  1. being gay in Britain meant living in the shadows

    I grew up in a time when being gay in Britain meant living in the shadows. The 80s were loud with music, fashion, and rebellion, but silent when it came to positive queer representation... At Sixth Form, being 'different' was enough to make people afraid to be seen with you... Music became my friend, my voice, my protection. HEAR THE VERSION THE WORLD TRIED TO BURY“Quick truth.Streaming is convenience. Bandcamp is support.If you want the real version of what I create — the full-quality […]

  2. Slave wages for musicians and artists on Spotify and many other major platforms, except bandcamp and Amazon

    Now I'm going to be honest here, at three pence or less for each stream that you get you can see that you have to have over like 10,000 or more to even get something stupid like 10 pound and so that's not really enough money to pay for services and to save money you have to do everything yourself. So years ago I did this video and to help artists by giving them real money even if it is 50 pence for a song please go to bandcamp Click on link 🔗 for music in comments or bioWatch video by […]

  3. ARTICLE: “Why Artists Should Never Trust Instagram Music Promotion Ads”

    The Problem No One Talks AboutInstagram has become one of the biggest advertising platforms in the world — but for musicians, it’s also become one of the most dangerous.Every day, artists are shown adverts promising:“Guaranteed streams”“£3 promotion”“Blow up your music overnight”“AI video creation for artists”“Wholesale promotion”None of these claims are real.None of these services are legitimate.And none of them follow the rules set by Spotify, Apple Music, TikTok, […]

  4. I’ve learned something important about these bait‑posts

    As a mixed, queer artist who builds everything from lived experience, I’ve learned something important about these bait‑posts that keep circulating online — especially the ones targeting LGBT people or any group that’s easy to provoke.They’re not created for people like us.  They’re created to harvest engagement.Artists who write from identity — who build music from truth, not templates — feel these posts more sharply because they’re designed to pull emotional focus away […]

  5. the kinds of narratives that circulate online, especially when they target LGBT people

    I’m sharing this because it’s important to recognise the kinds of narratives that circulate online, especially when they target LGBT people or any marginalised group. I haven’t engaged with the original poster, and I won’t — not because the topic isn’t important, but because some individuals post deliberately provocative content with no intention of having a reasonable or good‑faith conversation. Their aim is to provoke, divide, and generate as much reaction as possible.  The […]

  6. “We are all individual and we’re different — that covers it all.”

    You’ve seen:- labels invented for fun  - labels used to troll  - labels used to vent frustration  - labels used to mock LGBT people  - labels pushed online as if they’re official  - labels preached at the public without explanation  This is exactly what happened with that LinkedIn post you mentioned — a giant list of labels presented as if they were established categories. That is preaching. And it does make people switch off.Your reaction is logical:> “If you want to be taken […]

  7. Everyone who walked into Heaven for the first time carried something with them

    The arches under the Embankment. The descent into the underworld. The first night at Heaven.I wasn’t the only one who arrived nervous.Everyone who walked into Heaven for the first time carried something with them — fear, hope, loneliness, lust, confusion, excitement, guilt, courage.It didn’t matter who you were.It didn’t matter where you came from.It didn’t matter how confident you pretended to be.Heaven stripped you down to your truth.I remember stepping down those stairs — the […]

  8. PART 1 — The Myth of “AI Slop”

    People throw around the phrase “AI slop” without understanding what it actually means. They use it as a blanket insult for anything created with AI, even when the work is original, directed, and crafted. The truth is simple: AI slop is not about the tool — it’s about the effort.Most of the content people complain about is:genericlow‑effortcopy‑paste promptsmass‑produceddirectionlessmade without intentionThat’s what “slop” really is.But people make a mistake: they assume […]

  9. First Big‑City Club Night (London Version)

    First Big‑City Club Night (London Version)A hidden London gay club, early 1990s, located down a narrow Soho alley. The exterior is mid‑century brick with a black door and no signage. Inside, the entrance hallway is dimly lit with deep burgundy walls, scuffed skirting boards, and posters for past club nights pinned to a corkboard.A small wooden table near the door holds stacks of Boyz magazine and The Pink Paper, their neon covers glowing under a single overhead bulb.The young man, now in […]

