Today #Bandcamp is donating it's profits to MusiCares.
I went thru my neverending list of music to check out, and picked:
- a couple of Fedi musicians: @Dace who I had discovered at #TheIndieBeat, and @melondruie who appeared on #NWICBW3 along with me,
- the missing pieces of my #TheNotwist collection,
- an album by #mewithoutYou, a band that I just discovered by a total coincidence,
- and last but not least, the new album by my favourite band #Motorpsycho (pre-order)
I released three digital "albums", a one-off experimental piece, and a song for the #NWICBW3 compilation, and had a great time not only with the music but also the concepts and artwork.
Next year I will keep going with whatever comes to mind. I usually don't have any fixed plans before I start making music, it mostly comes together when I sit in front of the instruments. But it will probably be more of the same: melodic synthwave-like on one hand, and drone/ambient/noise on the other.

Oops, I've just been told the release (just like all the others) can be obtained for absolutely zilch at

There are just too many people to thank for the #NWICBW3 release, using my limited character posts here on Mastodon.
Luckily I've been working on setting up a writeFreely blog, so what better way to start it off than with a parade of thank you's from the bottom of my heart for everyone who made this release happen over the last 4+ months:

Artists: the new #Faircamp version adds some useful features - for example you can easily link directly to one of your tracks, e.g.: https://bonkwave.org/music/not-what-i-call-bonk-wave-volume-003-disc-c/11/
.. there are also working embeds if you want to put a player onto your website - click the 'embed' button and copy the right iframe for your track to your web page.
There was indeed at least one problem with the site! - the FLAC zip file for the Disc C release hadn't uploaded properly - apologies to anyone trying to download it!
I think I've fixed it - please let me know if you hit any issues.

Here's my new track called Thirsty Dog: https://decibyte.net/music/thirsty-dog/
It's my contribution to Not What I Call Bonk Wave - Volume 003 - Disc C, and you should of course not only listen to my track, but the full compilation instead. All 3 discs are packed with cool music.
Get the full Disc C (and the other discs) from Bonk Knob Records: https://bonkwave.org/music/not-what-i-call-bonk-wave-volume-003-disc-c/
In the unlikely case anyone missed the announcement of a #BonkRave at https://party.bonkwave.org/
