Same here. They took down my entire album because one song was botted by Chartmob. So I paid to put it back up. two weeks later, botted again. Same song. So I reported that. A few weeks later again another song now botted. All by Chartmob. All reported. Then yesterday, I open my CdBaby profile and see I have been fined $10.49. They have not even addressed the two others yet they are so new. So now waiting for the ax to fall again. I am about just to pull all my music. This is too stressful and they don't believe you when you tell them you had nothing to do with it. Not to mention now I am out over $20 for just the first time.

I noticed that a lot of people are experiencing this with Finland. Yesterday, Spotify told me that someone added artificial streams to my song. Lately, I I've been worried about putting music on Spotify period. When I reached out, they seemed like they did not want to even listen to me and it was annoying. We work so hard to put our music out and who would've guessed we have to battle fake accounts.

Sorry to hear you have the same situation. As you can see there are a few comments saying the same thing has happened to us all.

@@Vekken I think you are definetly right! This is coorparate music trying to remove small musicians from accessing money they want to keep in their pockets, most likely. Benn Jordan made a great video about this issue.

Anyways, Back To Life is defo gonna be my most listened song this month, and it’ll no doubt take the spot for the most listened track within a month (current spot is held by Dear Old Friend at 142). And I’ll defo listen to Dreamers a lot too. All three tracks are prob gonna make themselves onto my Apple Music Replay one way or another. Oh yeah, I’m also looking forward towards the Vekken merch.

It really does. It has so much more energy with its current drop. The other drop sounded more like a filler if anything (nowhere near as powerful). But I still think it has potential in a different track since it’s a nice melody.
