π³ Full Story¶
RawDigs is more than a platform β itβs an underground movement built around respect, love for music, and the freedom to share it.
Born from a DIY approach to making and listening, RawDigs connects independent artists, crews, and collectives worldwide. Itβs a place where unreleased sketches, rough takes, or fully polished works can coexist β a living archive of raw sound and creative process.
RawDigs is also a marketplace, but not in the corporate sense. We stand against the capitalist models of Spotify, SoundCloud, and Bandcamp that drain value from artists while monetizing their communities. Here, musicians and labels reach listeners directly, on fair and transparent terms. Fees are minimal, fixed, and purely meant to keep the servers running and the platform evolving β all profits go back into RawDigs itself.
No investors. No gatekeepers. No algorithmic noise. Just people who make, share, and dig music the way it was always meant to be: real, raw, and human.
RawDigs β a collective platform for those who still believe in sound as culture.
π Release Types & Formats¶
RawDigs supports underground creativity in all its forms:
- Albums & LPs β immersive journeys, concept records, long-form storytelling.
- EPs & singles β focused snapshots, experiments, or dispatches from the studio.
- Special cuts β warehouse recordings, radio edits, dubplate takes, live sets.
- Sound packs & sample kits β textures, loops, drum kits, modular patches, stem bundles.
- Presets & patches β hardware and software presets (Elektron, Roland, Ableton, VSTs).
- Collaborative bundles β label showcases, benefit compilations, cross-collective releases.
Every release can ship with metadata, credits, licensing options, stems, artwork, and liner notes so artists stay in full control of how their work is presented and monetised.
