    Favourites currently are:

    • Internet radio. Especially radiofreefedi.net which features music from people on the fediverse. I especially like their comfy channel. #radiofreefedi #RFF

    • Music podcasts. The Add To Playlist podcast from the BBC is my favourite. Each track they add is inspired by the previous one. Loads of great music, plus interesting guest musicians talking about music history, theory and vibes.

    • ViMusic. This is an open source front end app for YouTube music on android. No payment, adds etc. You can get it on f-droid. Found a few cool tracks via the algo but not as many as previous options.

    I have to say though that, like the boomers who went before me, I feel that music in general has become worse. I’m blaming the ‘winner takes all’ effect of commercial streaming platforms for the narrowing of artistic culture and the debasement of musicians.
