Deadmau5 working on music subscription service
Last week Joel Zimmerman aka Deadmau5 announced that he will begin a subscription based music service. While he left us with many questions, he wanted to clear things up and take part in a Reddit AMA to further answer questions about the new service. Hereās what Deadmau5 had to say about the new service:
Q: Why should i sign up for this shit?
A: Well, first and foremostā¦ music. Lots of music. its what i do. and ill be doing it live from the studio, as frequently as possible, and you can join in on the process.
Q: Thatās it? just music?
A: no. pictures of my cat too.
Q: So whats wrong with twitter and soundcloud then?
A: Nothing really, i just find it too ānoisyā. Having been to the bottom of the internet and back a few times, i feel less and less connected to my fans, and more connected to hating on shit i have nothing to do with. Itās quite unfair really, especially for the fans and supporters. Nobody wins.
Q: How much is this shit going to cost me?
A: As of right now, i have no ideaā¦ we did have some talk about a ā3 tier systemā that grant users a certain level of accessā¦ like one for just photos and ātweetsāā¦. another for those + music downloads, and a top tier for all that + live streams. BUT THENā¦. i jumped up on the boardroom table grabbed my manager by his fat head and said āNO! FUCK YOU! THATāS A STUPID IDEAā then round housed him all the way back to geocities.
nah, i wish. Anyway, i think it might be better to just meet it somewhere in the middle and be all likeā¦ all access for everyoneā¦ and i donāt know 1 or 2 bucks a month? All i really need to do is run some more figures on how much this shit is going to cost me and then just offset itā¦. but really, i can promise you itāll be less than 4 or 5 bucks max.
Q: So what about the music then?
A: Well, ill try my best to upload my ENTIRE catalogueā¦ which is pushing the 400 tracks markā¦ i have so much unreleased shit, it scares me.
but heres the thingā¦ SoundCloud is freeā¦ so the publishers (for now) donāt really care too much about the DRM ā¦ but when you say āhey im gunna launch a subscription site where people can just pay to have access toā¦. they flip a shit. (seriously, my phone blew the fuck up) BUTā¦ thatās just a deal ill have to make with my publishersā¦ ill figure something out thats non-rapey and fair for both parties.
the moral of the story is, iāve had this idea foreverā¦ most publishers and labels are, still, completely overlooking the value of an artist created / driven subscription model. I guess itās sink or swim for me.
Q: Will the āappā be available for my insert phone here
A: I sure hope so. Going to be working very hard to get this rolled out on windows phones, iphones, android and via HTTP as well.
Q: When are you going to deploy?
A: When itās ready. Iāve been looking at a few companies who actually do have existing infrastructures that are ānearlyā ready to be rolled out if i can make a decent dealā¦ but the big fight is, for instance: āhey joel, we would love to host you a profile on a site / service weāve already built for other artists.ā No thanks. i dont need another social media site to joinā¦ just a single point / proprietary app.
Soā¦ bear with meā¦ because this is all very new ānewsā but ill make something happen sooner than later, even if i have to outsource the app development myself.
I also plan on allowing user profiles, as inā¦ when you create an accountā¦ you can choose to create a public profile for yourself to connect to other members of the horde in a simple simple āinbox / msgsingā, or receive personal replys and or kudos from yours truly.
One other thing: im not taking any bullshit sponsor money for this. this will be our little baby. NO ADS / Spam or bullshit. ever. it will be a CLOSED SYSTEM. horray!
