Wow, I can't believe I've completed the set and participated in four tracks, one for each of the four #bonkwave compilation albums in 'The Four Seasons of Bonk Wave'. Before this community re-awoke me I hadn't really done any music for 15 years after feeling shamed away from it! Thank you, you lovely bunch! The four tracks ... 1/6

I have been waiting for the full release but I must admit I missed the synchronized publish for the first disc of Winter Wonderbonk, which my track Concrete Ice Shadows appears on, in some fantastic company that I'm honored to share the airwaves with! I have only published on soundcloud, but will be making visuals for and putting on bandcamp in time for bandcamp Friday; soundcloud linked below, check the replies for the compilation links! https://soundcloud.com/officialflear/concrete-ice-shadows #bonkwave #NotBonkWave

RE: https://nham.co.uk/2026/10/album-release-party-winter-wonderbonk-disc-1/ There may or may not be a brand new track by Secret Deal (@stefan@stefanbohacek.online, @ordosmarkzero@ravenation.club and myself) given it's first airing at this party, and it may or may not feature some superstar canines on screen. You just may or may not have to attend to find out whether or not any of this is true or false. (Disclaimer: I personally may or may not make it depending how quickly I can get off work on Sunday evening!) #bonkwave #notbonkwave

This is the first time ever I actually don't miss #bandcampFriday to promote my own stuff. 'ere we go!

Actually still brand new - my Album

TOTAL CLUB DESTRUCTION .

With lots of #Acid, #Bass# #GermanTrap #AmigaTracks #PopDance #Bonkwave and what not. Including my #Fedivision and #aciddecember entries of the past years.

Buy it now, buy it here, as if there is no tomorrow!!

You don't need to buy it though, it's also on Mirlo (ok, you may buy it there too) and for free on two #Netlabels: Der Kleine Grüne Würfel and Basspistol - wait, I said buy, now I say don't... what?? It's Creative Commons, it's free, you just decide if you want to support me (your money goes into financing my monthly Radio Show) or right now cannot. I deliberately don't put links in here, so you may search for it and stumble upon many other great musicians on your way.

And if you don't like my stuff, maybe you like my recommondations?

First of, if you don't mind cover art that is not exactly like that on your usual high-luster magazines 😂 (I definitely like it!), plus - it's the music that counts (always!), one of the greatest iDm albums of the last years (yes with a capital D because this one grooves like nothing else), check out @violethousekid@mastodon.online and her album Superposition.

Furthermore: Here is, what I currently thinking about getting from Bandcamp:

Bass/Halftime/Dubstep/140 with extreme attention to detail: The EP "Thorned Rose" by Kessler.

Punk with slight riot girrrl attitude: The single "SNÕÕPY 7" by Snooper (Snooper is soooo kewl, I cannot get enough of em):

And what I'd call IDM with oldskuhl 80s Industrial influences from one who worked behind the scenes with Coil and still is working with Nurse with Wound: The Single "Feral Child" by Scanner.

You often hear the phrase "This meeting could have been an email", well now it has a song, by me. Yes, it's new music day, this time a thunderous Muse-style rock epic celebrating the interminable meeting that shouldn't have been. https://marcus.bointon.com/this-meeting-could-have-been-an-email/ Please listen and boost! #BonkWave

Just if you are looking for what #BonkWave or #NotBonkWave might be you can read a great post by @keefmarshall@mastodon.online here https://words.key13.uk/thats-not-bonk-wave Also, for me personally, it means making music again, helping me work through grief and find the joy in the creative process again. I really cannot thank the community enough for being there not only for me, but I know for lots of other people too. That is just one small part of what #BonkWave is 🙏 Let there be Bonk.

Four consecutive, stupidly-long days of heavy and demanding #brewery labour means that I am #rewarding myself with a hot bath (it’s Winter where I am) loaded with Epsom Salt. There’s also 3.75g of medicated brownie and Ibuprofen helping me to unwind along with some of our Whale Played Red IPA. Friends, this week has been ridiculously challenging. I really wish I had time to work on my #BonkWave or #NotBonkWave #FSOBW track.

Replying to
@harriehq Yes! I’m trying to explore some complicated feelings by composing a short #jazz #BonkWave (or #NotBonkWave) piece. I have no experience composing, or writing jazz and feel very much a fraud for trying to do this. I can hear it in my mind, but the flow state of creativity has yet to happen. It may be that it is one of those moments where I have to “enjoy doing it badly” just to scratch the itch, call it done and try again later. We’ll see what results…

More #BitwigStudio #Reverb explorations. My All-Pass reverb was almost adequate, but not quite as smooth as I wanted. I found another YT channel where there were some nice examples of how to populate the Wet Tank with all sorts of other stock devices (or 3rd party) to achieve some truly spectacular results. #AS-Reverberator is getting an overhaul. What? I never posted about this when I first made it over a year ago? Whoops. In short, the Wet Tank is packed with goodies - EQ, Pitch Shift for Shimmer, Chorus and Blur and a delicate bit of gain stage for endlessssssssss reverbbbbbbb. Great for #Ambient #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave

Hello lovely people. Been a while since I posted on here but I was camping across Ontario and Manitoba. Access to mobile data and Internet was almost non-existent for the majority of the trip but back now. It may take me some time to catch up on the latest #BonkWave or #NotBonkWave and the newest releases via #FediArtists but looking forward to catching up with you all.
