Hi i’m Colin, i have had a lot of handles online, but my creative stuff is found under the name of Obigre online, or Caracol when i play music.
I play the diatonic accordion, i sing, and most imortantly, i tell stories 
I’ve joined the Mirlo project like a year ago and it’s been wonderful seeing this small internet thing steadily grow, much like a plant. I hope to find good inspiration in this forum and grow my understanding of both the music industry and how cooperation can be nurtured and highlighted !

I also am preparing to dip into this decentralized music distribution thing, as the corporate entities are getting shittier all the time, between the AI infatuation and the increasingly lower payouts.

Hi, so I’m Steven. I make stuff that lies somewhere between music and noise, depending upon your pov. Good noise or bad noise, you decide! 
Synths, electroacoustics, field recording, sound art. I’ve been doing that off-and-on for 40 years. Wow, I’m old now!
I have a technical background, and did systems administration, database programming, code repository management and the like for a long time, though I’ve been semi-retired from it for ten years. If you start talking about object-oriented programming, my eyes are gonna glaze over.
I’m in the midst of setting up a Faircamp site, and am also interested in exploring other Bandcamp alternatives. Capitalism = bad.
I’m very interested in encouraging and working within an equitable and collaborative environment which works at providing a living wage for artists. Thanks for reading!

Hey! Victor here. Musician and designer. I’ve been making various forms of electronic and experimental music since 2012 or something. My dayjob is graphic design within the music industry. So I have some insight into the “traditional” music industry. I think we can and should work towards a more sustainable and fair landscape for artists and fans alike.
You will probably see me posting from time to time in search of tips and feedback when it comes to self-releasing music in a way that feels inspiring and healthy.

Welcome, I think there are a few of us electronic musicians here on TSMN. Been releasing my music and noise since 2020.

Hi! Im Kiffie. I make electropop, electronica and emotional synthpop using a few synths, piano, guitar and drum machines.
I’ve released over 20 albums in a few years, and believe in improvement, trial and error and forming connections with people to collaborate and share ideas.
Been featured 3 times in Electronic Sound Magazine, and on BBC a few times.
My ambition is to make just one perfect song, I enjoy the impossible nature of this goal, something to strive for I guess.
Nice to meet you all.

@ryushin Welcome! Glad to have you here with us! I’m insanely late on the welcome, but life hasn’t been so forgiving on this side of the keyboard…haha. Nevertheless, please feel free to reach out of you have any questions or need a hand with anything. And hopefully we can learn just as much from you as you may from us!
My main questions here are about how the place works. How to post. If i can share links to my music or substack etc.
My music history is one of growth and deveopment. I’ll let you know when it’s the finished article (probably impossible).
We have a quick READ ME about music posting. We prioritize community and information sharing, but we also want people to be able to share their music journey.
Please take a look here and I’ll be happy to check in if you have additional questions.
