Just a tip. You can get all these underground records if you are in the right place at the right time. Underground is not an end in itself, well almost not, but it is not agency music and also not pure entertainment music and also not hobby music, but it is self-empowerment, self-organization, only in this way can new paths be found. Not a single music genre was invented by the record industry. It was never just fun and games. It takes work, love for what you do and for those who came before you. And above all, it means breaking new ground. Even if it doesn't make the money ring in the till. What would SUN Records, this original cell to which we owe almost everything, be if it hadn't been absolutely new and at the same time absolutely true to the music of its time? Nothing. And with a bit of luck, you'd still be dancing the polka to three-four time. Support it. You're welcome to start with us ;) but there are many more. #music #underground #real https://suzyq-records.de

Bandcamp is just another prison
There's an unshakeable belief that Bandcamp is somehow the ethical alternative to Spotify and the like. Sure, that's even shittier. But Bandcamp is a greedy monster that lives off the talents of others, you have to buy into the playlists, pay very high fees and are at the mercy of an algorithm that favors those who are favored anyway. Using Bandcamp is like buying vegan products from Nestlé, it seems nice at first, but it only strengthens those who are actually the problem. Luckily, there is the FOSS scene and since yesterday I know that Simon Repp @freebliss has made a great start with his Faircamp https://simonrepp.com/faircamp/. A very lightweight static streaming site for bands and independent labels as it should be. It's still very alpha, but you can easily see that there's a diamond that just needs to be polished. Open standard protocols, no database, no PHP. You don't even need a server, a web space is enough. Super cool. Unfortunately I don't know Rust, but as a know-it-all I can tell you what sucks ;) I set it up as a test for my label Suzy Q Records https://music.undeadnetwork.de/. It's not really in production mode yet, but it will be. Looks super cool. Exactly what I need to get D.I.Y. Underground music onto the free net. Great project, well worth supporting.

Jedes Jahr zu Halloween wird Suzy Q Records ein Jahr älter. Dieses Jahr sind es 25 Jahre. Leider können wir nicht feiern,da die Welt ein Scheißhaufen ist und man das nicht noch gutheißen sollte. Erst kürzlich haben wir zusammen erneut ein echtes Untergrundmonster geschaffen, auf Vinyl. Checkt das aus. Sonst ist sie lang aus dem Haus. Verdient ihr Geld für Drogen und Waffen in der russischen Pornoindustrie. Ich bin sooo stolz!
