In addition to Mirlo, I intend to get my music up on Faircamp, Funkwhale, Jam Co-op, etc.
But it took more time than I expected to get established on Mirlo, so when I went to the Faircamp site and saw a completely different setup that looks even more complicated, my brain was like NOPE. DRUGS ALL GONE. NOT ENOUGH BRAINS LEFT FOR TASK. :AAAAAA:
We appreciate the outpouring of support! As of now we're 93% funded and less than $1,000 away from meeting our goal. Thanks to everyone who contributed and shared today and throughout our campaign.
Wow, first two sales on #Mirlo!! And large sums too!! Thanks folks! Very much appreciated!!
For anyone else considering a purchase: you can put 0 in the box - I'm going to donate the proceeds to Mirlo and Radio Free Fedi so it will save on processing fees if you donate directly to them instead of paying me.
Mirlo's Kickstarter is so close to the line but they won't get any of the money unless it gets over that line in the next five days:
Le petit écosystème de musique libre qui se développe sur le #fedivers, autour de #radioFreeFedi, #fedivision, #Faircamp, #Mirlo et d’autres est le parfait exemple de ce qu’il faudrait faire dans un maximum de domaines. Contourner les multinationales, créer du lien, de l’entraide, du circuit court.
Si vous le pouvez, au lieu de donner du fric au géants du show-business, donnez des sous à @radiofreefedi ou @mirlo (une coopérative prometteuse) ou directement aux artistes.

Prochain achat prévu ici pour le Bandcamp Friday. Ce sera mon deuxième achat en "circuit court" seulement, le dernier datait d'il y a environ 20 ans 😆
Ocarina of Time (Super Guitar Bros). Album disponible à l'écoute et en clip intégral sur YouTube, mais vu le niveau musical, un achat CD se justifie totalement à mes yeux. @mirlo@radiofreefedi@Looping
I haven’t shilled my band here in quite a long time. We haven’t been doing much this last couple of years to be honest as the singer has a wee baby but we’ll get round to some new bits eventually.
We’re floored to see the support from our community. Thank you! We've published an update on the Kickstarter.
Turns out people like swag, our ts and swag bags are sold out, but we still have totes available. We're brainstorming some other swag options--thinking hats and patches?
We've also had confirmation of three artists on our compilation album, with more to come!
"'It appears Spotify has returned to attacking the very songwriters who make its business possible,' said David Israelite, the NMPA’s president and CEO [...] 'Spotify’s attempt to radically reduce songwriter payments by reclassifying their music service as an audiobook bundle is a cynical, and potentially unlawful, move [...] We will not stand for their perversion of the settlement we agreed upon in 2022.'"
