Friday is arrived and it brings with it a new batch of Other People's Music. This week brings us a deep synthesis of electronic music's finest moments into something new; some charming bedroom pop; a bit of sound design ambient; a taste of musical mania; and some videogame inspired composition.https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/11/01/opm-synthetic-mania/Read about it, listen to it and spread it widely via your boosts and shares.@electronicmusic@experimentalmusic @rockmusic #music #NewMusic #Listen #Musodon #FairtradeFriday

@etherdiver I think all the time about how much of a privilege it is to be able to devote time to "hobbies" like this, while making money off of a "real job".Here's hope for a better world, one day.

Aaaand that's it for this week! Remember, these are just a tiny *tease* of the full coverage of each of these artists. You can find the full thing here:https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/10/18/opm-something-new-something-old/And if you need *even more* new music, please check out the archives here:https://www.etherdiver.com/category/other-peoples-music/And if you'd like to see your music covered here, you can find info on how that works here:https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/04/04/opm-other-peoples-music/#OtherPeoplesMusic #OPM #MusicDiscovery #NewMusic #ListenToThis #MusicWriting #MusicJournalism

The next person that listens to this today, will be the first person that listens to this today. And doesn't everyone love being first? https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/psychedelic-ghost-storiesHelp an indie musician out and stream a few tracks, see if you like it. It's free to listen!

If you'd like to see your music covered in a future installment of Other People's Music, have a look at this post that covers most of the salient details:https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/04/04/opm-other-peoples-music/TL;DR is be a mutual with me, send me a link to a single release (album, EP, or single song) on an equitable platform and point out up to 15 mins I should focus on. That's pretty much it. DO that, and I'll add you to my list for future coverage.#OPM #OtherPeoplesMusic

This week's Other People's Music post leans hard into rock/pop song-based material, with 4 of the acts falling under some part of that umbrella -- plus one excellent eclectic electronic act, to mix it up. Read it, and hear the music, here:https://www.etherdiver.com/2024/10/11/opm-eclectronica-and-a-whole-lotta-rock/Once you've had a read/listen, give us a boost! @rockmusic @electronicmusic @music #music #MusicDiscovery #NewMusic #MusicWriting #ListenToThis #Musodon

And artist friends, consider pulling your music from streaming services altogether. Ask yourself honestly, what benefit do you gain from being on there vs what benefits you give away (actually, you pay for!) to the platform owners. Who's getting the better deal, here?Your music being there lends legitimacy to the platform and makes it easy for your work to be devalued by casual fans who might hear you in a playlist here and there but otherwise don't give a fuck.

Been a sloooow streaming month, so here's a thread where I take you track by track thru my latest release, Metaphysical Shitposting, and tell you something about each one that hopefully makes you want to listen.First off, here's the link to the album in case you just want to check it out because you love noise ambient, neo kosmische and experimental noodling:https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/metaphysical-shitposting@experimentalmusic #noise #ambient #kosmische #experimental #soundscape

Time for an #intro post! If you're a music fan on Mastodon (or elsewhere on the Fedi), please consider giving me a follow. I'm an independent #musician who makes weird, psychedelic electronic music with influences from industrial, dub, Musique Concrete, IDM and dance music (esp. techno and house).https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/I ALSO write weekly about the work of 5+ independent musicians on my site:https://www.etherdiver.com/category/other-peoples-music/#psychedelia #industrial #dub #MusiqueConcrete #IDM
