I'd label it as a music player and a store. You, as a listener, can browse the site and purchase music to add to your collection. Artists are listeners to, so they can do the same thing, but they also can upload their own music and monetize it. Aside from that, it has the basic functionalities you would expect from a site like this: favoriting tracks, creating sets, commenting - the typical stuff.

Honestly, I wasn't sure how to label it myself: I'm terrible with describing things. I'll be sure to give it some thought though.

So like Bandcamp, but...?
The revenue model of Bandcamp, the interactivity of SoundCloud. I think that's how I would describe it.
Looks great! You've offered several simple descriptions in these comments that don't appear to be on the site. It would be good if you included some of this language on the landing page so the purpose is immediately obvious...