  10. Reaching for Gay Times” the moment before a young queer person reaches for a lifeline that could change everything.

    Reaching for Gay Times” A small, narrow London newsagent on a busy street in Soho, late 1980s. The interior is cramped, with tall shelves of crisps, chocolate bars, newspapers, and magazines. Fluorescent strip lights cast a pale, humming glow across the shop.In the centre stands a 19‑year‑old young man, slim build, medium height, dark brown hair styled in a shy, careful fringe. He wears a faded denim jacket, a white T‑shirt, and black trousers, typical of late‑80s London youth […]

  12. the backlash isn’t coming from “anti‑LGBT people” — it’s coming from inside the community as well

    Many gay people are openly saying the same Thing across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and even LinkedIn, you’re seeing:gay men saying Pride has become commercial. lesbians saying Pride no longer represents them bisexual people saying Pride feels disconnected. older LGBT people saying Pride used to be about rights, not branding younger LGBT people saying they feel pressured to perform identity trans and non‑binary people saying the discourse is exhausting gay people saying DEI has become a […]

  15. We don’t need more boxes; we need clearer language and less pressure to categorise people.

    People have always varied in how they experience gender — we’ve seen it in culture, history, art, and everyday life. The labels are new, not the experiences. “Non‑binary” simply means someone doesn’t feel fully male or fully female. “Gender‑fluid” means their sense of gender shifts. That’s it. The issue isn’t identity — it’s communication. When organisations push dozens of new labels without explaining them, people feel overwhelmed and confused. That confusion […]

  16. Pride exists because people fought for it.

    LGBT and equality Rights are lost through silence.Rights are lost through small decisions.Rights are lost through “policy changes.”Rights are lost when nobody notices. Pride exists because people fought for it.Pride continues only if people protect it.Pride disappears when support is withdrawn.LGBT and equality Rights are lost through silence.Rights are lost through small decisions.Rights are lost through “policy changes.”Rights are lost when nobody notices.

  17. The Inclusion Backlash Isn’t About Identity — It’s About Communication

    The Inclusion Backlash Isn’t About Identity — It’s About CommunicationThe reaction to my last post made something very clear:  people aren’t rejecting inclusion — they’re rejecting how it’s being communicated.Over the past few years, inclusion has shifted from a human conversation to a performance.  New labels every week.  Awareness days nobody has heard of.  Posts that shut down comments.  Content that feels more like signalling than understanding.And now we’re seeing […]

  19. Ho appena finito questo brano:
    A Stór (in irlandese significa "tesoro mio"). Marimba, pianoforte, basso fretless. Ispirato a Piazzolla, dedicato a Tiziana.

    Il basso è un Höfner 182. Ce l'ho da una vita e mezza. Il mio amico Massimo, chitarrista della mia prima band, i Carpe Diem, gli tolse i tasti e lo verniciò di nero. Ha un suono che mi fa impazzire. Spero piaccia anche a voi, e magari pure il brano 🎶🎸​:neocat_hug_duck_heart:​

  21. Ecco la mia [Foresponds](https://eidon.bandcamp.com/track/foresponds ). La percepisco come un quadro musicale. La parte pianistica l'ho scritta il mese scorso, seguendo i metodi utilizzati da Frank Zappa a tempi della Antelope Valley High School. La parte del contrabbasso è stata improvvisata e registrata nell'agosto scorso; è stata aggiunta qui senza modifiche e in uno stato puro di xenocronia.

    Spero che il risultato vi piaccia ^_^

  22. Hello!

    I see this as a musical painting. I created the piano part last month, by following the methods used by Frank Zappa when he was attending the Antelope Valley High School. The double bass part was improvised and recorded in August 2025; it has been added here unedited and in a pure state of xenochrony.

    I hope you enjoy the result ^_^

  23. CW: BandcampFriday

    “Evanescenze": una nuova raccolta di effimeri spiriti dell'aria, evanescenze che durano lo spazio e il tempo d'un sogno. Questo è forse ciò che è la Musica; eppure così vitale, così parte integrante del nostro io. Risuona con noi - forse perché siamo entrambi “materia di cui son fatti i sogni”... -- mono no aware (物のあわれ)!

    “Evanescenze” può essere scaricato, gratuitamente o al prezzo che vorrete, da https://eidon.bandcamp.com/album/evanescenze.

    ...ed essendo #bandcampfriday, i proventi per una volta andranno in buona parte all'autore. Grazie a chi vorrà anche solo ascoltare questo mio lavoro.
