There's no Bandcamp Friday this month, but we still have Fair Trade Music Friday. Check out the Faircamp Webring, currently linking 84 sites where you can support independent music with a minimum of corporate involvement.

I recently released the “Cities EP” to give a new home to a bunch of related songs that were previously released as singles.

@ftmf My suggestion for #FairtradeMusicFriday is from Alison Wilder's #Faircamp site. https://alisonwilder.net/music/
I've been listening to, and enjoying, Misalignment by Doctor Body https://alisonwilder.com/music/misalignment/
Good stuff!
Alison is @alisynthesis on the fedi
I released a special track for a special friend’s special birthday on June 1st.
Such a secret deal it’s ‘hidden’ on our #Faircamp page but you can access it via this direct link: https://secretde.al/my-heart-tin/
It’s called ‘My Heart Tin’.
Happy #FairTradeMusicFriday to all who celebrate!

Head over to https://isitfairtrademusicfri.day throughout the day and check out some fabulous indie music links as they get submitted.
¹ eg #Faircamp, #JamCoop, #Mirlo or #SelfHosted etc.
Welcome to the submission thread for the June edition of #FairtradeMusicFriday.
As always, submit your own release or someone else's, it can be by #FediMusicians or not, hosted on #Bandcamp, #Faircamp, #JamCoop, #Mirlo or #SelfHosted, as long as it is by an #IndieArtist - it doesn't even need to be new.
Just make a direct public comment (with a link & description) to this post and it will appear at https://isitfairtrademusicfri.day automagically!
Why not make a muso's day and buy/boost their stuff
Incidentally it is #FairtradeMusicFriday tomorrow (starting in less than four hours), so it's the perfect time to stock up on some fabulous #FediMusic from fair platforms, such as #Faircamp, #JamCoop, #Mirlo #SelfHosted and whatnot!
New Album Release on my #Faircamp site: "Sonic Sketches Volume One"
This is a compilation of interesting bits and bobs that I've posted to #SoundCloud over the past year.
@freebliss added my blog post about how I use #Docker with #Faircamp to the Community Resources section of the #faircamp website.
If you have any questions get in touch (here or via the website) and I'll happily amend the article.
Huh. Apparently, #Spotify is a major money laundering platform for organised crime
Thankfully, no one actually needs spotify to listen to music.
Instead of paying a subscription for a product you will never actually own, while destroying the music industry and supporting human trafficking, you can buy music directly from musicians on platforms like #faircamp and #bandcamp
The #FairCamp web ring for indie musicians, hosted by the excellent @keefmarshall
I just did a big refresh of my #Faircamp site. I added lots more music, and finally updated to Faircamp 1.x!
That means...you guessed it...CUSTOM STYLES! Ooh la la. :)
So go get some free independent music to listen to this weekend!

My pick of the day is the Federal Soothing EP, made the day after election day last year. And don't we Americans still need some federal soothing?

@freebliss, I love all the Faircamp improvements. Thank you!!!
There's also a blog post about the anthem - check it out here: https://blog.650thz.de/posts/metalheadclub-anthem-song/
and if you're interested in our publishing platform based on "Faircamp" - check out this blog post on thomas-leister.de: https://thomas-leister.de/bandcamp-alternative-faircamp/ (German)
I'm pleased to announce that 'Pressure Wave' is now available on my #Faircamp site.
This track has garnered over 2200 listens on #SoundCloud in the past month. I was going for a gritty edgy sound, inspired in part by Iggy's 'New Values'.
The bass line is pure gold. Hopefully I can remember how to reproduce it on the #Hydrasynth LOL. I really need to start keeping a log.
Mission accomplished: spent the weekend rebuilding my website on #faircamp, with nearly 30 years of free, streamable, downloadable music I made or was a part of. Enjoy!

(Would be a nice addition to #Faircamp too )
One of the reasons I love modern indie music distribution means (e.g. #FairCamp and #Mirlo and the like) is that I can find the ten other people on the planet who would like the music I make and no one else needs to be bothered with it. I don't need thousands of listens on a legacy streaming platform; I really only wanted the ten people. (And if three of them buy me a coffee, that's a bonus win.)
so, I had bad internet or other troubles so I stoped after 4 hours and put the recording of the livestream at my #faircamp site - https://www.base.at/faircamp/dorninger/droneday/ #droneday. enjoy!
I created a new home for 4 (existing) songs that are intimately related.
So nothing new to hear here, but an opportunity to enjoy the songs in a new context on a new mini concept album nonetheless!
