Last Notes npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS "Father, we thank you for the lessons of Black liberation theology which doesn’t just remind Black folks that god loves even when white racists don’t. You have taught us to question why white recognition remains important enough to wound our understanding of ourselves in the first damn place!" npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Briefly hanging out on Facebook and I saw the following post from Creative Commons artist Eddie Palmer: npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS @nprofile…3eqn Listened to the Deep INsessioNZ interview last week and found it quite interesting. You made a great case for the Social Music Network. I pop my head in every now and then to see what folks are talking about. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS @nprofile…3eqn Probably best to hear it straight from the source. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS F**k content, make ART. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS 🚨NEW EPISODE ALERT! 🚨 npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Last month, I had a great conversation with my man Mtume Gant on his podcast Within Our Gates, which examines cinema and the arts from a radical left perspective. We talked about the 1972 film Top Of The Heap, which was produced, directed, written by and starring Christopher St. John. Released during the heyday of blaxploitation, it sidesteps a lot of that genre's tropes. A truly unique and recommended piece of Black cinema. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS With all the posts on various social platforms about ditching Spotify for musically greener pastures, this Substack article gives us a lot to chew on, particularly music discovery outside of the algorithm's influence, offline listening, owning music files rather than streaming, and lots more. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Here we go again, kids. Netlabel Day is on the way. Big shout out to @nprofile…4kpe and the entire Creative Commons music massive. Let's go... npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS 🚨 NEW EPISODE ALERT!🚨 npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Shout out to @nprofile…uacv for introducing me to this artist on his podcast. Pop with jangly guitars, indie soul at its core, and head nodding beats peeking their heads out to say hello. Just the type of vibe I need for these insane days and times. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Nineteen years in the game this month, Camp Lo-Fi brings back the occasional primal scream of the podcast feed known as BSOTS GONE (buck)WILD. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS I will always cherish the memories and connections made during my time at Bondfire Radio. It was on the first Friday in February of 2015 that Radio BSOTS made its Bondfire debut live from the Brooklyn studio. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS Every week, Jumpsuit Records is adding a new song or two to their extensive catalog of #ccmusic and it's easy to focus on the now while forgetting the work of this imprint's past. npub1hhk0mrvkdjlfjf48fnu54htyjrnuxenh4lv4js2drpmfvyyjpvrqnfttpx Radio BSOTS The Netlabel Day 2024 marathon internet radio stream has begun!
