It's #bandcampfriday for 11 more hours, and I got myself a little treat! Something by @capgrasman.bsky.social, drew mcdowall and 3 from @activedarkfilament.bsky.social to round out my collection.

Today's new listen - 1 minute in on the first track and I am already loving it!
Available on BANDCAMP, "Lost Axioms" from ACTIVE DARK FILAMENT. This new music reaches for a dramatic or cinematic soundworld that is drawn primarily from the style of the classic Krautrock artists, specifically Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze:

Disappointing move by Bookshop Org. Supporting Spotify is not supporting artists. www.thebookseller.com/news/spotify...

If you're worried there aren't any bands capable of combining the best of early Zappa, Fripp, fancy crunchy guitars, fantastical synths, powerful vocals, and killer drums with their own incredible talent, here's some relief - @d3lahoz.bsky.social

Seems that @richardkadrey.bsky.social is channeling early Coil (or maybe Current 93 with less screaming)?

very insightful and from 2018! "When Devo formed more than 40 years ago, we never dreamed that two decades into the 21st century, everything we had theorized would not only be proven, but also become worse than we had imagined."

There are many horrible things to note here but I'm going to pull out just one:

How will people in rural areas access these farkakte A.i.-based avatars WHEN THEY STILL CAN'T GET BROADBAND.
