Why listen?

There are wars in this world right now – and there always have been.

There’s corruption and immorality exploding in the sky like dark fireworks almost every day, and maybe there always have been, maybe it just became more normal to have them flicker across Your small screen almost in real time and make You numb and numbered.

There’s the Epstein files and the ICE crimes, there’s climate change denial and a return to fossil fuels, there’s Spotify exploiting musicians, who they barely pay, and customers, who they feed with more and more soulless AI-songs.

Which is why I took my music off Spotify and Amazon. Never looked back, never felt better. So it’s just a few other streaming services (even if they’re not exactly saints either…) and Bandcamb. Subvert seems to be pretty cool, too. I joined as a founding member (it’s free) and I’m pretty impressed so far.

@ajaynemusic I will also leave them for sure in the future. what's the difference between subvert and bandcamp?
Show threadAnnika JayneFeb 7
Subvert is collectively owned by all founding members. They are also on Insta by the way.
