In honor of Bandcamp United, here are a few new releases I'm super stoked on—happy #BandcampFriday to one and all!

First, @LankumDublin's beautiful, bone-chilling new folk/drone opus; it's really like nothing else lankum.bandcamp.com/album/false-la…
@LankumDublin The new @DawnRayd album, 'To Know the Light,' drops today and shows a real evolution in the band's grandiose take on black metal anarchy. I wrote all about it for @dbmagazine if you'd like to know exactly why it rules so hard decibelmagazine.com/2023/03/20/daw… dawnrayd.bandcamp.com/album/to-know-…
Philly's own glittery grindcore avatars of righteous trans vengeance, @hirs666, just released 'We're Still Here' ahead of their massive 52-date tour, and it features so many cool guests your head will spin hirs.bandcamp.com/album/were-sti…

Firstly, this story should not go unnoticed. Let's do what needs to be done. Let's make @Google @GooglePlay know what WE as artists think about this absurdity and obvious corporate thievery. Let's not sit on the sidelines.
side-line.com/google-wants-1…
@Bandcamp is an amazing space and provides the independent artist with a plethora of ideas and tools to make their creative voices heard in this tough 'music business'. Google is literally a sham of a business. They offer 'free' products to entice us but use this model for ads.
And now @Google and @GooglePlay have decided to dive into the artists' pockets and take revenue from their Bandcamp sales. Ten F@$#! percent. While this is in court, we have to not let this stand. For once, really, we have to start to assert our power as people.

We're into our final releases of the year at @TheRecklessYes. It's been by far our hardest year yet as a label & we've seen most of the plans we had to grow shelved to focus on keeping going. It feels like time to share a bit about the challenges right now... 🧵
For those that don't know - there's just @razorcuts & myself at @TheRecklessYes. We're ethical, fully independent, supported by a membership & self-financed. We have an incredible roster, are artist-centred, & run as a not-for-profit taking no money for the work we put in
One of the biggest challenges is getting music made, especially on vinyl. There's more demand than ever & capacity is reduced at plants. This means lead times are now around 8-10 months, slots are sparse & snapped up by Majors for reissues & variants mostly

For #BandcampFriday I've compiled this expansive list (including diaspora artists) into @buymusicclub lists (where bandcamp links are available). Bear with me as these evolve and are pretty generic right now. Feel free to @ / DM me to be included.
First up, I'm chucking every and anything I discover by South Asian musicians into this one list: buymusic.club/list/aajkal-th…
I've further broken down the giant list into hip-hop here buymusic.club/list/aajkal-hi…

Hello! Here's a thread of some excellent South Asian music. I hope you find something you like in here. The list spans new releases, personal favourites, labels, seminal albums and gibberish I've been thinking about lately:
(For now, I'm going to be put the diaspoara aside. That would require a different thread) It's #BandcampFriday tomorrow , & I'm creating something @buymusicclub lists for this. In the meantime:
Firstly, let's shout out @prabhdeepmusic's 'Class-Sikh' Rapped entirely in Punjabi, the album sees the New Delhi artist wearing his heart on his sleeve, discussing the pitfalls of drug addiction, seeing friends in jail & being a survivor of a genocide prabhdeep.bandcamp.com/album/class-si…

En 2020, ese horror, hemos tenido una buena remesa de ediciones de #jazz de #archivo. Ha habido mucha cosa buena, incluido esto de @DotTimeRecords, con dúos de #piano y piano/batería de #LennieTristano. dottimerecords.com/product/lennie…. ¿Cómo viene #2021? 1/5
De momento, con buenas perspectivas. La misma gente de DotTime prevé sacar un inédito de #Tristano en trío en directo. Se anunciará aquí: dottimerecords.com/product-catego… 2/5
Más: #MaRainey ha vuelto al candelero y habrá reedición seria de sus grabaciones completas, incluyendo inéditos. Del sonido se encarga commodorestudio.com. Dados sus precedentes (King Oliver, Wolverines en Archeophone), se puede apostar a ciegas (¿a sordas?). 3/5

“Ek’s saying that musicians need to look at themselves less as artists and more as content creators. We have no muse to serve but the marketplace, and without adhering to the rapid 💓 rate that is Spotify’s demand for new food for their algorithm, our careers are bound to perish”
Let’s flip Spotify’s words:

“some streaming services that used to do well in the past may not do well in this future landscape, where you can't a (re)launch new groundbreaking music platform once every three to four years and think that’s going to be enough.” @eldsjal
"The streaming services today that are making it, realise that it's about creating a continuous engagement with their fans.

It is about putting the work in, about the storytelling around the service, and about keeping a continuous dialogue with your fans"
