    Congratulations!

  2. I don't mean to take a crack at musicians for making strategic decisions within the constraints of the world as it is. But I do think it's ironic to search for subversive, localist bands, and find them only on one corporate hosting platform;

    traumaparty.bandcamp.com/album/

    ... and not on any of the,
    non-corporate hosting services searched by Unstream

    unstream.stream/?q=trauma%2Bpa

    How can we make discovering and using these independent services easier for our musical friends?

  3. @smashedratonpress
    > Anyone out there in fedi-land, like a band or musician for example, using Faircamp to distribute or just show/catalog their music?

    Another good place to ask such questions is the #SocialMusic forum;

    the.socialmusic.network/

  4. A reminder that my interview about the.socialmusic.network for Deep INsessioNZ drops this week. According to the FreeFM schedule;

    freefm.org.nz/Schedule.aspx

    ... it will be broadcast at midnight on Friday 29 May, NZST. So that's midday that same day UTC, right? Disregard what I said here about that, I was posting tired.

    I haven't heard the final mix yet and I'm a bit nervous. Hope it comes across OK.

  6. As usual, my amigo SSSD will be hyping NZ Music Month on the Deep INsessioNZ radio show (also available as a podcast);

    freefm.org.nz/Programmes/Detai

    SSSD will be rolling out a series of kiwi music themed shows throughout May. Including an interview with yours truly about the kaupapa of the.social music.network, dropping 29 May. That's NZST/ UCT+12, so 30 May for those in the western hemisphere timezones.

  7. @benpate @sknob Ooh, this is cool!

    In @moshidon, Ben's post with the link to About Time displays like a Quote Post. Under the bandwagon.fm link is a preview card with a play button. When I click it the song plays. Fine and dandy.

    But what really got me hopping is that it *kept playing* as I moved around in the app, writing this reply! Navigating away from the post didn't cut off the playback.

    This is great UX. I presume @mirlo devs are aiming to do the same?

  8. Reflecting again on how to describe the #SocialMusic network to someone with no background in social web tech, I was thinking it's like an online festival. The different music-hosting services are like stages, except you choose your own performance schedule. You can go to any stage, at any time, and see any of the bands performing there. All under 1 ticket; any AP account, or a VIP ticket, a fan account on one of the music services themselves, with their music-specific interfaces.

  9. Hey @kidlightbulbs, got another feature idea for unstream.stream.

    Some of my friends send me music recommendations by just sending me a link to Spitify or YouTub, or occasionally Tidal Sometimes without even bothering to include any artist name or title.

    It would be great to to be able to paste those links into Unstream and get search results as if I'd entered the name of the artist linked. Bonus points for the right album, double for the right track: )

  10. One thing that's always bothered me about the BandCamp interface is that there's no visual indication of which records are singles and which are multitrack recordings. I presume this is a Dark Pattern, intended to make people spend more time browsing the platform.

    Side note: people have tried to rebrand these as 'Deceptive Patterns', but that's only one Dark Pattern type, and I like the subtle reference to the dark side of the force ; )

  11. Konichiwa @ureterocele.bsky.social, always good to see more musicians in the fediverse. I don't think we have anyone from Japan on this forum yet, where we're plotting how to liberate online music distribution from corporate DataFarming platforms. Come join the musical rebel alliance!

  12. Forget endless algorithms! Amazon Music is launching "Fan Groups" for a truly human way to find and share music. Think old-school forums meets streaming. Beta in Canada now, hitting the US next year. Would you actually use a social feature *inside* a music app?

  13. I just thought of a Dad joke nickname for the handle for the musician-centric social network being cooked up at;

    the.socialmusic.network/

    The musicverse. As in threadiverse, the "verse" indicates a subset of the fediverse, as well as being the bit of a song that comes before the chorus : P

  14. The Dividing Line is not just a song; it's a movement challenging economic disparity through music.

    I am sure real people will listen to it, and think about its lyrics, share it around and use it to take a stand on this important subject.
