Follow us for music updates from artists in the Fedi who distribute their songs on fair platforms.

NHAM is an online music magazine for all things Fedi-music. It draws connections between indie musicians, fair distribution platforms and listeners, under a shared ethos.

We publish regular new music releases, reviews and news from the community to an audience of thousands of unique daily visitors.

As the go to music curation platform in the Fediverse NHAM also hosts music videos, has a radio channel and contains gig listings for both real life and online performances.

We aim to help develop and nurture the ecosystem which envelopes all of the fair platforms that currently support indie artists in The Fediverse, and in turn enhance discovery, distribution, attribution, fair artist payment, consent and trust. Interoperability and community are key to making this work.

Beautiful Guitar Man Rocks Out

Following on from sknob on Wednesday, last night it was the turn of @bgm@octodon.social to put on a show for us giddy fedizens as part of @radiofreefedi’s series of live artist streaming events over the month of August.

This was a perfectly thought out set. Not just the setlist but also the aesthetics – Bedknobs and Broomsticks playing on the retro TV in the background surrounded by a plethora of gorgeous instruments – and the tech wizardry (seamless camera switches and graphic inlays) including recording of the event, meaning if you missed out live you can watch at your convenience on bgm’s Peertube!

Starting out with a tune played on what I was reliably informed by another attendee was a Q Chord (amazing!) bgm’s gorgeous voice accompanied a couple of his many guitars on display. First he was seated with an acoustic while the latter part of the show was full on stood with an electric.

bgm aka Brian/Bryan (sorry, unsure if it’s an ‘i’ or ‘y’) looked immaculate in his green hat, drumming cat combo and sounded absolutely superb. This man has true talent. I’m really loving these live sets and fortunately there are still a few more to come before the month is out. Check out the calendar here.

I'm Sam and I quit my Spotify subscription when I realised just how much great music is being made by independent musicians on fair platforms. I've been publishing the NHAM Mixtapes ever since.
