This is the last installment of Acid Test. Between here and FACT, I'm thankful to spend 10 years digging up hidden gems on Bandcamp every month. Thanks for reading, but more importantly, thanks for listening & supporting the many artists appearing in this column over the years❤️
@BongosUnlimited Nothing’s really changed, I’m still a freelancer. Bandcamp just isn’t renewing the column.
Also, I’m always hoping you guys have a new album on the way 🤞👀

I wrote about some recent favorites for @Bandcamp including the dreamy Hit 'Em comp, aleatoric music DnD-style & Gavin Vanaelst's deeply moving Takeaway Loops, a record mostly made in fast-food chains while waiting to deliver orders. Thanks for reading 💖 https://t.co/ae4zpm5e2Z

I wrote about some September releases for Bandcamp including the late Marcus Fjellström's stunning final album sourced from sessions of his posthumous score to The Terror (which is thankfully streaming again and a perfect October watch). https://t.co/hxuD87xZPQ
@maxevry After finally watching Spookies last night, I spent most of the morning trying to track this piece down, thank you so much for archiving it 🙏 And truly the best possible news to find with it!

The great @MilesBowe wrote beautifully about @SunkenHum's new album in his Acid Test column on @Bandcamp.
"You’re left thinking of these ruins and ruined forests, the birds and people that filled them with life, and the silence they leave behind."
