Love the idea, but I've tried similar apps in the past and they all suffer from lack of critical mass, and/or lots of accounts with little activity. I'd love it if this one were different, but Craigslist has been the most consistent way I've found to connect with musicians. Other services I've tried are Hendrix (gohendrix.com) and Vampr

#156Would be interested in testing, however not available in my country.. is there a particular reason? Seems like some artists like to collaborate across borders.. it's not like a dating app where your location is crucial, and you want certain level of usage saturation in a particular region before expanding.. I guess what I'm saying is: why not open for all regions?
I didn't want to release the app without proper translations for the target countries. FYI - I haven't yet implemented the feature to toggle off "local-only" artists.
In v2, you could add profile pics, but the hard part would be finding artists similar to previously “liked” ones.
Is there a foundation model for music yet? If so, I think it’s just a matter of sticking an embedding for each audio clip into pgvector or whatever.
Anyway, since the gui has no text, you get internationalization on day one!

#157I'm the kind of person that needs stuff to be a group activity or I lose interest very very quickly.
Clone the app and call it L2Play, there's a bunch of noobs just like me.
edit - Lock it geographically, but not temporally. I'm as interested now as I was 6 months ago and will be 6 months from now.

#158What does swiping left mean? I may not want to collab with someone for a particular project but that doesn’t mean I never want to see their profile again. Also swiping left feels like rejecting them. What if I’m just browsing the artists? I don’t want to be rejecting while I’m browsing options. Also why am I limited to my area? I want to be able to collaborate digitally. I don’t need to be in close proximity to do th…

What does a drummer use for birth control? Their personality. (Agree with sibling posts, getting a great drummer is hard and amazing.)
I’m slow. Can somebody explain all the drummer jokes? What’s wrong with drummers?
