I did an off-topic video this week!
There has been some speculation going around about what exactly has been going on with Bandcamp and the union that the workers are a part of, Bandcamp United, over the past few months. I just thought I would summarize it to the best of my abilities.
The links to follow BandcampUnited and support the healthcare fund are in the video description.

Solidarity alert! #Bandcamp has been sold to #Songtradr, and Songtradr's CEO has not recognized the the #BandcampUnited union and is not promising to offer jobs to all current employees.
A terrible look ahead of #BandcampFriday, new owners!
BandcampUnited is asking people to sign in support here:

ID: Three tweets by @/bandcampunited (DN: Bandcamp United).
The first reads, "We at Bandcamp United are happy to announce that we've won our union, 31 to 7! We're excited to work with leadership to build a better Bandcamp! Thank you for all your support throughout this process, and in the future."
Attached is a beige/teal graphic with stars in the corner and the union's logo at the bottom. Large text reads "We won," and the vote count is displayed underneath.
The second tweet reads, "Our joint statement can be found here at the link below," and provides a link to a Bandcamp blog post [link].
Attached is a graphic of light text on a teal background with the union's logo at the bottom. The titular text reads, "Joint Statement From Bandcamp Co-Founder Ethan Diamond and Bandcamp United." The text underneath reads, "Bandcamp United and Bandcamp management are committed to working together to continue to advance fair economic conditions for our workers and the artists who rely on us. We look forward to negotiating with an open mind and working in good faith to promote the best interests of all of our staff and the artist and label community we serve."
The last tweet reads, "While we have won this election by 24 votes -- leadership contested 16 ballots. These ballots were not counted. To be clear, we will not leave our colleagues behind & the plan to fight for the inclusion of everyone who is eligible in our union. Stay tuned for how you can support! ❤️"

transcript of the email so you do at least this for the website that shaped my and so many other weird kids' brains:
Dear Ethan,
I am writing to ask that Bandcamp and Epic leadership uphold workers' right to form an inclusive union and stop all union-busting. Bandcamp has been a lifeline for artists and labels in the past couple of years, and I am disappointed to see a platform dedicated to fairness infringe on workers' rights to form a union. All workers deserve a seat at the table when deciding their working conditions.
the tweet also mentions a link in their bio which contains more info on how to help the cause: linktr.ee/bandcampunited
Another union shout out — Bandcamp workers are organizing with Tech Workers Union Local 1010 and need your support! Email [email protected] with your support for the workers and their right to organize, and follow Bandcamp United on twitter to keep up with their campaign for equity in the workplace.

Todays the day!
Plus, Bandcamp United, the site’s union, is asking us to contact the new owner, Songtradr, to demand recognition of their union!! You can also sign and share the petition here
The latest post from them: https://x.com/bandcampunited/status/1710280630163177624?s=46&t=z1wKo0SRc65EYnQhm_hQsQ
“Songtradr dropped a new press statement but still hasn’t recognized our union. This Bandcamp United Friday, keep buying music & help us fight for our union by emailing Paul, CEO of Songtradr.
Please keep the emails respectful! Post a screenshot & tag us on social media.”
Keep in mind they are NOT calling for a boycott, just for you to make your voice heard!
putting this here now so I remember
Friday the 6th is Bandcamp Friday!! So Bandcamp won’t be taking its cut of the music you buy!! I’ll be getting the palisade album this week I think

Transcript for easier copying/accessibility!
