#BandcampFriday

My latest release is the digital double A-side single of "Cyber Surf's Up" and "Pale Blue Dot". "Cyber Surf's Up" is kind of a New Wavey surfy synthrock themed around nostalgia for discovering the late 90s internet for the first time. "Pale Blue Dot" is a more downtempo track named after the famous NASA photo

I’ve enjoyed the music and sonic art of John Grzinich for many years now, going way back to his work from the late 1990s/early 2000s: much of it is immersive, extended compositional work that borrows respectfully from—and somehow gives back to—its environment.

20 years ago I wrote a soundtrack to an indie film that sorta fell on its face and never went anywhere after the premiere because of some falling out between the producers.

It is funny how excited I was to "break into film scoring" after moving to LA and then that happened.

The music is still some of my favorite personal stuff, so I released it all myself:

ok let me be more explicit on my sudden hatred of #bandcampfriday

It's not the first time we got this e-mail (attached to my message) from Bandcamp. Here, for me, I just read "Capitalize on your shit, engage engage engage engage, sell stuff".

I fucking hate that. Yiipee it's a bit more money on our sells, yay... But it just feels like this is the only thing they tried to save with the Songtradr buyout and they really are turning it into a capitalist machine. Bandcamp Friday lost its soul of helping audio creatives, first Bandcamp Fridays were created in Covid period, helped to fundraise union against police brutality when George Floyd was murdered by the police. There was a purpose, there was a team behind it, making it happen and feeling alive, like it was the aim for a progressist music platform to do such things like that.

I feel like the move here was like Songtradr saw how people looove #bandcampfriday because fans can support their fav audio creatives so they kept it alive so we, as customers, won't be bothered anymore by the massive layoff that happen during the buyout "because Bandcamp keeps doing good stuff for artists and fans, you know".
And this is fucking sad.
So now I hate Bandcamp Friday.

It's a #BandcampFriday edition of Other People's Music! This week brings us kraut psych, electronic pop, experimental noise rock, drone meets downtempo, & a funky Bowiesque middle finger to Donald Trump.

Snow In Summer turns one tomorrow! 🥳

@skysonix and I met here on Mastodon and decided to collaborate on some music and the release of this downtempo and chill drum’n’bass EP was a definite highlight of last year for me. I’m still really proud of this music we made 💚

If you’re checking out music today for #BandcampFriday, I’d love for you to give it a spin!

heyyy, it's bandcamp friday!

i just re-released the final batch of old music on my new bandcamp page, so it is now up to date with everything i've done so far :btr_bocchi_guitar:

"girls rock" is the sounds of a lonely android girl, as she floats around the moons and planets of an uninhabited star system, creating psychedelic bops and astral jams with the friends that live in her head :sparkles_trans: 🚀 🌌

also, to celebrate re-releasing everything i've put my entire catalog on sale for almost nothing if you like this sort of thing

thanks for listening!
