Numskulls, Harlequins & Amusing Misleaders – NHAM Mixtape 10
Released on April Fools’ Day I had to give this one a fitting title. But the tomfoolery stops there. There are no pranks below. Only more great tunes found in The Fediverse.
Last month a brilliant little album of collaborations between artists who connected via Radio Free Fedi was released, including one track featuring yours truly. It was such a top album that I’ve included five of the collaborations within this mix.
The radio show version of this mixtape (where you have to put up with me talking a bit too) can be found on Audio Interface (@audiointerface) from the first Monday of the month.

@ahihiOriginally released on the first disc of last autumn’s 3-disc Not What I Call Bonkwave compilation, origami universe is a triumph in glitching, breaking and euphoric chanting. pulu is Miranda, a ‘computer sound worker’ from Finland.

@galaxybrainLondon electronic music producer Galaxy Brain named this song after a Korg M1 patch. It comes from a four track EP of the same name which she describes as a love letter to late 80s and early 90s deep house.

CC BY-NC-SA
@keefmarshallIn mystic tradition ‘thin places’ are energy fields where it is said that the veil between our world and the eternal world is thin. The space on the horizon where the sky meets land or sea is often cited as one of these places. This track captures that essence magnificently.

All Rights Reserved. Used with permission
@couniversRTFM! 😂 Great line. From the album COU which contains eight 3-letter-acronym titled songs, ZOE – presumably about the electric car – heaps the fun in to the funky. The deep vocal and content matter makes this a perfect sequel to Hot Chip’s Playboy (driving in a Peugeot with the top down) for the renewables generation! Although I’m not sure whether Norwegian DJ and artist Center of the Universe sees it that way, citing the album as a collection of obsolete technologies which once had promises of a brighter future.
11. DOINITRITE by Babu Menos
All Rights Reserved. Used with permission
@babumenosWow! Nods to Byrne, Gabriel and Bowie in this epic juxtaposition of a funky, happy-sounding groove that depicts an angry, greedy, needy, ruthless and narcissistic world leader who considers himself infallible.

Nativity Holy Advent Mashup – NHAM Mixtape 7
Welcome to the Christmas mixtape – Nativity Holy Advent Mashup! 12 festive-themed tunes to jingle our bells. 🔔🎄🤶☃️☀️
As always more info including song and artist links below the mixtape.
[If viewing from the Fediverse you need to click here to listen to the mixtape on NHAM]
If you’d prefer you can listen to the tracks as a radio show initially aired on Radio Free Fedi (click me).Lo-Fi Orchestra – The Carol of the Bells
Microcontrollers and boards in place of humans and their orchestral instruments. Each board connected to a central MIDI distribution aided by Raspberry Pis and another nano-tech. Sound complex? It’s all explained in a lot more detail here. Lo-Fi Orchestra has performed many classical pieces including The Flight of the Bumblebee and Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture but if you watch the Peertube video I’m sure you’ll agree that this Christmas piece is even more perfectly suited to this set up as the boards flash bright lights when their sound plays, creating a fitting festive lighting effect.
@diyelectromusicMans1 – Freezing Rain
Another one found on Peertube, this is a reworking of the original that Mans1 released with Hometaping on the Hip-Hop Taoists Album. It features Oliver H on lead vocals with Mans1 bringing the smooth French rap. The video has some lovely stop motion in the snow.
@mans1Futzle – Weeping Melaleuca
Let’s not kid ourselves that Christmas is all about snow and cold weather. Far from it as Christmas comes just days after the summer solstice for the Southern Hemispherites. This song from Futzle centres around a type of tree native to Australia called a Melaleuca – whose red flowers fall like tinsel on the ground in the heat of the Christmas hols. Although not a true story in it’s entirety Futzle says the lyrics are still meaningful and informed by her life. Indeed the tree itself did exist until it’s life was brutally cut short in 2023. Its memory though lives forever in this beautiful song.
@futzleSive – Don Oíche Úd i mBeithil
From the red of the Melaleuca to the green of the Emerald Isle. Performed beautifully this traditional Irish carol translated as ‘That Night in Bethlehem’ sings of the night in the West Bank when Jesus was born. Sive has cleverly interwoven parts of a Palestinian folk song in to this rendition.
@sivemusicLAGRANGE POINT 6 – God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Another traditional Christmas carol, this version was composed with the juxtaposition of utilising synths to create a medieval approach, and to great effect.
@jimdoneganCURXES (Robert Fidora) – I BELIEVE IN FATHER CHRISTMAS
They said there would be peace on earth. This is Roberta’s electronic cover version of Greg Lake’s classic protest song at the commercialisation of Christmas. What’s not commercialised eh? Peace I guess. Shit! -That’s the answer! -If we can find a way to commercialise peace we might yet find a way to make capitalism work. (We’ll need a way to commercialise degrowth too, mind).
@RobertaFidoraXylander – How Glad They Were
The sad albeit understandable announcement of the sunsetting of Radio Free Fedi hit us all pretty hard. One thing for sure is that the community we are all now part of thanks to RFF will live on. For the electronic music section of the community Pete Xylander has already begun putting together some shows for an electronic-based online station called @audiointerface so check that out if you are that way inclined. Meanwhile here is his Christmas tune from last year. Welcome the reindeer. How glad they were at the sound…
@xylanderWanda & Nova deViator – Wrappings
You know those jokes you get in Christmas crackers? Here’s mine:
Q: What do you get when you cross an electronic musician and a contemporary dancer, performer and choreographer who both take influences from breakbeat, trip-hop, dub, idm, electro, noise and other bass genres?
A: Presents! And this is one of them, nicely wrapped.
(It wasn’t supposed to be funny! Christmas cracker jokes never are. At least this one has substance.)
@lukaEugene K – the angel
I love the atmospheric build up in this and the way it merges in to a prog rock performance. Eugene K is a poet and artist who has created a brilliant telling of William Blake’s poem.
@eugenekThe L Plate Players – I’m Staying Home This Christmas
Written for her found Fediverse family, Deborah Pickett penned a country-Christmas song and asked many of those friends to collaborate on it. Deborah says that sixths feel festive to her, and so filled the chorus with them, excluding all thirds, fourths and fifths in the process – clever as ever, as are the lyrics!
@futzle, @herzleid, @jimbob, @nein09, @pelagikat, @philsawa, @pilum, @raaahbin, @sknob, @virtualwolftoadlilies – three stars each
We’ve got to have a bit of shoegazey pie for Christmas! From the ursa major album released in May this year ‘three stars each’ is a lovely song from the Nebraskans. There may be nothing explicitly Christmasy about it but the twinkly jingles combined with the stars in the title make it sit well in this mix.
@toadliliesBonkWave AllStars – We Wish You A Merry Bonksmas
2024 has been described the year of the bonk and 2025 is set to be even more bonky so we could play out with nothing else. I wish you a VERY MERRY BONKSMAS indeed!

