Last year, I released an album called Love scars
Which was built like a puzzle...
I made 1 cover for the album and a cover for each song
Making The album the box and each song a piece of this puzzle.
But As right now, an album can only have one cover
So, being the solution person that I am, I released 12 singles and using the same UPC the album ...
I ended up with double issue; 24 songs and an album in my profile Not being recognized by the algorithm
I contact you guys, answer was the platform is not capable we working on it... So I chose to take the album down.
I haven’t heard anything from about this issue and i am ready to come out again
still the same idea but this time around I have the solution
Today the Album has
ID - UPC - ISRC
My Idea is to introduce a fourth AT = ALBUM TIMELINE
I am calling it.
AT : Album Timeline
Would be a 4th Number related to the album
where the artist would have a track containing the whole album.
AT Would be presenting a whole new age for albums.
AT Would force and allow better transitions from and to the album.
AT would be pushing the listener towards listening a whole body of work.
And Again also only an OPTION.
AT would not interfere or change anything on the system currently running. Would simply be an extra option
Spotify, would just need to assign a number to all the albums already released, Or it could be introduced as an option to have (artist decision)
Even Beyoncé has already spoken on this matter
'Album culture dying'
Adding this AT option, would bring life to it once again.
The layout today is:
P
PROFILE __ Popular __ Discography __ select the album _ now inside the album
PLAY LIKE . . . .
# Title __ AT could replace the #
____________________
Now the listener would make the decision.
Do I want to listen to the whole Album with no skips?
or do as they do today.
It's simple but, presenting AT will cause a huge change in this age listeners. And a whole new era for albums.
I am really hoping to get an answer from this post
I could change dates but if I don’t hear anything On January 1st
I plan on releasing my album once again already using this model.
Thank you for reading.
