivatives Creative Commons license.
By default everything is “All rights reserved” so if you’re an artist there’s no need to change anything.
More metadata in your downloads
If you buy music on jam, and we’d love it if you did, the downloaded files now have a bunch of useful metadata (e.g. proper track numbering, release dates) so that they look great wherever you play them.
ATOM FEEDS
You heard us. Keep up with the latest releases on jam like it’s 2005 with our Albums Atom feed.
We love feeds, so expect artist-specific, genre feeds and more soon.
