welcome to the first (and only) glass beach patreon page! this will be a major step towards all of us being able to focus full time on producing music, videos, and other glass beach content for your senses. after a lot of discussion, we've figured out a good way to mitigate two of our major contradictory ideals:

we want everything to be low cost and accessible.
we need to make money.

where we've landed, this will be not too unlike patreon as a tip jar. patrons will have early access by a tiered system to most of the things we make, but that's about it. this will, essentially, be a giant sponsorship program. the people who donate money monthly to us will be paying for the production of every other thing we make so that everyone will have access. as a patron you will be guaranteeing content for everyone.

the patreon will make that work a reality and expedite the process as a whole with patron numbers unlocking certain goals:

twitch production streams
livestream shows
early demo releases from the first glass beach album
recording new music
helping all of the members (including Daxe) do this as our job
etc.

it's socialism. the people with the means can donate so everyone can reap the rewards. if you don't like that model and are looking for something extra and exclusive from us, this may not be for you. we just don't want to exclude people from accessing our work based solely on financial means.

the hope is that we'll be able to focus and stay working on the music and projects we already had planned, just getting them done much faster by getting paid to do them now. thank you so much if you're able to support us financially in that endeavor. if you can't we completely understand.
