Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

I have a livestream studio where I host bands for live performances and interviews and also run radio shows that play music from unsigned or DIY labeled bands.

We manage a playlist with over 110 bands and hit shuffle while taking requests every morning. If you’re a band with music you want on the playlist hmu on socials with permission to play it and I’ll add it. You have to be the copyright owner to get on the list.

We do all genres but various styles of rock and alternative seem to be the most common.

Here is also a link to the playlist:

Very cool man! Is there still a YouTube channel for the station. It seemed like most those videos were 10yrs old.

Check out our show tomorrow I have a live band called Die Tired in starting at 11am. The play hard rock grunge type music.

I got lucky to have a film student doing work study for a while, but aside from the handful he did, all other video is really from the guests themselves. But the show audio is posted online each week if you ever want to check it out - https://www.wmpg.org/show/wed1930/

Looking forward to digging into your show!
