"In a completely unrelated note, Spotify is shutting down in Uruguay after the country passed a bill that requires fair pay to artists, as reported by MixMag. The company made threats to shut down when the bill was first suggested back in July and now it has followed through. A spokesperson for Spotify actually wrote Uruguay's Minister of Education, Pablo Da Silveira, to say that the country’s bill would force it to “pay twice” the amount of royalties to artists." "

Any Oxford folks going to be going to the upcoming generative music event?

I'll be bringing a bunch of my chiptune stuff to jam out and people will be more than welcome to get hands on with my gear.

An Interesting Artist I have just first encountered

#Music #WeyesBlood #Vocal


Synth genius Wendy Carlos studied physics & music at Brown & Columbia. She helped develop the 1st Moog synthesizer & her 1968 classical album Switched-On Bach went platinum. She brought #music & tech together & composed soundtracks for A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Tron & more.

Carlos was assigned male at birth & transitioned to female. Unfortunately, many journalists focus more on her gender than her accomplishments that changed music forever. http://www.wendycarlos.com

Wow, I found my first #Orca project from 2-3 years ago when I just learnt about it and was only trying to make #music with it (and didn't thought I'd stick to it so much). So let it be another #looptober loop.

I changed it a bit to use my current #sunvox setup though.


Fellow independent musicians: If we're ever going to break this cycle of platform dependency, betrayal, and disappointment, we'll have to build and run the MP3.com/MySpace/SoundCloud/BandCamp replacement ourselves. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/epic-games-cuts-almost-half-of-bandcamp-pre-songtradr-sale #IndieMusic #DIY #music #BandCamp


I finally managed to do something for #looptober

A loop patch for #orca, I just need to start it with some amount of flying operators and it will play itself forever, unless I block the path with something

Yes! I loathe the word content. I always felt like it diminished whatever someone was making (art, videos, music, articles, blogs, posts, photos, etc) all into one boring thing "content".

Where are the artists, the musicians, the videographers, the writers, the film makers? They're "content creators"...

I hope this is a step forward for artist appreciation.

Do you like listening to #music? Do you have a @Raspberry_Pi? Read, how we built our office #hifi 😀

A #RaspberryPi, a #hifiberry amp, and #AudioEngine speakers, running #volumio. But the possibilities are endless.


Today in #music we're back in the land of synthesis with the release anniversary of one electronic album to celebrate:

Happy Anniversary, Lassi!

I'm listening #Heilung since 2018 and it's one of the best #FolkMetal bands now. An unique sound and #music. I love it.


I can't believe it's closing in on 9 years since I release my Amiga/DOS album Astrayus Prelude.

I haven't played any of this live for a while but I still think it's super fun.

It's totally free, so feel free to download and share:

#lo0: 'a bit too far'

Following the success of the crowdfunded 'Made into Interlisp', lo0 followed up with what has since been dubbed the 'black bit album', breaching into the cyber-post-punk territory with an unforgiving anti-Mata sentiment.

The album featured a collaboration with Sev Gi, a sentient Pentium-M machine from the band 'Your trash' that provided vocals on track 7, Ballad of Computar Fyr, a musical retelling of the popupar myth.

Emily Haines of Metric is wearing a kick-ass dress in their new #music video for "Nothing is Perfect." It is part lampshade and curtain rod, I believe. I wonder if she is paying homage to that iconic comedy sketch from The Carol Burnett Show. Or maybe the Leg Lamp in A Christmas Story. Also the song is good. https://youtu.be/aWOCXCZ90p0


Teacher Zakariya Dauda Abdulgafar got in touch to share this incredible achievement by students in Nigeria. Using nothing but found parts and a used #RaspberryPi, the primary school team built a functioning #music player.

#art #history: kate bush (born #otd in 1958) is someone i draw once a year - & i guess i've done trading cards this time. 😀
i love kate because she:
a) clarified her statement about theresa may
b) has been vegetarian forever &, in 1980, schooled delia smith about it
c) has donated to the hunt saboteurs
d) is in a complete league of her own

It's very comforting to me that Tom Polce, who worked on every season of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, co-wrote all of the songs for "Subspace Rhapsody," along with his former Letters to Cleo bandmate, Kay Hanley. I absolutely adore both Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Letters to Cleo. So, things are looking good! (Less than 9 days!)

This is such a cool idea.

It's estimated that 100,000 new songs are uploaded to #Spotify every day.

Inevitably, that means loads of really great music never gets heard.

Thanks to Venus Theory, I've just heard about #Forgotify, which points you to songs on Spotify that have no listens, or at least no complete play throughs.

And I've already found some real gems!

I like to listen to entire records from start to finish. In this day and age of streaming, I think that makes me something of an oddity. Maybe it's just a habit I can't shake from the days when I was collecting albums on CDs, but I think a record that is thoughtfully arranged to provide a memorable listening experience from beginning to end is artistic magic. (This is why I'm especially partial to concept albums.)

Anyway, all of that ☝🏼 to say that I only share songs from records I enjoy and that I would recommend as a whole. If you like something I share, do yourself a favor: check out the album!

So here's a bonus share tonight from an EP that is absolutely worth every second of its 22 minutes of play time:

"Keys to the Forest" from Transformation by Mob Bounce
