https://mastodon.social/@tibrnowplayingbot.rss
Beware! The bot posts frequently because there is a new track playing on one of the many channels every minute or so. Lots of music means lots of news.

@sknob @schratze YEESSS! The radio! Internet & over the air.
I miss #RadioFreeFedi but there's plenty of options!
Through the Kind Generosity and Benevolence of Horace P. Bogardus... er, uh, that is @stefan ... #TheIndieBeat will soon enjoy #webscrobbler support!
Yay!

Y'all, I'm crying happy tears for once.
@MTP just made my day and week by sending me his newest CD all the way from Wales to the formerly USA! For free & with a beautiful handwritten note, all because I bought and loved his first album.

You are NOT alone and there are other good people out here. Find the others.
@limebar Do you think you might be able to help get him setup of #Faircamp and/or #TheIndieBeat
The Indie Beat internet radio has a spoken word channel now! Very cool!
https://theindiebeat.fm/spoken-word/
It has been added to the #roku app and is available (along with all other stations) using any of these apps and devices:

not.what.i.call.radio.bonkwave.orgNot What I Call Radio Bonk WaveA radio station from the Indie Beat playing music which may or may not be Bonk Wave.
The new #tibr "now playing" bot is humming along nicely.
I'm happy with the way it looks and works. Go check it out 
I'm hoping this can drive some engagement with the artists and enable discovery that tiny bit more.
@musicproduction people you can get your tracks played on air by uploading to Bandwagon, checking the "Distribute to The Indie Beat" box, and tagging your genres.

Somehow I failed to boost this at the time and also completely missed the update from the future (at least at the time of writing) 
Great insight into the creation of the #TheIndieBeat GNOME extension, plus a whole bunch of links to exciting projects in the #IndieMusicians / #FediMusic space.
While I remember, another couple of helpful links to musicians and resources (for the March update?):
https://indieart.support/

indieart.supportIndieArt.Support - A Community for Independent Artist SupportCelebrating independent art, community, comraderie and as direct as possible support for artists.
Continued thread
J’en profite pour signaler que la chaîne principale de The Indie Beat Radio est très bien aussi !
Elle diffuse notamment les albums présents sur https://bandwagon.fm (après consentement des artistes), dont 3 des miens 
Bref, mettez tout ça dans vos signets (et désabonnez-vous des gros streamers dégoûtants !)

Well, this is cool - my #GNOME extension for The Indie Beat transparently loaded the new @mixtape NHAM playlists, because I built it on the Azuracast API instead of a static list of .m3u URLs. I may need to re-think the menu UI though 
nice “problem” to have, more great #fediverse music arriving! #TheIndieBeat
"The #Bandwagon & #TheIndieBeat combo is very promising but...
... if only I could offer my Bandwagon-hosted music to other radio stations."
They contemplate it in the design! (see screenshot)
... if only The Indie Beat Radio would pull from other music publishing platforms as well!"
They are already exploring this possibility!

Musicians: please contribute your music.
Developers: please contribute your code.
Everyone: please try & test!
If you love independent music and also the #fediverse and are at #FOSDEM then I have stickers to share, come find me this weekend! #TheIndieBeat #Bandwagon #Art

@Vengeflow Hey, welcome! You'll probably find some fellow fans an artists at the #music and #lofi hashtags so don't forget to browse or follow them, and use them in your posts where relevant. You might find the Fedi music services #TheIndieBeat and #BandWagon of interest, too:
