Yeah wonderful questions!
Tldr; exclusivity, small scale, and art (as hobby on the side).
What's so liberating about this perspective is that instead of thinking of music as work and a difficult (globally accessible) industry to make it in, it becomes art -- and much more localized.
My village has a surprisingly active music scene (given its size), with a few musicians putting up performances (with like 10 people in audience) or inviting their friends from elsewhere to play. It's usually all donation based and those in attendance are happy to part with money for exclusivity -- and direct support of artists.
They all have real jobs on the side, realizing that their art is a passion, not an economic value-add.
But yeah, wavlake and special performances on Nostr etc would be one way to go.
In an informational overload era of next-to-infinite supply and very limited demand (and even less limited dollars), you have to realize that however good you think your stuff is, it's probably not that good globally speaking.
Access, or local in-the-here-and-now, on the other hand -- very different story.
I like Phoenix, you just gotta know to make a big enough channel to be reasonable for a spending wallet that you think you'll never exceed and then from there you don't pay that 1% again (unless the channel closes for some reason)
Found SN a few months ago as I continue my BTC learning journey. Most days I feel like I get some solid incite from this community; other times I know I'm missing some of the importance due to my lack of technical ability.
Today I found several articles on SN VERY interesting leading me to learn more about Taproot and Sigwit, found a new blockheight tool, and a little bit of music.
Thank you SN community for letting this lowly sats stacker creep along. I hope to one day contribute as much as I've received and pass on what I know to my friends, family, and IRL community.
this look fucking amazing, thanks for sharing!
i really like the development in Africa!
