Endlich ist dieser innere Druck weg, ein Heardle gerne mitspielen zu wollen, aber eigentlich keine Zeit dafür zu haben.
Aber im Ernst, schade wäre es schon.

"framed" und "moviedle" demnächst nur bei disney+ oder netflix?

Zitat von G. Freeman im Beitrag #437

Ich werd's zwar nach der "Rückkehr" spielen können, weil ich Spotify habe, so allerdings wenig Lust darauf. Ein Teil in mir hofft, dass sich ein paar Alternativen (vor allem 90s, 00er) irgendwie halten dürfen.

Woher weißt du das?

Danke für die Erinnerung an Gonjasufi. Lange nicht gehört. Das Debüt gibts ja leider gar nicht komplett bei Spotify, merke ich gerade. Da muss wohl nachher doch die alte CD mal ausgegraben werden.

du bist ja komplett irre, aber wird natürlich mit handkuss vorgemerkt. mal schauen, wann ich demnächst 21 stunden zeit habe

Aus dem Newsletter von Phil Elverum (Mt Eerie, Microphones):

"It is happening again.

It just occurred to me today that we’re now in the part of the year where people start posting their year-end stats of music listening provided (as a sneaky ad campaign) by the various streaming platforms, especially Sp****y. Each year I see these posts and get all twisted up with complicated feelings and want to go off on one of my famous tirades, but I usually manage to keep calm and say it better. If you’ve heard it before, please do not be annoyed now when I repeat myself here:

Dear music enjoyers, thank you for letting me know that you’ve listened to so many hours of my music. Wow, it is truly flattering, for real. But… did you also know that you are letting me know that you have decided not to support my actual ability to make that music? Maybe you didn’t know? I feel like it should be widespread common knowledge by now, but yes, it’s true, using streaming services for music is essentially the same as theft. What little money you do pay as a subscriber does not reach the artists in any real way. Too small a slice. “Why is your stuff on streaming services then?” you ask. Because I’m trying to survive in a busted system, genius, and total disappearance would not help me or anyone.

I’m not an eloquent or expert writer on this subject, and I encourage you to even just read a tiny bit more about it. But I just wanted to acknowledge we’re in that weird time of year for these complicated interactions that come off as “I love what you do, but not with money, not with you getting to buy food”.

This is a poisoned gripe. The chances are high of appearing ungrateful for this immense privilege of having a life in music and art. Getting paid attention to at all is crazy in our spread-thin maximal world. I feel those things constantly and I don’t take any of it for granted. I only speak up on this one flagrant crime because my hunch is that these nice people streaming my music actually would want to align their practices with their ideals, their sense of ethics. Right?"

Rap dominiert dieses Jahr die Jahrescharts beim Streaminganbieter Spotify. Der Berliner Rapper Luciano war in Deutschland der meistgestreamte Künstler, sein Song “Beautiful Girl” war zudem der meistgestreamte Song.

Von Luciano habe ich noch nie etwas gehört. So fühlt es sich also an, in einer Parallelwelt zu leben.
