Month: October 2024

On October 21, DistroKid placed 37 employees, roughly 25% of its staff, on administrative leave, pending layoffs. These workers were all members of the DistroKid union, which had won its election in April with strong numbers. The affected employees make up 47% of the union, including 5 of the 7 bargaining committee members. They were given notice of this 1 hour before the union bargaining committee was set to resume negotiations with DistroKid over their first contract.

I have a new tune out (soon). It’s already out on SoundCloud, and dropping October 14 on all platform served by DistroKid. It’s called “Brazilian UK Bass Beat” See my linktree at https://linktr.ee/jaypeach53 for details.

Well, I’m officially tired of Dropbox and their lack of transparency. I have been trying for months to upload some files to my Dropbox account and have been mostly unsuccessful. It seems, if you don’t keep your app open on iPhone, you can’t upload anything. The “app” terminates any uploads and when you “restart” the upload, the file upload restarts from the beginning (and if any error occurs). This, in conjuction with the piss poor upload speed means, effectively, you can’t upload anything. Isn’t that the whole purpose of Dropbox?
