I could program my own patterns, ok, but the thin snare was super annoying. It&#39;s all (2 operator?) FM Synthesis, no samples, that&#39;s why.<br/>Used it from 1988 til 1991 and found every trick there is to make the PSR470 sound cool ;) . As an east block kid this was all I could get, and I was very lucky to have it, but boy this snare!<br/>Can be heard in AG Geige &#34;Nasenwalzer&#34; (Track 19 of Yachtclub &amp; Buchteln, 1987, one of the weaker pieces on this album, still fun Text wise when understanding German). <a href="https://tapeattack.blogspot.com/2019/09/ag-geige-yachtclub-buchteln.html?m=1">https://tapeattack.blogspot.com/2019/09/ag-geige-yachtclub-buchteln.html?m=1</a> (I couldn&#39;t find it anywhere else on the net right now, sry for the complicated link).<br/>In this case it&#39;s one of the standard preset patterns, pretty sure.<br/><br/>But I came here to say: What a killer track you selected here!<br/>Probably the first time I&#39;ve come across this as the early 70s are still mostly a mysterium to me... this one is just sooo amazing!!<br/>I&#39;m a Sly Stone fan now, I guess ;) . Better late than never... 2026-07-12T04:16:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsd9qcpgeuec67ksts96vtn85g0xp8uu8ru3fcjlxl562rmrpghm9czyprsjft5ns6cgsyzk4g7ukjvxdu6y0v9yzwl5kguv9rsnmagunkvj0eu5tu I&#39;m in rage mode right now.<br/>Preparing my next radio show (with 38°C outside - it&#39;s cooler in my room but not much) and there are at least 2 so called &#34;labels&#34; that do not provide ANY info about the artists they are supposed to propagate. <br/>Both have a Bandcamp page with no further info, and then... Instagram only, where I am refuse to go - I can however scroll a bit through those labels Insta feed without a login: While they both announce the album I want to introduce, there is NOTHING about the artist to be found. <br/><br/>What is the purpose of a label then?<br/><br/>If you don&#39;t support your own artists?<br/><br/>I&#39;m kinda fed up by this.<br/><br/>Bad #labels | bad #artistSupport 2026-06-27T17:00:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsywd7nxr8nyzr3p7p2l2lwdqweu5krdwpsn606vxkaun2d9vr4m9qzyprsjft5ns6cgsyzk4g7ukjvxdu6y0v9yzwl5kguv9rsnmagunkvjs8hdjv I dunno, somehow this doesn&#39;t make me happy. <br/><br/>There is another alternative to corporate owned Bandcamp now. Not that Bandcamp is bad or something, but yes, corporate owned. Musicians releasing on Bandcamp depend on decisions by the owner. Rules could be changed by tomorrow. <br/><br/>So that&#39;s why we have now at least <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyd968gmewwp6kyqpqqjlxjcm7vgt7eh3chteucchysl2gv2a07ycxc3ce3txyrrkgc3eqg428n3" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyd968gmewwp6kyqpqqjlxjcm7vgt7eh3chteucchysl2gv2a07ycxc3ce3txyrrkgc3eqg428n3</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…28n3</span>)</a></span> and bandwagon.fm . Both born and operating from a free open source community spirit.<br/><br/>Good.<br/><br/>Now there comes - new!…<br/><br/>subvert.fm<br/><br/>They are a CoOp - means community drive by definition. Not bad, sure.<br/>But I&#39;m not too happy anymore. Because WHY?<br/>As a musician I have to make through 4 different complex release processes now:<br/><br/>1. Bandcamp (of course - this is, where people are discovered. Important thing for most musicians) <br/>2. Mirlo<br/>3. Bandwagon<br/>4. subvert<br/><br/>2-4 forcing me through a ridiculous user unfriendly Paypal alternative: Stripe.<br/><br/>Personally I have no idea at least for Mirlo how to setup Stripe in a way, people could pay per Album or per Title. In Bandwagon I didn&#39;t even try. <br/><br/>Now Subvert even advertises Stripe as a good feature, as it&#39;s not Paypal. But Stripe is US based as well. They have no problem to cut your money flow just for rumors of you being anti fascist (the most human and democratic stance) or someone claims you take money for doing naughty things (also human behavior in the history of mankind).<br/>This happened already.<br/>Good luck contacting their hotline in such a case.<br/><br/>While saying all this I&#39;m well aware: Anything not Paypal should be preferred. But there aren&#39;t much alternatives, and the one (one! besides Crypto) we&#39;ve got isn&#39;t necessarily and objectively better.<br/><br/>But the main problem I see: <br/><br/>We devide attention to musicians this way!<br/>Every new service takes away users and supporters from the others. <br/>And music is cluttered all over the place even more. Good luck finding that particular piece of music that could really change your life when it&#39;s on Mirlo only.<br/>Even more sad, when someone releases on his:her:their Faircamp only. How to find that when you don&#39;t know about the artist in the first place.<br/><br/>Personally I&#39;ve given up here as a &#34;semi professional consument&#34;. I need around 40h to prepare my radio show of 1 hour. I can&#39;t check #Mirlo, #Bandwagon, #Subvert, and the #Faircamp scene extra - on top of checking #Bandcamp. A lot of bands, let alone consumers don&#39;t even know about Bandcamp! And that is by far the most agreed upon service for indie and underground artists. Then there is also Soundcloud (which I hate) - lots of trap/hip-hop stuff is exclusively there.<br/><br/>If I read here in the Fediverse (my only social network) about new releases, best already embedded in your post - I&#39;ll listen. <br/>Don&#39;t get me wrong. I really wish for a community driven Bandcamp alternative. But I hate the clutter resulting from so many upcoming players in the field. <br/><br/>Which all can&#39;t be avoided - I see that too. Is this whole post worthless then? Maybe. Maybe not. I have no solution. I&#39;m just thinking loud. 2026-05-12T10:07:22Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszd32ena84wxl5607putlewvqmrsk5u4sz97jnf00jq4qejegs76gzyprsjft5ns6cgsyzk4g7ukjvxdu6y0v9yzwl5kguv9rsnmagunkvjmlpe7a In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszs6ay50u0ur64y5jp5gs7lejyx4dc9rhweqxzdtkyclvyw44d4nqpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerfw36x7tnsw43qv8ycps'>nevent1q…ycps</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyd968gmewwp6kyqpq36mup94rkacuezy22etktcayjshjdl2dfzwm09ts87zay68ajgqsygvqle" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>*jayrope</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…vqle</span>)</a></span> <br/><br/>Das ist der elende Sender.
