Bulk-editing Bandcamp per-track pricing

Bandcamp recently rolled out bulk editing for albums, but unfortunately it only lets you bulk-edit album prices, rather than the prices of individual tracks within an album. Fortunately, it isn’t too difficult to do this with a little Javascript.

For each album that you want to change the prices on:

  1. Open up your album’s editor

  2. Open up your browser’s Javascript console (usually using ctrl-alt-I on a PC, or cmd-alt-I on a Mac)

  3. Paste in this bit of code (assuming you want to set the price to 1.50 per track in your local currency; change the '1.50' to whatever value you want it to be otherwise) and press Enter:

    document.querySelectorAll('input.price[name^="track.price"]')
    .forEach(e=>{e.value='1.50';e.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'))})

  4. Verify that the prices are the way you want them and then click “update album”

Vinyl releases

I recently learned about elasticStage, an on-demand vinyl LP manufacturing company. I’ve always wanted to get some of my albums on vinyl, especially Transitions and Refactor, two albums which are very near and dear to my heart.

As such, I’ve set up an elasticStage page where you can order my stuff on vinyl! I’ll probably add more albums as they come.

I’m still waiting for my test copies to arrive (and they likely won’t arrive for a little while) so if you order a copy right now it’s at your own risk, but all of the reviews I’ve seen of the service are incredibly positive. On Refactor in particular I’ve scheduled it as a preorder to be released on June 14, which is both the 10th anniversary of the original release of the album and also my birthday.

I’ll definitely be reviewing the test copies when they arrive, and if you want to take a chance on something unproven, right now is the time to order, as the actual manufacturing lead time is currently around 6 weeks.

Bandcamp Friday for March 2025

Today, March 7, 2025, is Bandcamp Friday! That means that for the next 23.5 hours as of the time of this posting, Bandcamp waives their cut of the purchase price. So if you have any music you want to buy on Bandcamp, today is the best day to do it.

To that end, I have a new album out, which you might be interested in if you’re seeing this post.

Other than that, there’s what I’ll be buying today:

  • The entire discography of Vulthra
  • I’ll be doing catchup on err:Rawr’s discography
  • And the entire discography of Balance Lost, a Song Fight!er of note

Sharing is caring!

Fixed some template stuff

For folks who follow this site directly on bluesky you might have noticed that the view there has… problems. I’m mostly posting this to see if some of those problems have been resolved.

Unfortunately, as things stand, bluesky is really just not a great substitute for a proper feed reader, so I’d suggest getting one of those instead rather than trying to have a single social feed be your one view to the universe.

(Following my actual bluesky profile probably is a better experience overall, anyway.)
