Started a house label in Liverpool, made a dodgy video to go with it.

Started a small label called Hand Tools. We care about the music and the art behind it, and that's about it.
If you've got a track you believe in, send it over. If you believe in it, so will we, and we'll give it an honest listen. We don't care if it fits in with trends. We want timeless music.
House and sub genres, 120 to 136 BPM. Artists keep their rights. I'm not in this for the money, it's a passion thing and I make my money elsewhere.
Based in Liverpool, UK. handtoolsrecords.com
The video's me talking and it's not great, and there's no release out yet so there's nothing to judge us on. Take it as the label saying hello, nothing more.
Can you answer this to help me out?: what do you want from a label, and what makes a piece of music timeless to you?

Would anyone actually join a new Bitwig producer community?

I’ve been thinking about starting a completely free community specifically for people who make music in Bitwig -thought I’d ask here before I spend ages setting it up for me and 3 other people 😂

Obviously we’ve already got r/Bitwig, the Bitwig Discord etc. I’m not trying to replace them, I’m just not into Discord personally- There’s loads of good stuff there, but I find it chaotic and good conversations disappear pretty quickly.

TÂCHES had a Bitwig community a while back which I thought was great. I’m thinking something along those lines - profiles, proper discussions, WIPs & feedback, presets/patches, Bitwig techniques, collabs, production challenges and somewhere to hear what everyone is making.

Also, I’m definitely not claiming to be some Bitwig wizard 😂. I’m just half a shite producer who loves Bitwig and thinks it’d be cool to have a community where everyone shares what they know and learns from each other. - Love N Coda on Spotify if you fancy having a laugh.

I’m thinking of calling it Off the Grid -
Completely free. No courses. No guru nonsense. Just producers sharing music, ideas and knowledge. Probably on Skool.
If it grew, it’d be cool to do community feedback sessions and get some guest producers involved too.

Would you actually join something like this? And what would make you keep coming back rather than joining once and never opening it again? 😂

Thanks for reading x

Been charged twice per month since 2019.

I’ve been charged twice per month for a soundcloud subscription - I only have 1 soundcloud account but I get billed £10 on the 11th and £10 on the 26th of every month. Did not have a clue until I checked my PayPal account.

Will soundcloud refund me for the double payment for years?!