Nueva Hora Agosto Mix – NHAM Mixtape 3
Tune in, slip back and enjoy the summery-haze vibe of the third NHAM mixtape. Recommended accompaniment: A spare three quarters of an hour, a warm sun, a light breeze, a comfy spot and a cool drink.
(Apologies to folk listening in the Southern Hemisphere. Despite this mix being a ‘hot summer’ soundtrack the tunes are all super enough to be enjoyed in any weather, but it’s in the dripping heat of the hottest summer month that they’ve been put together at my end so it does have a natural summer vibe!)
[If viewing from the Fediverse you need to click here to listen to the mixtape on NHAM]
If you’d prefer you can listen to the tracks as a radio show initially aired on Radio Free Fedi (click me).- Ricky a.k.a. Impulso Bioelectrico – Say Yeah
Arrrrgh Yeah. Pump it up. When the sun shines and the heat hazes, this classic hip hop groove is the perfect accompaniment. I only wish it were three times as long. Ricky is from Palma in Spain and this track comes from the 2023 album De Buenas a Primeras – a collection of fine, short tunes. - Key 13 – L.U.C.A.
Key 13 has such a varied bank of works it was hard to know which song to choose, but I really love L.U.C.A. Some great vocal effects combine with synthetic and natural instruments for a beautifully balanced piece. It’s a pretty telling of the story of the connected nature of us and all life on earth. - Digits – Lost Dream
If you told me this was a new Junior Boys track I’d not have any reason to doubt it. -From the soft yet authoritative vocal to the jittery electronic beeps and beats. That by the way is very much a compliment as Junior Boys are one of the favourite artists of my lifetime. - Bandstahl – I’m falling
Okay, if you’re not in a hot place right now just close your eyes and imagine being on a sandy beach in the sun with a cool breeze blowing through as you listen to this. Life’s good, isn’t it? That’s how this one makes me feel. Deep beat, luscious vocal, warm bass, I’m falling! - White Town – Timeslip
Yes, THE White Town – I told you the coolest kids reside in the Fediverse. I was a touch obsessed with Your Woman back in 1997, so finding Jyoti aka White Town in The Fediverse was a very pleasant surprise. Timeslip is a joyous-sounding, catchy number although the lyrics hint at something darker in the underbelly. - AxWax – Schrödinger’s Bonk
What is Bonk? Can you handle Bonk? Take a dive in to the Bonkwave with master-proponent of the illusive movement to find out! I’d tell you more if I knew but I’m still working Bonkwave out myself a month or so after taking my first dive in to its depths. The one thing I do know so far is that I like it! - Xylander – Hectic Life (Busy Busy Busy!)
This is truly masterful. A 50 year old tape of Xylander’s uncle and grandmother recording a message to another family member has been expertly set in to a speedy dance track. Xylander lists Squarepusher and Autechre among his influences and you can really hear it in his work. - Fastachee – Lonely Negatives
I love the way this track builds as it wakes up from the intro and moves through the gears before unearthing some rare Fastachee vocals in the second half. It’s got industrial vibes, in the electronics department, and has a real get up and go about it. - YACHT – Finger in Your Eye
Fine, jaunty, indie-pop from Young Americans Challenging High Technology – something all of us within The Fediverse are doing whether we realise it or not! I was big in to YACHT back in 2009 so to have rediscovered them via Mastodon this month was a true delight. To then catch up on everything I’ve missed in recent years and hear that they’ve not lost any of their fun, unique sound means I’m now fully back aboard the vessel! - Fräulein Verdrieslich & Torsten Torsten – Jackentaschen-Chanson
According to the deepl translation tool Jackentaschen-Chanson translates as Jacket Pocket Song. I found this version on Torsten Torsten’s Peertube account and it’s a lovely live performance by the two artists in a park on a summer’s day. Apparently they had about 50 more verses for the song they could have included. Sadly my German isn’t good enough to know what they’re singing about but the joy from the performance needs no translation. I also love that at the start of the recording you can just hear the end of Fräulein singing Caravan of Love – one of my all time fave songs. - Huge Shark – A Prayer for Rain
Just like with Kydia in the NHAM 1 mixtape a powerful voice sucks me in so deep here. On this occasion it’s that of Valerie Polichar of Huge Shark. She wrote this song back in 1990 in reference to the droughts experienced in California at the time due to the early onset of climate change. The fact that things have only got worse since make this record continue to stand out. I want future generations to live lives where they can enjoy the best things in life such as Valerie’s voice and music without being impeded by the dystopian effects of climate change we’re hurtling toward. In order for that to happen we need to make radical changes to the way we live at present, and quickly! - The Liquid Clear – Sociate
Just like in last month’s mixtape the closing track is one to leave you hanging there, yearning for more. Experimental producer Bree D aka The Liquid Clear makes sumptuous sounds from Washington. Sociate is just one of many examples that can be found on her Bandcamp profile. It carries a spacey, nostalgic vibe complete with Joy Orbison style break down. Enjoy!

