A long one, but that's pretty common for Hindustani Classical. This is a recording from 1974 of Surbahar (essentially bass sitar) playing rāg yaman. This serene evening rāg is similar to lydian, though with rules. Alāp Jor Jhala refers to distinct sections. The alāp is a slow free-rhythm exploration of the rāg, jor/jod () introduces a steady rhythm, and jhala introduces a more lively rhythm (a constant pattering of melodic raindrops).

Hello friends. I need work. A. to survive and fight, B. to make space for more art in the face of our dystopian present. I'd be amped if that work came in the form of music, sound design, sonic art and activism.

My wheelhouse is dark and dirty electronic for my personal work but I am an ex-pro who can remix damn near anything and can bend sound design to sonically fit cool projects. I have references. Some friends here on the feed might like to chime in to help my case?

I am available for donate what you can commissions for game assets, remixes, loops and beats, soundtracks, media tech support?. Keen to hear your ideas.

OR

Would you care to check out some dark dance, industrial, synthpop, powernoise, horror and dystopian soundtracks? This is a great time to donate anything at all, if you can, for my always free to download open catalogue [did you see my recent covers album release?] which thanks to your help is growing and hopefully much more this year.

OR

If you are in a decent place and might like to just send a few bones my way. This helps plan my year to not just be more productive and active with my own music outputs but also able to do collaborations, remixes for others, and my general backstage artist support and activism for the bard class.

Whatever platform you can tolerate using, I'll add to the kofi progress bar. I know there are many pressing and apex issues pushing us all for time and resource, so I really appreciate anyone that wants to help us go down with a good angry cathartic stomp. I am lucky to have a secure home but as I've shared in the past, I cannot work in public spaces so I subsistence farm and universe willing, make noise with my friends.

I hope to see you at this years web concerts and in the feed.

Stomp in solidarity.

Hello all,

A little side project to provide the fediverse with information i've been missing and have had to rely on FB/IG on to get:

Concert and festival announcements.

A ton of this information is only available on these platforms or sometimes days later through other platforms, often resulting in missing your chance to buy tickets.

None of this is automated and mostly catered towards my own region (NL) and interests for now (Indie/Punk/Metal/Hardcore).

#Introduction #fediverse #music





I just added 13 more instrumental tracks to my collection. If you need some music for your upcoming project (game, podcast, video...), Look at ondrosik.sk/music #cc0 #music


“…the answer to so many of the issues that are raised isn’t just switching to a new streaming app. The point is to encourage people to be more active participants in local music communities and DIY cultural production, and to support independent music media, buy music directly from artists, and reject the idea that it’s a one-click solution.”

Hello, I’m Colleen from Glasgow UK

I’ve found Mastodon in my decision to stop using FB/Insta/Threads etc, and so far am loving it - not least due to the lack of adverts :)

I’m an accountant by trade; pianist, dog and cat lover, and avid reader in my spare time.

I have a serious question out there for those who like listening to music. How much do you think a musician/creator should get paid when you listen to their music?

I ask because the amount is pitifully small if you stream - for Soundcloud it would take around 400 streams for the musician to make 1 USD and that is one of the better streaming platforms. For Spotify, its thousands of streams - fine for Lady Gaga but not for small creators, often in niche markets.

On the other hand many musicians sell their music for a few dollars for a whole album or less than a dollar a track. Yet few seem to avail themselves of actually buying music.

Streaming is killing music and combined with the AI generated trash that is all over platforms like Spotify one has to wonder how much longer the market for music generated by real people will last.

So please, go seek out your favourite musician and BUY an album or track. Don't stream and certainly don't use Spotify.

Hugs, Sammi

#Music:
So a Developer/Coder figured out a way to not just save, but archive and preserve 90s #MTV, 33,000 #musicvideos and various #MTVnews articles in an algorithm free format.

They’re probably on fedi. Someone find them so I can hype them up for no reason.

This is a masterpiece.

alt: Some clever guys and girls from Germany took four songs by Billy Joel and made it into a genuine Baroque concerto for two recorders and basso continuo.
In spite of what we're living through as humanity, we are blessed to live in such times. Imagine this before YouTube!



The production on this track is insanely good. Love all the interesting ear candy and little details. On top of that it's just a really well written song. Jess Humphries - Spite

Sometime around the 2020 era, we lost the right to be mediocre at things we love.

No longer can you just bake bread...you must start a sourdough side hustle lol. Wanna stay fit and go jogging or running? Nah, you gotta optimize your biometrics for a marathon. What my point is that every hobby has been enshittified and gentrified into a brand opportunity.

This strange infatuation with optimization culture is killing the human spirit.

So this new year, starting tomorrow, one of my resolutions is to do something bad but fun. Maybe I write a terrible poem. I like to draw and paint, so perhaps I will draw a horse that looks like a table or sing off-key in the showers or in front of my loved ones. The algorithm driving the mainstream social media wants me to be a polished product, but my humanity lives in these messy, unoptimized, cringe-inducing joyful failures.

I will try to reclaim the right to be an amateur. Will you join me?
