@botvolution Is it the Erika synths one? Or didn't 2hp do a. Polivoks clone, too?

@botvolution I make myself not use it all the time because I love how insane it is but I don't want *everything* to sound like it.

Or do I...

@ashnoodle @botvolution it is! Supposedly an accurate recreation of the original filter circuit.

@botvolution Those are all excellent utilitarian modules! Was just talking to someone else at another site about how the Wasp filter is basically mandatory in Eurorack.

@botvolution @synth @synths Well now I gotta ask...which two?

Did this for the first time in a while the other night. Still a ton of fun!

@mattly His sister is a huge Wings of Fire fan and he's read at least one of those. Maybe he'd try them again.

Anyone have any suggestions for books my 11 year old might appreciate to scratch the Harry Potter itch? They read the first book in school and enjoyed it, wants to read the rest but I've soft blocked them from my home and I don't want to use library resources on them (thus encouraging library to buy more copies...). I know of some good fantasy series but they're a few years out from being able to appreciate them yet...

If you can't take someone asking you, bluntly, "What is your point?" when you've made an unclear point online, then I assure you it's far more likely YOU are the problem with social media than I am.

I could have been more polite, yes, but you could have been less obtuse (and sensitive). Let's both be better, okay?

Album goes live tonight (barring last minute disaster), so here's a sneak peek at the album cover!

Rendering final versions now, then need to get everything uploaded and hopefully finish the liner notes (tho I'll launch with those incomplete if necessary).

EDIT: Alright friends, it's arrived! You can hear it here:

A brand new Other People's Music appears! This week we have dispatches from the weird fringes of experimental rock & electronics! DIY chamber pop! Politically charged hits of soulful downtempo & raucous Big Beat! Have a look and a listen:

Musician mutuals! I need one more thing to cover for this week's Other People's Music, so if you have a release you'd like to get more ears on (and have never submitted before), send me a DM.

Here's a link explaining the very few requirements:

https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/04/04/opm-other-peoples-music/

To that I have since added two things:

1) NO AI of any kind. Not in the art, not to write lyrics, nada. If you mess with that stuff, don't submit to me, please.

2) Everything has to be on one release, for logistical reasons.

Just sent a link to my new album to my realtor.

You never know where you'll find your next fan, after all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Also I think it's funny to send music to people who are basically obligated to listen to it because they're doing expensive work for you.

My tax guy is also familiar with my work.

This week's Other People's Music has some awesome selections from two of Mastodon's many fine musicians! @lislegaard delivers an awe inspiring album of experimental electronic music in collaboration with a tap dancer, while @liquid_clear proves there's still plenty of life left in industrial, so long as you're willing to take it down to the metal and rebuild it in new ways!

All that and more awaits!

It's a #BandcampFriday edition of Other People's Music! This week we have some off-kilter Plunder pop, a nice synth pop tune, dreamlike vaporwave ambient, minimal kosmische and a jazz/folk/funk journey of track.

It's #BandcampFriday in just a few hours. If you can afford it, I'm asking you to consider spending as much tomorrow at Bandcamp (or other indie music retailers) as you do every month on your music streaming subs.

$15 is nothing to Spotify but it can be HUGE to an independent artist.

If you absolutely can't spend any money, that's okay! You can still do a hell of a lot of good for your fav indie musician! A few things you can do, in rough order of importance:

It's time for the weekly teaser edition of Other People's Music! This thread is an intro to the full post, offering just the initial line of each review as a tease, along with a link to the music, socials and full write-up.
