Alright… i havent posted to the dev log in a while. But Extrachill.link launched at the end of May and has brought some life to this platform.

I have a few more ideas, i don’t know which one i’m going to build yet, but i wanted to write them down.

Artist Merch Store 

i know i said this idea was shelved, but now i’m thinking it would fit really well within the band platform. i am picturing a Merch tab on the band profile that allows artists to sell their own merch on the platform. i think i could set this up. it would take me about a solid month of tinkering.

The vision is that there will be a Merch tab on all the band profiles, and the products from each of them will be listed in the Extra Chill Merch Store.

Taxes are the biggest thing on my mind about this. Who collects the money. I guess there is probably a way to make the money go directly to the artist with a small cut to Extra Chill.

I’m going to think on this one a little more before i make any moves.

EPK Builder

Sonic Bids has an EPK builder that has been their bread and butter for years. I think I could probably create the exact same system they have, but better and free. I’m just wondering if anybody even uses EPKs anymore. I rarely get sent them, or at least I rarely open them or see them. But if Sonic Bids is making a living off it, then it’s got to be in demand.

Indie Tour (Master Tour Alternative)

I just found out about this app called Master Tour that is the industry standard for touring bands managing their day-to-day. To rebuild this would be an absolutely massive undertaking and I don’t know that I’m quite there yet. Master Tour is some very impressive and cool software based on the little demo i received.

Overall, I have a lot of ideas and this place will keep getting more advanced and useful over time. Thanks again to everyone who is here!