The day until when I can cancel my stay at one of these hotels is coming up and I need some opinions
I currently have 2 bookings for the 26th until 1st
1. The Radisson Blu which is right next door for: ~€1700
or
2. The Marriott Hamburg for: ~€1300
is the Radisson worth it, and does anyone have experience with either of these hotels?

Yes, if you class useless #aichatbots #aislop #aimisinformation as progress, not to mention
huge amounts of co2 emissions and huge demands on clean water and energy.I guess the $4.5 trillion #aibubble is progressing quite nicely too..

Comfy Collaborations
Review by @inpc
Comfy Collaborations is a collection of six co-productions by artists who connected through Radio Free Fedi:
Key 13 – The Space Between the Sea and the Sky (Default Media Transmitter Remix)
Starting with atmospheric ambient drones swirling around your head and steadily building, the track breaks out into some lovely crunchy rhythm, this version of Key 13’s track from Default Media Transmitter has a dystopian futurist feel about it (or does that just make it current idk?), Stuttering, echoing electronic drums joined by deep synth drones, but rather than stay in darker moods, the track sounds optimistic with some lovely twists and turns, becoming ever more dreamy and curious as the track progresses, culminating in a beautiful, soulful, bleepy breakdown. The drums return and all is well with the world. Perhaps there is hope for humanity after all…
Futzle ft. Aelyth from sideSister – Leave The Light On
An old time swing rhythm is quite the style shift from the previous track but the sense of optimism prevails and the opening line ‘I have to stand up, I have to be strong everyday’ is a sentiment I can certainly relate to. Aelyth’s vocal shines through on this track with electric piano and groovy tremolo’d guitar sounds. It makes me think of something Tarantino would use alongside some ultra violence, not that this track sounds at all aggressive, the total opposite in fact but I hope that helps portray the atmosphere of the sound? Well at least it does to this listener and it’s lovely song. Hopeful, optimistic and self affirming. Very cool.
C.Circo and sknob – You Are Not Alone
There’s something reminiscent of The Black Dog here in the way electronic textures are used to create a sentimental feel. The vocal sounds like it could be lifted from something very old, but it’s processed in such a way to give a contemporary feel “You are far away but you are not alone” There’s so much going on here, pitched vocal samples meet acoustic guitar and lovely Mellotronesque synth pads, cool drum machine programming. A gorgeous, intriguing piece of music. The sort of piece you keep finding new elements to on repeated listening. Something I feel compelled to do. Lovely stuff.
Matt Young & Edvards – Shame
A big bold opening with an 80s feel, not so much in the big snare, big hair kind of way, this is more reminiscent of The Cure to these old ears (hold on, didn’t I just say not big hair?! Damn, that will serve me right for trying to be clever). Another swing rhythm but this time with big, bold plonky piano keys with an open, chunky feel. This song tells a story of childhood mischief and a poor little robin being shot. Some childhood regret evident for this misdemeanour, ‘the things we do when we’re young and dumb, the things we wish weren’t true’ is certainly very relatable. There’s a sort of Tom Waits quality to the production with some nice story telling to boot. Poor little robin!
Secret Deal – Think Twice
At first listen I thought Philip Oakley had appeared in my shed! Lush, warm synth chords and a strident vocal reminiscent of The Human League but as the song progresses, more modern sounds come into focus with swooping, rising synths and funky guitar with a nod to Daft Punk. I should add an apology here, as a music maker myself, I’ve been critical of music journalists comparing work to others but, as my first music review demonstrates, it is a handy short hand to describe the sound. So apologies if I piss off the musicians involved! This is a great, sunny, good-time feeling song: funky disco with pulsing synth lines. Very nice.
Default Media Transmitter/Xylander – That One Day
This sounds big from the get go, crunchy atmospheric synths joined by a low pitched computerised vocal, there’s a reel sense of doom here. Dark, industrial, electronica with a dystopian vibe. Like a modern day Pink Floyd a la Welcome To The Machine. It paints a picture of desolate, dusty landscapes, maybe the last thing heard before the planet is devoured by an ever expanding sun? I’m not sure but I am sure I like it. Very cool.
Released March 10th 2025, listen to Comfy Collaborations here.

