Here's the weekly #OPM digest ! A one-stop guide to #music selections from 8 Fediverse #Musicians . It's a great place to get some #BandcampFriday selections, or maybe find a new favorite artist.
As always, you can find a permanent archive of these, with slightly longer writeups, at my blog. The permalink for this week's is here:
“Those Pearls…” is an absolute barnstormer of a #progressive/tech #house track, full of squiggly #acid lines, clever sound design (e.g. a train recording turned into a riser) and relentless energy. The drums hit hard, the energy is over the top and it's all in tribute to the creator’s dog Rita Frankie, who recently passed. Pour one out for Rita, turn it up and get moving.
The Bevis Frond - Homemade Traditional Electric Jam
Most of the huge Bevis Frond catalog is just good #noisy post #punk#acid#pop art #rock songwriting but every once in awhile they just cut loose. Not sure there's a better example than this 42 minute improv session to wrap up an excellent live album (link follows)
Sunday was #303day and I recorded a song with an #acid line to celebrate. While I don't own a hardware TB-303, my #Moog semimodulars served this role well.
#Radio Irrtum! is a German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastnesses of the #underground. Emitted transmissions will raise your attention for new unheard #music all over the genre spectrum from all over the world. Btw.: Forget about that German language aspect - it's all about the music!
And this time the topic of the whole is "hitter of crinders" (should be a fair translation of "Blocküren von Tieren") which by the way has absolutely nothing to do with anything that will happen during the show and indeed makes no sense at all. Just as I like things to be.
Because #RadioIrrtum always feels connected to open social networks, lots of mighty' n world dominating Fediverse artists will be featured, like @xylander, @limebar, @Lara or @rrrrroseazerty ! Because of your great music!
Also #CreativeCommons then and when. Because if you ask me, the music industry as we know it has to die.
As always I'll post playlist and manuscript later here (provided I’m at home, else it will come up the day after). And if you have questions about the music – I'll gladly answer! Just ask!
C U all tonight! :)

Tatsache, Radio Irrtum! ist wieder da! Samstag Abend, 20 Uhr über Alex Berlin auf UKW 91MHz/DAB+ Ch.7D (Stream URL oben).
Radio Irrtum! ist meine Radiosendung, in der wir zusammen die Weiten des musikalischen Untergrunds erforschen.
Thema diesmal: "Blocküren von Tieren"; leider ohne Zeit dafür zu haben, denn wird haben bereits genug zu tun mit:
Dance Macabre
Souly und Jazzy Beatmaker Zeugs
unglaublichen Bastardpop
Einen weltexklusiven Track nur für Radio Irrtum!
Acid, als wäre es 1908
Bass
IndustriPhemale Noize
Doomy BlackMetal
phemale Punk
Neues von den Genialen Dilletanten
DIE deutsche Underground-SuperGroup
LowFidelity von Kassette
Haufenweise Fediverse-Künstler*innen sind dabei (siehe oben), ein paar Creative Commons Tracks sind dabei - vielleicht stirbt dann die Musikindustrie schneller. Grüße oben, Playlist + Manuskript nach der Show (spätestens Sonntag) hier drunter. Fragen einfach stellen – ich antworte (spätestens am Sonntag)!
OK so here's my first post on Pirate Radio in the early 1990s. Older Fedi folks will know about my fascination with Bleeps so I'm putting my stories down.
That whole 'neo #GoaTrance' movement needed a few early classics to sustain its run to this day, and general sentiment posits this particular album is among said items in that discourse. Yay, highbrow dialect for wiggly, squiggly #Acid synths! #ElectronicMusic#PsyTrance#ProgPsy
I was daydreaming about building a x0xb0x - if that should still be possible at all. I'll have to take a closer look. But it would be cool! 🤓️ #acid#tb303#xoxbox#diy#kit
