Quite enjoying Lure Me by Eguana. A random find whilst looking for #NameYourPrice albums on #BandCamp
Hello Asia is the standout from my first listen through
Finally got around to adding a header image and profile description to my Mastodon account. I've also finally verified my web site. It's amazing how productive I can be when I'm avoiding work...

Digitakt OS 1.50 - An amazing update. Nothing we couldn't already do, but the workflow for chops and time stretching is so so simple now. Very elegant. Grab it here: https://www.elektronauts.com/t/digitakt-os-1-50/189531 If you didn't know, now you know, and I kind of wish I didn't. I already had so much work to do, and after messing around all morning, now I have even more!

If you pay for one or more music streaming services, I'm asking you to spend an equal amount this Friday on buying music directly from Bandcamp artists. Your streaming dollars DO NOT GO TO ARTISTS. They go to tech execs. Bandcamp dollars go to musicians.
Please share this widely, too many people STILL don't know that 99.999% of every dollar they spend on Spotify et al goes directly into a tech bastard's pocket.

Finally sorting out Gadgetbridge for my smart watch when I have a heap of work to do is definitely not procrastination... Stopping my data being mined by Xiaomi and automating my step count record in my journal is for sure more important than finishing important work and getting paid, right?
Not sure if I've recommended this before, but I'm really enjoying Phil France's Circle: https://philfrance.bandcamp.com/album/circle

@gallaimage agree, tho there is always a context for your work, even if it is unspoken. This is sometimes in your control, but not always. The context isn't "in" the work but is both inherent to it - as in, the context from which you created it, as well as outside of it - as in the context it is received physically, and the mental context of your audience. Totally agree tho that wordy explanations of a work usually take away from rather than add to.

If you assume our findings of 10x reach, Mastodon at 9.5m users has as much reach as almost 100m Twitter users. With this milestone Mastodon currently has 1/3 the reach of Twitter, a remarkable achievement for a purely user supported platform.

So, http://DISCMASTER.TEXTFILES.COM may be shut down at the end of the month, just due to the cost of running and maintaining it. I'm mentioning this just because I'd like to encourage people to use it extensively while next stage planning is looked into, so the maximum value is enjoyed.

I've had to refer to @bd's music theory page almost every day this week, really really thankful for this knowledge base. 🎼
