If you pay for one or more music streaming services, I'm asking you to spend an equal amount this Friday on buying music directly from Bandcamp artists. Your streaming dollars DO NOT GO TO ARTISTS. They go to tech execs. Bandcamp dollars go to musicians.

Please share this widely, too many people STILL don't know that 99.999% of every dollar they spend on Spotify et al goes directly into a tech bastard's pocket.

The ComicsBeat is back with the year in review creator survey. They talked to me, and I had little of interest to say. But it is true I am editing work that is going to the largest audience I’ve ever reached at Webtoon/Yonder. And there are giant killer bugs involved.

One thing that many people will notice and probably chuckle about is that these surveys were completed before Hive collapsed and Mastodon kinda took off. I like it here.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all thro' the mall
Not a creature was stirring, God forgot them all

The Abandoned Randall Park Mall in North Randall, OH: Everything Must Go

The largest indoor mall in the US when it was built, the Randall Park Mall in Ohio was open barely 30 years, it had been abandoned for 6 when I visited it just prior to its demolition.

Friday reading. Stephen Mallinder interviewed by David Abravanel for CDM. #StephenMallinder #CabaretVoltaire #industrialmusic #electronicmusic https://cdm.link/2022/12/stephen-mallinder-cabaret-voltaire-interview/

"Words become plastic": Stephen Mallinder, Cabaret Voltaire founder, polymath, interviewed - CDM Create Digital Music

He's been a vocalist (as a founding member of Cabaret Voltaire), a lyricist, a vocalist. But if you know the incredible Mal from his past, you don't want to miss his latest, either - the groove is alive on the wonky disco Tick Tick Tick, "“cowbell on every track, and entirely no reverb.” David Abravanel shares words with the wordsmith and frontman.

My gift too all of you at this special time is my playlist of most of the new songs I spun on Suburban Dance Radio in 2022. 137 Songs at 8 Hours 52 Minutes. About a third of all the music played on the air this year. Said goodbye to Spotify early in 2022 after a couple years there. Which means... the New Music Mix is on Apple Music only. Hope that works for you. 📻 🎶 ▶️ #radio #best of the year #2022
