Fair Trade Music Friday is back!
Last year the Fair Trade Music Friday platform provided a super way for people to discover great music on selected Fridays. 🪩
Fresh from a little hibernation its now back, awake, alive, kicking and raring to go again! 💃
If you’re a musician and would like to feature a release you have listed on a Fair Music Platform, simply follow @ftmf and reply to its toot on a Fair Trade Music Friday with a link and description for the release. Your release will then feature over at https://isitfairtrademusicfri.day! 🥳
28 Days Later (& What a Week!)
This past week has been tremendous in terms of Fedi releases.
It began on Monday with the release of the Comfy Collaborations album by various artists which was eloquently reviewed by @inpc.
Then came two excellent single releases: Dancing and Kissing by Bitplanes (@bazkie) and Cities by @sknob.
The week was capped off perfectly with the launch of @meljoann’s latest album, Status, which included a well-attended live streamed launch party.
This super release week also marked the fourth week since NHAM launched as an online music platform for Fedi artists who distribute their music on Fair Platforms. We’ve now been live for 28 full days and astonishingly we’re averaging unique daily visitor numbers well in to four figures already!
It’s testament to the thriving and growing indie music scene in the Fedi and on the fair platforms.
A huge thank you to everyone involved and everyone supporting, listening, watching and reading!

Bandcamp Friday is coming soon. You can get my albums in hi-res, some including scores, all including booklets and 100% of the revenue is for the artist. This is truely fair trade and fair music in times of art extractivism and digital mass robbery through AI models. https://jojena.bandcamp.com/ #bandcamp #fairmusic #digitalmusic
It’s the first Friday of the month. The first weekend of June awaits. Surely no better time to get your body wiggling, so I present to you the first #NHAM Mixtape! 🕺
🎶 …12 songs curated from artists found in the #Fediverse or using #FairMusic platforms. Read more about them and listen along via the link in this post. Enjoy your weekend!

Fair Music platforms can be defined by those which directly support musicians in a transparent manner. Ideally they are open-source collectives. In this article we delve deeper in to the good, the bad and the ugly in music distribution platforms, from the artist point of view.
The Good
I am sure there are some I’ve not yet discovered. If you know of any please do send me (Sam) a message on Mastodon.
The Bad
The following platforms, within the part of the music industry does not work on behalf of musicians, won’t be linked from this website if I can help it. Those which serve ads and trackers. No, thank you.
The Ugly
Once renowned for supporting underground music, allowing fans to buy downloads and physical media direct from artists and labels, and only taking a small fee themselves, Bandcamp has recently been through two large buyouts, with staff lay offs ensuing. It is neither open-source nor a collective. For these reasons I’d ideally like not to include it. However, I do understand that a lot of small and indie artists still rely on the platform and at present they do still get to take home a decent 80-odd percent of the sales fees, which is still a pretty decent return.
Hopefully in time more artists will be able to direct people to their profiles on the platforms listed at the top of this page.
What’s so bad about Spotify?
The info above is from a thread by Kydia which goes in to more detail.
Revenue Share
While Spotify pay from nothing to peanuts to indie artists, here’s how the recommended platforms compare:
