Spotify for unfinished music

Mixroom lets artists share unfinished music, song drafts, and cuts that didn’t make the album by emailing mixes to music@mixroom.app. Most artists only publish their best music, and we want to create a place for the rest the songs fans are missing out on.

Love this app! Is there an concept of versioning? Would be cool to step back through song revisions over time.

@alexarena That's definitely coming up! Would love if collaborators could download and contribute versions as well. Stay tuned!!

@alexarena @jay_noe Git-style branching, pull requests, and merging with versions would be a game changer for collabs

@jonathanreiss Splice is in this game but not as advanced as Git :(

I have some objections as music maker. First of all my motivation to share something that is not finished, with a poor mixdown and/or not yet mastered is very low / unexistent. Also, if I share an unfinished idea it can be easily stolen. Lastly, if I want to share something unfinished, I can already do it on other existing platforms, such as Soundcloud (where I can also privately share links to "hidden" music with specific people) or blend.io and bandlab if i want to collaborate with other music makers on a shared piece of music.

@giulio_maselli all good points, we appreciate the feedback! We are actually shifting the app in another direction - posting incomplete songs that need mixing, vocals, guitar, lyrics, etc. and would love to know if you'd find that more useful!

@scoff the question as music maker always stays the same: why would I want to publish incomplete stuff? if you can answer this question then you have found the right direction for mixroom

@giulio_maselli @scoff I personally find a marketplace for collaborations useful, are you aware of SoundBetter (acquired by Spotify)?

Great idea...I have just some questions: Publishing an unfinished track on your platform can be used as a proof of intellectual property? In any case, how do you handle the question of licenses? Which license do you apply on an unfinished track posted on your platform?

@anna_costalonga1 It's our policy that everything uploaded follows Creative Commons BY-NC (attribution, non-commercial) to ensure that people are properly credited with their creations, and hold ownership rights, while also enabling other users to post 'remixes,' additional verses tacked on, etc. Thanks for the awesome question! We will definitely be making this more prominent on our upcoming Song details page rework.

Great concept! Hate the process of getting my music I'm working on to my phone, this looks way easier

Love this idea and I'm looking forward to playing around with it. The concept of "raw" content showing the iterations it takes to get to the final form is key here. Fans get an inside look into the process and it's a great way to learn.
