For producers
You made it. Don’t give it away for nothing.
Sample packs, loops, stems, project files, tracks — put any of it behind a follow and turn downloads into an audience you actually keep.
Midnight Drive — VIP Mix
Your Name Here
Free download — out now.
Free, with no plan to outgrow
There’s no free tier here, because there’s no paid one. Unlimited gates, every feature, no cut taken and no upsell when you start getting traction. TradeFile is built for people making music in a bedroom, not for squeezing a subscription out of them.
The fan list belongs to you
Collect an email on any gate and export the whole list to CSV whenever you want. You can also email the download straight to each fan so they keep a copy, message your list directly from the dashboard, and let people subscribe to be notified when a scheduled release goes live. Nothing about your audience is locked in here.
One link for everything you make
Claim a handle and you get a link-in-bio page at /@yourname listing every live download, themed to your colour, with your social icons. Add a background image to a gate to match the artwork, and make short links per channel so you can tell which post actually sent people your way.
FAQ
Can I gate a sample pack or project file, not just a track?
Yes — any file works. Upload it directly, or paste a direct download link from your own storage.
How big can my uploads be?
Each account gets a storage allowance, and images are recompressed automatically so artwork and backgrounds barely count against it. You can see your usage any time in settings.
Do I have to pay once I get popular?
No. There is no paid tier and no plan to move onto — the service is free and stays free.
Can fans fake the follow to get the file?
On SoundCloud, YouTube, Discord and Twitch you can require real verification, where we check the action against the platform itself. Other platforms stay on the honour system because they don’t allow that check at all.
