Word. It takes away a lot IMO.

Do you know them/talk to them?
I receive all of this shit in my inbox because people share their tracks to me. I don't listen to any of it.

Yeah it's usually people I've had varying levels of contact with. Wouldn't just send tunes to randomers I've never heard of obviously.

soundcloud unsolicited spammer name and shame thread?

that's why i follow just a few dozen people that i know at least from having a little chat or something.
i don't follow everyone who follows me.

How can you get send the email if they don't even know who you are haha, surly somehow you or he/she must have followed each other before for he/she to known who you are?

you don't get to choose who follows you, only who you follow
i don't just click on follow for someone because they are from say here, or leave me a comment or to bump up stats or whatever etc.
i follow people who's music i genuinely want to receive updates on their music or label etc

End of spam

sometimes the person sends the tune to me and the label

because the label email is linked to my own email, I get double spammed
