free/libre/open online music distribution

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



ahoy all,

	i have been doing some research into free/libre software and/or services for music distribution.  my preferences are a *customizable* static HTML+CSS+JavaScript site (e.g. like the current crop of static site generators https://staticsitegenerators.net ) that i can host myself which allows streaming and free/libre downloads of releases/tracks.  basically i am looking for a simple static site generator that is album/track/audio aware, though i am open to any solutions available.

	my current list is small and all save one require a full-blown CMS+DB install:

* Pushtape http://pushtape.com
- currently only Drupal based

* CASH Music platform http://cashmusic.org
- PHP+DB requirement for self hosting
- also available as a free/beer service hosted by CASH Music with embeddable widgets
- currently no streaming support

* WordPress
- there are some freemium plugins for hosting a music store, etc. but again i am trying to avoid the setup+maintenance of a full CMS

* indieTorrent https://indietorrent.org
- online only service
- very interesting/cool manifesto https://indietorrent.org/docs/manifesto/
- not lots of activity but still kicking https://indietorrent.org/4rum/viewtopic.php?f=1&p=39#p39
- not specifically for self hosting but as it is open source it could be done


others (ReverbNation, Jamendo, Magnatune, Bandcamp, Bandpage, thesixtyone, etc) are all either non-libre, non-self hosting, etc.

	if anyone has any items to add to this list, experience with a service, homemade solutions, etc. i would appreciate them sharing it.  i figure since we all go through various amounts of trouble to follow our principles/passions/whatever by using free/libre tools when making music, sharing it would be no different.

thanks, w
