alonetone is an independent music platform, allowing musicians to host and distribute their music in a non-commercial, easy-to-use environment.
alonetone launched in January 2008 (around the same time as soundcloud).
As of 2020, we host 80,000 tracks from 6500 musicians in production. We have delivered over 5 million mp3s to real listeners (not google and spambots, we are strict about excluding em!)
We use Github Issues to submit bugs and keep track of our work.

It won't work unless:
We get a LOT of requests from people asking if we can help them setup this "script" because they want an alonetone for a certain region of the world, or in another language.
Please understand that alonetone is open-source as an educational tool, to encourage collaboration, and for transparency. It is not intended as a white-label solution. If you are serious about getting your own copy in production, it's going to take lots of work (100+ hours).
If you still decide to try, keep in mind we are unable to provide ANY support
