Music platform @mirlo is raising funds to keep running! They let listeners buy directly from musicians, with only 7% going to the platform. They're owned by a worker co-op and open-source too
I really appreciate what they're doing, especially with the instability at Bandcamp
On the eve of #FairtradeMusic Friday, I present puppet jealousy and scandal for those who may have been too afraid to watch before (💥 📞 ), plus some of my online homes.
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.
One of our most recent features is the ability to add tags to albums. If you're a musician and you've uploaded music to mirlo, please consider adding tags to it!
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:
