Tell a friend to drop-in and listen and discover amazing independent fedi artists! Helping RFF reach new listeners is in turn helping our entire artist community. Massive impact from some simple sharing.
Submit your original music! Or, tell an artist friend to get in on the party and submit music. In most cases it’s as easy as a single DM.
Follow links affiliated with the tracks we play via now playing, the playlist bot, the playlist csv text files or the artist directory to: -Drop a kind word to an artist who’s work you’ve enjoyed -Tag us too, or #radioFreeFedi, it’s hugely rewarding to see amazing and kind interactions -Be an impromptu street team for an artist you’ve enjoyed hearing to help them reach new corners of the fedi -Consider the best ways you might amiable to for materially supporting artists if you have the means
Check out the schedule and setup a date with a specialty block of themed tunes to discover even more tunes and artists. Since know what you are signing up for, Specialty block selections can go a bit longer and wilder and feature tracks you will not hear on the Main and Comfy channels.
Want to perform live, busk, have a panel interview or discussion, host a listening party or album launch on our Specialty channel and/or video streaming channel? Can you offer some time to moderate chat in the video channel for a hangout? OR, does anyone out there want to record artist interviews? We could happily help recommend some willing and friendly artists. Or would you like to provide production help with any such events? There is space for just about anyone willing to be an active contributor.
Can you help to collate and assemble lists of things such as upcoming release dates from fedi artists? Write some friendly mini reviews of RFF artists we can post as RFF?
Can you provide about 5 minutes of voice read per month for a regular show that RFF will write edit and produce? We just need a regular presenter willing to record the intros and bridges. From a script verbatim if that helps.
Have some original longer form spoken word or other programming you can consent or is fully consented for us to broadcast on the Specialty channel?
You don’t have to be a musician to contribute material. Send in some things for theNews or theTraffic. Send in some fun station IDs. If you’d like to do a read, we have scripts and guidelines available if that helps. All good fedizens are welcome to join the party. DM @radiofreefedi for more info.
Other duties as required. If you have some regular time to offer, we can probably line you up with a helpful task! Or if you have an idea for any original or consented programming you might like to make for RFF please do pitch it. If you can help with how we might be more sustainable as a community service without burning out a volunteer, we are all ears. Local grants are tough because of our global reach and scope. Prominent global grants lean real heavy to dev of tech that will get thrown away in 12-18 months and less for community building. Corporate money is a non starter. Pledge driving to staff the place feels weird personally as it was never the intention of the experiment, but here we are, it’s not really an experiment anymore, and as a means to help and promote more indie artists it may be OK to the community? Any help here would be amazing.
Join us on a public RFF chat for general comradery off the mciroblog format, offers of time or help, feedback. Artists please ask for an invite to our artist and contributor group so that we can discuss station initiatives and how we might further help promote each other. #radioFreeFedi:matrix.org

Submitting music is cool, recording station IDs and “news” readings is good, help with organizing and volunteering for events when they happen, and sharing info about the radio with people who might be interested. There are also some tasks that need sysadmin skills.The station also accepts monetary donations for server insfrastructure and supporting the person who runs it, as it is basically a full time job. More information about submitting is on the main page radiofreefedi.net and on the blog posts on the mastodon account
