Banjo tries to talk with everyone as much as he can — and he keeps his eyes on the DL for all the new things going on in the music world, and what’s happening on our own label. Anything news-related lives right here.
Park the right curators until you have the credits or the release date, or hold a track for a genre with no curator yet — set aside, not spent, and back after 90 days if nobody joins.
Artists can mark a track as made with AI before they pitch it. Curators can choose not to receive marked tracks. It runs on honesty — nothing here scans audio.
Genre by genre, the tracks curators are adding after a real listen, and the curators who answer on time — ranked on reliability, never on how often they say yes.
Everyone on KoalaQueue gets a crate: what you own, what you are hunting, and what you have made — vinyl, tape, CD or digital — plus a public page and a feed of the artists you follow.
One independent artist at a time, picked by a person for the music and never for sale — and Koala Radio, a lofi station on loop for working through a queue.
Put up to 25 artists under one name: a shared pool of credits anyone on the roster can pitch from, everyone’s results in one place, and a page that promotes the whole roster.
Curating is free. You earn $0.50 for every credit a review cost, the same on a pass as an add. The first 50 approved wear a Founding Curator badge for good.
Install KoalaQueue like an app on your phone or computer, and get a notification when a pitch arrives, a review comes back or a credit is returned. Never marketing.
A pitch costs about $0.76. A curator earns $0.50 of it for listening. Here is where the rest of the money goes, and why that gap matters.
