leaderboard shout-out brainstorming
since we've started the community, I've been toying with the idea of implementing the leaderboard in a fun/casual way. I'd love to give regular shout-outs to the most active guitarwavers. who are rn @Joe Cabrera as the all-time leader, @Martin Eibisch, @Freddie Webber, and @Simon Burkhardt for being so consistently present, and our new runner-up @Graeme Ross 🫶🏼 you guys especially make this place what it is. I'm so thankful for being able to come here and always find new conversations, topics, thoughts, support, and questions. you guys rock (calmly) ❤️ any ideas what a nice little thing/sign/gesture of gratitude could be? 🦦

@Joe Cabrera thank you buddieee, I feel like my heart is charging when I come into the community every evening—and this comment is all that in a nutshell. that you felt what I felt is amazing—I also feel like even though we act on music in two almost entirely different worlds, there is a similar root cause/driver. would you say it's the same for you, or would you say your main motivation comes from reconnecting with your son? and interesting, right, how clearly he said straight out that performing live is the pinnacle of music making for him. so foreign to me, yet that made it so intriguing as well. I mean, I kind of have a date with him on a stage now, so I better start looking into the RC-30 sooner than later 🥲🦦

@Freddie Webber awesome. couldn't dream up a better scenario for this episode to be enjoyed :) have you already gotten to it? I'd love to know your thoughts 🦦
how I make my tracks groove - tremolo stacking
I finally got around to finishing this little tutorial on one of my newly discovered favorite techniques to adding a groovy, organic element out of plane simple chords. hopefully this inspires some of you to also play around with some tremolos 🦦
@Joe Cabrera awww man that's special! I love that so much, and I'm sure that guitar will have a special place in his heart. is he playing already? 🦦
@Joe Cabrera haha good luck to anyone who wants to casually spell that 🥲 thank you for the shout-out though 😘 do you happen to have more than one tremolo pedal? I would be stoked to hear what you'll come up with!! 🦦

new podcast episode | 2025 recap
this one is a bit different; it's just maja and me (maja being the little dog I'm dog-sitting atm). I'm recapping everything I did in 2025, sharing how much I earned, what worked, what didn't, what I've learned along the way, plus a little preview of what I'll focus on this year. next episode will be with a guest again. if you have any wishes for whom we should invite on the podcast next, please let me know. sending you all relaxed energy from sweden 🦦

@Martin Eibisch thank you, my friend :) I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. it's a bit of a scary step to get more and more transparent with the whole process. I guess I'm moving more and more toward the “building in public”—which I both always wanted to do, and it's scary bc what if I fuck up? 🥲 as you said, I hope to see you on the next hangout call to cheers to that and your vinyl store :) and same to you, same to you 🫶🏼🦦

@Max Fedoseev hey man, thank you so much! I really feel it has been a long, slow incline. I guess it's really just a tribute to finding a system that worked for me / that I managed to pull off consistently for three years. oh I actually never heard of that. but now I'm intrigued, and I did a bit of digging here's what I found out. collabs don’t automatically mean shared reach, apparently. spotify does not reward the fact that something is a collab—it rewards signals that show both audiences actually want the same track (saves, playlist adds, follows). three things that seem to have the biggest impact on how the collab performes: 1. both artists need to be set as primary artists. if one is just a feature, the track behaves much more like a solo release and reach drops fast. 2. release radar isn’t spread to all followers. as I understand it it’s a bit like short form content algos—first, it's played out to a “sample group” of you and the other artists followers. depending on saves, playlist adds, and early engagement, it may or may not reach the next push to a bigger circle of your followers. and whether people have interacted with both artists before seems to play a role as well 🙃 3. especially with instrumental music, people listen for mood and use case. if the collab sits slightly outside what one audience usually listens to, spotify knows that and keeps the release rather quiet. since most of these were actually true, it's probably the missing engagement with the releases themselves that led to the push being not as big as I thought it would be. also I just compared the collabs with my other songs, and especially the collab on the "birds of a feather" cover is performing better than most other releases of mine. like the top ten, I think. I'll keep you posted on the my learnings, should I find out new things about how collabs work. now regarding pandora, that surprised me as well. I've already asked nat from sky valley about that, but he doesn't seem to have his fingers in the pie either. what I can see is that a few of my tracks (time off and flowers) both got picked up by big artists's radio stations—hermanos gutiérrez and khruangbin. how? i have no idea. but these bring in plenty of streams. I attached a screenshot. apparently most of my songs are 97/98% algorithmic plays.
