Seeing as it's #BandcampFriday and #FairTradeMusicFriday, I thought I'd share the website IndieArt.Support, a website originally made and hosted by @radiofreefedi and now accepts artists of all types.

There's hundreds of artists listed there, most being musicians who also have their Fediverse, Bandcamp, fair trade music, and/or their personal sites listed!

https://IndieArt.Support

A reminder the RFF directory of artists lives on and continues to grow at https://indieart.support/

It is the biggest consented list of fedi present artists around. Discover music, writing, spoken, and visual artists and THEIR preferred support links.

While original scope was heavily music and fedi, that is expanding more and more.

Message @hello or e-mail to be added. It's not automated as #community care is taken to not platform those who punch down.

“How do I connect with artists on the Fediverse?” Cheat Sheet

This question crops up regularly on the fediverse, so here is a cheat sheet that should help anyone interested in finding fedi music and connecting with fedi musicians to get started.

TL;DR

• NHAM (@mixtape): This site, featuring links to fedi music news, reviews, events, radios, videos & releases.

• IndieArt Support Community (@hello): Vetted artist directory, built on the shoulders of the late, great Radio Free Fedi.

• Bonkwave Community (bonkwave & notbonkwave hashtags): What is Bonk Wave? What is not Bonk Wave? That’s right, and it’s also a thriving community of fedi musicians.

• Fair Trade Music Fridays (@ftmf): Fair trade music recommendations every first Friday of the month.

• The Indie Beat Radio (@mizkirsten): New Music Discovery, featuring dedicated NHAM, Bonkwave and AudioInterface channels, with links to artists.

Essential Background Info

• A new hope by Keef (@keefmarshall)
• Indie Music Ecosystem
• ‘Inside our Ecosystem’ whiteboard

Ahoy neighbours.

With the world/feeds as they are, I hope you keep fighting.

If you can afford, or NEED a moment of guard down, we've popped up the #radioFreeFedi #comfy channel for June in lead up to our next artists streaming series #RFFF25 in July.

https://comfy.radiofreefedi.net

A chance to discover and directly communicate with and support rad independent artists to keep creating. Hopefully improving your day with some quality sonic hugs.

Stay safe, comfy and keep lifting up one another.

❤️ 🐹

Hamster here. You still there? In my time out of the wheel sprinting to power the community transmitter and now with 80% less hospitals I have discovered the RFF studio had a kitchen all along. All I ever got was an occasional delicious goldfish dropped into my wheel. Based on this discovery, something is cooking...

The world is grim, the fedi is grim. I hope you have continued to lift one another up out there best you can especially supporting independent art. Stay vertical. 🐹
