Difficult Art And Music@difficultart.bsky.social · 2mo agoYou're not supposed to admit you're struggling. But we r - and I know for a fact we're not alone. The grassroots is dying - it needs U to keep it alive. Buy something from a small label/press. Tell ppl about it who don't often support such things. Explain to them why it's so important. PLS SHARE.

Five days since I had (minor) eye surgery and had 2 days where I could barely open eyes at all. Obviously only a tiny insight into having a different sensory array but I did notice how much more I was hearing, which given I live in a v noisy area was not a good thing. ‘Hear less ears’ I now intone.
I make music. I want to continue this thing i've been doing for 2 decades profesionally. Here's my bandcamp siavashamini.bandcamp.com Here's my patreon www.patreon.com/cw/u49359212 Much love🖤
