And if you've NOT listened RFF or haven't in awhile... give a listen again sometime. Tons of new stuff.

https://radiofreefedi.net

There are 3 channels:

• main channel is eclectic, to say the least
• comfy serves softer tones, for smoother sailing
• specialty has blocks of programming, with a block for everyone

https://party.radiofreefedi.net/ has video and chat feeds for periodic programming like live sets by #fedi musicians. Watch that space for scheduled events. Follow @radiofreefedi as well.

And don't forget to support the fedi artists themselves who contribute music and voiceovers and station identification, etc.

You can find the now playing info on the web site https://radiofreefedi.net and see recently played tracks in a number of ways:

• Visit the @rff bot
• Or CSVs for each of the 3 stations:
• https://radiofreefedi.net/np/recent.txt
• https://radiofreefedi.net/np/recentComfy.txt
• https://radiofreefedi.net/np/recentSpecialty.txt

Within those links you can find the artist's fedi profile links and artist support links.

The other nice thing is, RFF runs very transparently, posting regular state of the station posts to help contributors, listeners, everyone see what is going on inside.

Nobody asked for this! This is just good practice and really helps you understand the mindset of everyone involved:

It is clear artists, collab, support are at the top of the list, always.
