#slothcore — Public Fediverse posts

👕 We've got *new* t-shirts and stickers over in the FAWM merch store at https://fawm.bandcamp.com ... of course we have *old* merch, too!

🐾 And Juno, the official FAWM HQ tripawd in residence, is seriously interested...

Remember: Friday Feb 2 is "Bandcamp Friday" so 100% of proceeds from orders that day will go to support February Album Writing Month. 🤘

@reinderdijkhuis @beto Well TIL about #SlothCore, so thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I already knew about #SlothCore, a genre of very slow music that came out of #FAWM , but I did not know that @beto had put out a collection of slothcore albums and tracks with the proceeds going to sloth protection:

My third #FAWM track is an instrumental dark #slothcore track called "What it's like to have a 3-day migraine headache in a small off-grid home with no doors that you can close and a loud gamer in one of the rooms"

Bass guitar, Mooer Pure Boost, Korg NTS-1 (percussion and bass effects in one chain), ZOOM MS-CDR-70. Recorded on the Tascam DP-006 but mixed in GarageBand because I needed to clear out the SD card on the DP-006.

#FAWM update I'm not sure what I recorded tonight as #slothcore but it is slow and experimental, an exploration of superslow tempos, ambiguous timing and sound design using multi-effects. My ears need a rest now but I will make a mix and post it tomorrow.

I think tonight I will make some #slothcore.

OR… I just got an idea that's so silly I have to do it, and it'll help me get my A-rocker urges out of my system. The synthpunk version of "Turn On The Diesel" didn't quite manage that.

I created a label specialized in #slothcore, and we just released our first album: https://slothcore.bandcamp.com/album/slothcore-republic

The revenue will go to 2 sloth conservation societies in Costa Rica.