Hongos "Dedos de hombre muerto"
El Xylaria polymorpha es un hongo con un aspecto perturbador que crece en árboles heridos o troncos en descomposición. Su extraña forma y color cambian con la madurez, llegando a parecer dedos saliendo de la tierra.

Audio Interface Channel Launches on The Indie Beat Radio
As of today The Indie Beat Radio (TIBR) now has a TENTH channel with the introduction of Audio Interface (@audiointerface).
Already a firm favourite with Fedi music fans Audio Interface could previously be found on the non-federated platform, Mixcloud. But now its many guest mixes and great staple shows -which include Transverse Tempo by @CCirco, Forgotten Futures, Disturbing Dreams and The Ambient Hour (all by @xylander), and of course our very own NHAM Mixtapes Show by @ethicalrevolution- can be enjoyed on the station dedicated to Fedi Music.
This latest collaboration came about thanks to Fedi musician and Fedi music enthusiast Lime Bar: “After the very successful launch of the Bonkwave and NHAM channels on The Indie Beat radio, bringing two of my favourite sources of music discovery together with all of the other great music on TIBR, it seemed fitting that another favourite Fedi music discovery mechanism be brought to the airwaves,” he said.
“I reached out to both, made introductions, and asked if maybe an Audio Interface channel would work. Completely selfish motivation, really. 😉”
Pete Xylander who founded Audio Interface to promote independent electronic music shortly after Radio Free Fedi sunsetted had this to say: “I’m very excited to join in what Kirsten is doing with The Indie Beat Radio and I hope that new listeners will find their way to both TIBR and Audio Interface through this collaboration. The channel will play a mix of tracks from different Audio Interface shows along with full podcast episodes and scheduled blocks that tie in with shows. More info and schedule can be found here.”
Kirsten Lambertsen (@mizkirsten) who launched TIBR to showcase indie tunes from the Fediverse said, “I’m so happy and grateful to have Audio Interface launch a channel on The Indie Beat. We have @limebar to thank for connecting Pete and me (one of many acts of generosity). Collaborations like this are giving me life because I see them as harbingers of even more exciting things to come in the fedi music community. I love you guys, man!”
The Audio Interface channel becomes the tenth on TIBR: a third specially curated channel to go alongside five genre-defined channels, a spoken word channel and the channel of everything.
The Indie Beat Radio Channels:
So many options for discovering brilliant music from artists across the Fediverse!

fg reconnected with her family and I've been invited to their house for 4th of July (independence day US). I felt indifferent to meeting her family when I didn't think they were close, but now I'm really excited for it! She's been excited to meet my friends and family, but their schedules haven't aligned yet.

CW: fg smells
I was in a store picking out #deodorant with feralGirl. Their selection wasn't as good as the store by my place, but I picked up this axe stick that's usually bottom 3 when I rank a selection of axe deodorants. I'm interested in it now, I'm considering buying, so I ask her opinion. She's like 'that's smells like me, don't get it.'
Next week, I'm in her shower and she's got the same scent in axe body wash. So I think smelling it on her gave me a positive association with the scent
