I wasn't sure if this was exactly the best place to post this discussion, but I was curious about other member's experience and methodologies when coming to releasing their work. With how easy it is to put music out, both on social sites like SoundCloud and as packaged releases, such as Bandcamp, in addition to personal websites, etc., I was wondering how people approach the if, when, and where of releasing their music. Do you post WIP tracks, and tracks as you finish them, or do you tend to complete an album/project, and then release it all at once? Do you work with a netlabel or similar, or do you ever reach out for reviews?
Personally, I tend to put stand alone pieces on SoundCloud, and build larger, unified pieces that I then put on Bandcamp, with sometimes putting select tracks/excerpts on SC. I have been making a lot of work recently, including a couple near complete projects, which I am trying to decide how to release.
I would really appreciate hearing other people's experiences/opinions/ideas!
