What Does the Bandcamp Sale to Epic Games Mean for Indie Artists?

The news of fiercely independent Bandcamp selling to Epic Games (makers of Fortnite) sent shockwaves through the industry. What would happen to Bandcamp? Would its service go downhill? Would it raise commissions? Speculation was rampant, with lots of critics claiming that the company as we knew it was history already.

In today’s Indie Music Minute, Disc Makers CEO Tony van Veen discusses the sale of Bandcamp to Epic Games and offers his opinion on the following topics:

-What were the reasons Bandcamp was sold?
-Are there any benefits to artists from this sale?
-What will happen next to Bandcamp?
-Should you stick with Bandcamp or leave the platform?
