r/Mixcloud

I just received a comment on one of my Joyful Journey "mixtapes" which I am about to delete.

I recently discovered your music, and I have to say I was truly impressed by how creative and original it is. Your sound stands out and shows incredible potential. My work involves artist development and talent scouting, where I help connect promising musicians like yourself with opportunities in the industry. I believe your work has great potential for further exploration. If you're interested, I'd love to have a conversation about your music and discuss possible next steps through a secure professional channel. I'm eager to hear from you, and don’t hesitate to check my bio for the contact information of the New West president for collaboration."

Again, I am not a musician and all my uploads are my old and new "mixtapes" and my old radio shows - so at first, I thought someone liked my curations, but then the penny dropped. Scammer. 🤦

Just a warning and I guess a question...Has anyone else ever been targeted on Mixcloud?

Now off to report this BOT nonsense to them and delete and block.

I’ve been trying to upload a 3-hour session, both on Safari and Google Chrome and with different internets, and after waiting around 10 long minutes and reaching 100%, it just backs out onto the create upload menu and fails. Not even reducing the file size helps. This problem needs fixing if I’m not the only one suffering.

Why is mixcloud so laggy from time to Time. it's usually when I'm driving around in my car, the music starts slowing down and squelching. it seems to happen when the screen goes black,. if I open it up again it usually goes back to normal. today it's doing the same in my house where I have good fibre broadband so it's not a connectivity issue.
