Bandcamp Friday [Aug 2025]

It's Bandcamp Friday, and the platform is waiving its fees for purchases made today. Head over to the DoC Tumblr page, where you'll find dozens of Bandcamp releases from the last few months that I think are neat.

Meanwhile, Chris Gregg's Ampwell has seen a number of recent updates and is growing its artist roster - it's not a bad idea to start supporting other independent streaming sites, especially artist-centric ones.

Cryptopsy | Devilpriest | Mortual | Reburied
Disembodiment | Bocc | Bludgeoned By Deformity | Haggus

Bandcamp Friday Picks [May 2025]

Bandcamp's new management recently posted a questionable missive recommending that bands/labels raise their prices on the platform. Their reasoning? "Fans on Bandcamp are generous and intentional about their support".

I'm not sure the generosity of your supporters is an excuse for price gouging. [Nor does it take into account that $6.66 is both a reasonable price for a digital download and totally kvlt.] But until artist-owned alternatives like Ampwall gain more traction, Bandcamp is still the best option for supporting independant musicians and labels directly.

Anyways, it's Bandcamp Friday, which means you can buy music without the platform's new profit-driven overlords getting your money. Here are some recent and upcoming releases that I enjoyed.

Bandcamp Friday Picks [October 2024]

In a foreshadowing of things to come, this month's Bandcamp Friday is sponsored by Roland, the manufacturer of both the 808 drum machine and the Boss HM-2 pedal. Let us take a moment to praise our new corporate overlords, and beg for their indulgence in continuing to have a day in which independent labels and artists receive all the proceeds from sales on this platform. Here are some releases that had me high-fiving the free market's busy invisible hand.
