A founding objective of @newfeelingcoop.bsky.social was to spotlight music all throughout "Canada," esp. in scenes adrift of industry strongholds like TO and MTL.

YIMBY was an early recurring feature we conceived to support that. Maybe it’s time to bring it back?

Our SOLD OUT 5th anniversary show tonight doubles as headliners' Slash Need's album release show.

@therewasnosound.bsky.social spoke with them about the band's electric approach to performance, the art of tease and denial, and feeling like a cockroach in Toronto.

At the beginning of the pandemic, the ad $ most publications rely on dried up, and editors started killing assignments. Publications closed. @newfeelingcoop.bsky.social is 5 because a group of music writers across "Canada" figured we shouldn't keep living like that www.newfeeling.ca/new-feeling-...
