Musicians: is there any path to a sustainable career that doesn’t involve being glued to TikTok or grinding IG? I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and the thought of starting over as a “content creator” makes me want to vanish. Is there another way?

This is the last thing the BBC needs

10 ans après "In Morocco", @forestdlg.bsky.social aka Chemo aka Telemachus nous emmène en Thaïlande, où le beatmaker londonien du label High Focus a vécu 3 ans. Au programme, instrus syncopés à la Brainfeeder, samples du cru, psychédélisme et ambient. Chronique : www.indierockmag.com/article37909...

don't hold it against the Americans on this site at all, as obviously the state of their country isn't really their fault, but god isn't it nice, when they're asleep, aren't European mornings just quiet and soothing on the computer, before They Rise

imagine campaigning against this - against the health of children, older people, the unwell, the poorest of your fellow citizens, against public joy and sociality - and for the sovereignty of one, the hermit in their armoured poison box. pure thatcherism www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I hope one day to be able to take this journey. In a world at peace.

Am I right that the basic WeTransfer link only lasts 3 days now? That's just unusable now surely?

they actually did it...

The future we were promised: "you'll all be chilling and eating figs under the sun while the computers will do all the work" The future we got: "You need an account to log into your toilet app to take a shit"

Yep.

This AI clickbait is getting so good

It's going to be a long four years.

Child poverty in the UK projected to *INCREASE* in next 5 years. I swear it doesn't need to be this way

Are NFT's still a thing? I quite liked the idea of music NFT's (ok I like the idea of £) but didn't really look into it properly

Its funny, people i know who are creative and imaginative are using AI to create great things, and people i know who are on the duller side of the spectrum... Are using AI to create slop #AI

youtu.be/YqFdaurQpb0 New single out now!!!

This world is truly beautiful. I made a song over a decade ago about taking a bus in Morocco, and now some folks in america are shagging some cabbages to it www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhc7...

Newsflash: Sleeping is Woke

Need advice: producers! what's your method for tracking which artists have dibs on beats? Getting way too messy to manage from memory and DMs alone, especially when everyone's "definitely recording this week." Share your systems before I resort to carrier pigeons 🎵 #ProducerLife

The bosses know

The other day a waiter tried to kill a wasp & he forked himself in the side of his hand & made himself bleed. We didn't eat there again.

I actually dread to think how many podcasts are being made about this guy....

I’m worried that kids today are growing up without a video game series that teaches them 13 or 15 similar sounding skate punk songs

Can anyone explain the production on the new Kendrick thing? I'm not really up with the trends in US Rap music but it sounds like some No Limit Casio kinda stuff? Maybe its just not for me or my ears?

Might dedicate my 40s to sneering at people's cookware

The loudness war is over... And it seems loudness has won 🥲

Argh they fluffed it

THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED. HOPE YOUR ALL SATISFIED.

Tentatively having a go here. My feed seems to be mostly random pictures of the moon so far?

Scrolling through my following list to rebuild on Bluesky... and my heart keeps stopping as I remember that some of these people I used to interact with are no longer with us. Digital ghosts. 💔
