creppy c. reider

if you’re out here doing your damnedest to make weird music to the best of your ability, then you are my fucking hero, even if i never hear what you’ve done go you. and thank you for what you're doing.

and this is why it's mind-boggling to me that there are people out there who have an appetite for music, but never share their finds with anyone. if everyone was constantly recommending things, that would actually make the music-making economy a hell of a lot better than it is. this is something i have kind of railed about for years. i admonish people to talk more about the stuff you love. and then link it. sharing music is morally upstanding business.

@jet@cloudisland.nz i’ve heard Carr’s stuff, it’s good

others i know of putting out AI slop music videos: Echo and the Bunnymen Megadeth Stereolab Plaid

i like how this is becoming a crowdsourced list of ai fools

Grace Jones https://youtu.be/RW8FBRYnKEY?si=EYHxvFYI1TUa_8d3

haven't plugged this one in a while... it was almost my final album https://c-reider.bandcamp.com/album/tape-loops

i wonder what percentage of art overall is an expression of being horny

@yhancik@thereisno.computer oof, the Igorr one is disappointing, haven't seen it. Nick Cave is a complete goofball, why does anyone still pay attention to him? ugh.

*shakes camera* IF YOUUUUUUU CAN BELIEVE IT IT'S WOIMSDAY ONCE AGAIN

@exinith@mas.to @ghostmeet@mastodon.social YESSSSSSSSS my baby, my dear beautiful jewel

they should make a movie with Johnny Depp, and Kevin Spacey, and Mel Gibson, and Rob Schneider. and then arrest anyone who goes to see it.

@jet@cloudisland.nz the Eagles were on this with "Best of my love" cause "sweet darlin' you get the best of my love" implies that someone else gets the other bits.

@bbiiirdbPhD@mastodon.social all they need now is rock and roll and libraries will truly be a one-stop-shop for everyone's needs.

apparently Songtradr itself is winding down? this statement is ambiguous wrt the future of Bandcamp. https://support.songtradr.com/en/articles/15306188-the-future-of-songtradr-what-you-need-to-know-and-do

@incentive@mastodon.circlewithadot.net me neither re: post-geodaddi material. until now.

i'm not a fan of the Marvel movies, i've seen some of them, they are a ridiculous diversion full of improbable explosions and silly dialogue. i can't remember a thing that happens in any of them, nor do i care at all about any of the characters. but this is flat out beyond gross. Avengers Doomsday is a union busting project, made with AI https://www.tiktok.com/@mikeofsteel/video/7664833063695781134

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social @exinith@mas.to and also, my top favorite Muslimgauze album is almost totally impossible to recommend to people because 1) it's out of print 2) it's called Re-Mixs, and there are tons of other releases with "Re-Mixs" in the title that are completely different from this one. not Re-Mixs volume 2 or volume 3, only o.g. Re-Mixs, the one with three long tracks. that is my shit https://www.discogs.com/release/61768-Muslimgauze-Re-Mixs

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social @exinith@mas.to (see i was trying to keep my list small, just a taster… like this doesn’t even touch on the opium drone stuff like Veiled Sisters et al)

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social @exinith@mas.to as the louder stuff goes, my picks are Lo-fi India Abuse Sarin Israel Nes Ziona Syrinjia Narcotic Sonar v Muslimgauze Muslimgauze v Species of Fishes Farouk Enjineer muslimlim028 Jaal ab Dullah

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social holy shit man, do you want a spreadsheet? i've got dozens of top albums from him. maybe, uh... Vote Hezbollah Azzazin Lo-Fi India Abuse

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social sounds like an epic event

@davecb@hachyderm.io recommend it to your followers

@jet@cloudisland.nz dope. this is nice.

@sundogplanets@mastodon.social wow that sucks total ass

my thoughts are with you tonight if you have ptsd and are near fireworks.

@rossgrady@dood.net i saw that, and i think because of some of the shifty shit that's happened in the past with bandcamp's owners / leadership, i default to extreme skepticism.

@sean_ae@post.lurk.org @toffo@mastodon.social @oxy@social.bsdlab.au i have a copy of an ad somewhere saying “drum machines have no soul”

@jet@cloudisland.nz ope, download link is borked. Edit to add: nevermind i refreshed and it worked, haha.

@ghostmeet@mastodon.social no fucking shit! wow. what was he like??? i literally think about him all the time. like what kind of person was he?

i've posted about this one a few times in the past, sorry if you're seeing it again. but it's just so damned good. https://wabi-sabi-tapes.bandcamp.com/album/the-wheel-claustrum

hey everyone on bandcamp, be advised there is a big phishing campaign going on through artist contact forms. many of my pals have gotten messages, as have i:

@jet@cloudisland.nz yeah, exactly - you don't HAVE to write about it. sometimes i drop links where i just say "i like this", that's fine. i like writing about music though, so i do it the slightly more verbose way sometimes too.

@soundclamp@mastodon.xyz nice. i think it helps whether there's a definite sale from it or not. just the sharing itself elevates the whole community, imo.

@exinith@mas.to @ghostmeet@mastodon.social Veiled Sisters is the _Queen_ of this shit. but let's see, there are so many, i kind of generally like them all in that style. some of my faves are Mullah Said, Sandtrafikar, Maroon, Gun Aramaic ...

@exinith@mas.to @ghostmeet@mastodon.social @soundclamp@mastodon.xyz yeah it’s sad tbh. Staalplaat (dodgy company tbh) is filling the gap with a ton of not quite great, but interesting posthumous stuff. the stuff released when he was alive is better

huh. if you'd asked me to guess what Rodney Anonymous from the Dead Milkmen might be up to these days, gothy darkwave / industrial would not have been my first guess, but you didn't ask, and that's what he's up to regardless. https://7thvictim.bandcamp.com/album/the-snakebox-singles-01

@amedee_de_murcia@sonomu.club @jet@cloudisland.nz oh, huh, no shit that’s cool

@Danpiker@mathstodon.xyz this might explain why blue xmas lights always look so uncanny to me
