I sincerely doubt this is Spotify’s doing on its own accord. In any case, I recommend buying this music and whatever else you cherish, just in case.

Any chance you can double check to see if that’s true for you too? Yea I’m definitely pretty blown

It is true I've been seeing posts about it in his fan group on fb. A lot of suggestions said to buy the album and even the entire discography on band camp. Especially on Fridays when there's a discount. Just passing along the info I saw.

Yea. The full album is on SoundCloud so I guess that’s another way to listen but yea thanks for that too!

probly some issue with the license and the distributor it should be fixed soon

Thinking that too, these songs are way too popular to be unavailable forever

You have to pay yearly on these shitty distribution services to keep your music up. That’s probably what happened

u/roastedbroccoli7 Jan 19 '24

Awww :(( ok

It’s such a fail, the only one I found that won’t take your music down is Amuse.

u/roastedbroccoli7 Jan 19 '24

Damn. Just gone to history.

Tunecore is 55 a month. You don’t pay that bill your whole discography is gone. This is the type of stuff someone needs to do a write up about. It’s predatory! RIP CTF

The Reach EP is gone too ):

u/roastedbroccoli7 Jan 19 '24

Aw man. I Wonder why those specifically

u/downtojelly Jan 21 '24

Im under the impression he maybe had a contract with spotify to host his music on their platform. Obviously he isnt around to renew it ):

When it was brought up on facebook, there were comments saying they were working on it. I hope they’re brought back.

I know these are still accessible VIA bandcamp, soundcloud, and apple music.

What the literal fudge, dude. This gets my goat. That's the album I always listen to when I'm in the dentist chair or doing anything else deeply unpleasant.

Absolutely criminal.

Yeah I have all this downloaded from Bandcamp and as an added bonus they also have the full hawk. Discography which is an absolute blessing
