I realize I’ve spent a lot of time over the last year talking about the importance of supporting artists on #BandcampFriday, but it’s just as important to support them every other day of the month, too. Without that revenue share, Bandcamp wouldn’t be able to keep the lights on.
With that said, I’ve made it a point since last week to start chipping away at my wishlist every Friday. Last week, I bought this cool 2-song single from Richmond, VA’s Unpressed 7’s RVA: https://unpressed7s.bandcamp.com/album/josh-small-richmond-day-parade
Followed up by this single from Baltimore’s own @BosleyMusic: https://bosleymusic.bandcamp.com/track/are-we-in-love
Today, I made my first new Legendary @pinkdots in years: https://legendarypinkdots1.bandcamp.com/album/curse-2012-remaster
And I snagged another release from @macadamtwister, from whom I originally bought a Ranch Ghost single: https://requiempouruntwister.bandcamp.com/album/deaf-hearts
It’s another Friday, which means it’s another roundup of Bandcamp purchases. I decided to fill some gaps in my @RippleMusic collection and snagged one of the few remaining limited “glow” editions of Arcadian Child’s “Afterglow”: https://ripplemusic.bandcamp.com/album/afterglow
Then I followed that up with @univox’s farewell release, “Impressions Both Old And New,” which is a collection of demos, live recordings, and other unreleased tracks: https://univox.bandcamp.com/album/impressions-both-new-and-old-2
And last, but certainly not least, is a gift from fellow @MetalBCgiftclub member @ivanbelcic, who snagged the @HerzschlagerHC EP, out May 7, from my Bandcamp wishlist: https://herzschlager.bandcamp.com/album/all-the-nights-are-done
The generosity of @MetalBCgiftclub members holds no bounds. A big thank you to @Zyklonius for the gift of some Adrift for Days ( @artascatharsis): https://adriftfordays.bandcamp.com/album/the-lunar-maria-2
Another week is ending, which means it’s time for some more @Bandcamp purchases. First up is the 2011 release from Little Wings, “Made It Rain,” on @gnome_life: https://gnomelife.bandcamp.com/album/made-it-rain
Next up is @naturalchild666’s 2012 release, “Hard in Heaven”: https://naturalchild.bandcamp.com/album/hard-in-heaven
And I’ve rounded out today’s purchases with the new single from @plainride, “Hour of the Mûmkil,” which was released today: https://plainride.bandcamp.com/track/hour-of-the-m-makil
