In light of #Bandcamp being sold to #Songtradr, workers being locked out of internal systems by #Epic, and layoffs looming, @bandcampunited needs all our support.
Today's #BandcampFriday may possibly be the last, so if you have some disposable income now would be a great way to support independent artists that rely on the platform!
So this is fun, been on maintenance duties this week, yesterday opened up the Langevin filters, today checking out the Altecs! #Filters#MusicProduction#Dub
The album this is from, Second Selection (1999) is one of my favourite albums of kiwi down tempo electronica. Especially the final track, Time is Running Out, whose warning seems all the more urgent almost a quarter of a century later: https://piped.video/watch?v=I_r8yNFBSJc
If you're really feeling generous, I'm at the precipice of 400 #Bandcamp followers, too... I promise not to spam you lol! I send out fewer than one email a month there on average, generally announcing a new release or a sale I'm having.
And, uh, for the TRULY giving, I'm also about $50 below my sales goal...
This album is potentially/already my most listened-to new release of the year, and it somehow keeps getting better. Spaced-out dub, mad scientist guitar work, folky campfire singalongs, music concrete, psychedelic jams.... it's all in here. It's been a very long time since I've felt that a "jamband" album was anywhere near this good. #TapersChoice#Jamband#PsychedelicMusic#Dub#banana#2023Music#vinyl#NowPlaying
Has anyone here released a #rifftrax/#MST3K style audio track for commentary on a movie on YouTube?
We did one for the Mario Movie but I don't really know how to release it. Apparently rifftrax is the company name not just the concept so IDK if there's a better word to use for it
And who could forget the magnificent #NocturnalEmissions - your post- #industrial#darkambient freak-electro- #dub gig-going isn’t complete without seeing #NigelAyers at least once… so come to Yeovil with the rest of the cool cats… almost all of us don’t bite & the ones that do are fully vaccinated with clean and sharp teeth so you won’t feel a thing https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mHHWStdWNmc
If you've got 7 minutes and a penchant for trippy musical journeys, have I got a treat for you! It's "The Madman Drowns In the Same Waters In Which the Mystic Swims with Joyful Ease."
Quite a mouthful of title, I know (it's a bastardization of a Joseph Campbell quote), but I think it fits. Give it a listen and let me know what you think.
