My album has been called "a musical junk drawer of synthesized ephemera" & "the last thirty years as narrated by a possessed MIDI sequencer." Another fan says "such a range of moods and textures ... a vivid world is built."

I've been a little bummed about the seeming slowdown of my Mastodon feed and interactioins, so it's time to take action. Looking for cool new accounts to follow (and hopefully get follows back) who are A) active/frequent posters, especially on weekends & b) into music, art, movies or something cool that ISN'T politics. (Enough politics in my feed, thanks. ) Fine if you post some (I sure do) but no politics first accounts. Suggestions welcome. Boosts requested. Follows likely followed back.
No better time than a lovely weekend to spend some time discovering new music. This batch of Other People's Music has a pair of weird rock experimentalists - one leaning into electronics, the other into classic Rock Weirdoism - two folk artists and ambient guitar!

A brand new Other People's Music is here! This week's selections form an interesting musical palindrome as our reviews cover weird rock, folk, weird guitar ambient, folk, weird rock (in that order). Fun! Enjoy.

I've written more than 300 reviews of independent music releases for my Other People's Music series. If you're trying to cultivate a collection of independently released music you can actually *own*, this is a great resource! Dive into the archives, & consider signing up for the newsletter version.

In an hour or two I will start on the new edition of Other People's Music, which means you still have time to embrace the current one while it's fresh! Hit the link for moody art pop, chipper chiptune, elegant chamber music and more!

I don't want to make it a weird competition thing, but... Bluesky has been delivering A LOT more musical submissions for Other People's Music lately. For example, this week's edition is ALL blueskyers... which is no reason not to read and listen to it. (Music isn't a competition!)

 That said, would LOVE to get a bunch of submissions from Mastodon...let's address this imbalance! Submission guidelines here:

 Also: NO AI, & keep it to one release.
Welcome to this lovely Sunday afternoon, smack dab in the middle of a 3-day weekend! What better time to get daytime stoned, put my new album on headphones and immerse yourself in The Mechanics of Mysticism! EDIT: If I get a dozen more streams today, I'll hit a big milestone, if that motivates ya...

 Even better with more powerful entheogens, if you're really going hard today! #MusicDiscovery #stoner #musodon 🎧 @npub14ks6...ndcg @npub1hlea...5lzc @npub198zz...vts4
Hey, can I convince you to check out my new album? It's 12 tracks of instrumental psychedelia for discerning psychonauts. A deep dive into the technology of mystical experience! Real weird! Real trippy! Let's goooo!
