An ever-growing list of interesting blogs I follow. I love the idea of prioritizing curation and human
recommendation over the search engines and recommendation algorithms that are failing us, so here are some of my
favorites.

I also have a links page on my personal wiki, with links to various interesting resources
on digital signal processing (DSP), computer music, and the Web, among other cool things!
Here you’ll find musings on various topics that are important to me, including music teaching, disability justice, technology usage, and whatever else I’m reading or thinking about.
Ethan Hein is a music educator teaching music education, technology, theory, and songwriting at NYU and The New School. He writes about popular music studies, music education, music technology, creativity, and other related topics on his blog.
Heather Roche is a clarinettist who shares extensive resources for composers and performers on contemporary clarinet techniques. I regularly consult her site when composing for the clarinet.
Kristoffer Lislegaard is a Norwegian experimental ambient musician and producer based in Oslo. Since 2010, he has created, performed and released music as a solo artist as well as in various duo and ensemble formats, combining genres such as ambient, noise, post-rock, club music and more. He has also composed and sound designed contemporary dance, theatre, film, art installations, poetry and performance art.
Meljoann is a multidisciplinary artist from Ireland. They describe their music as “hyperjack”—i.e., a hyperpop-flavored take on 90s new jack swing—and as “mutant R&B.” She is an active member of the independent music community on the Fediverse, and the Spirit of Gravity musical collective.
I started this as an outlet to write about music technology, where my main interests concern tools for creating experimental and left-field electronic music (particularly computer music, glitch, noise, and IDM). With my writing, I’m interested in bridging the worlds of music tech journalism with in-depth academic papers to create resources for technically proficient musicians.
Since 2012, A Closer Listen has claimed a specialized niche in the music industry: instrumental album reviews! By concentrating on this above all else, we’ve built a healthy fanbase and a strong reputation. If music is recorded and nobody listens, does it still make a sound?
A blog that covers "independent experimental, ambient, noise, and other music that falls well outside the mainstream." I haven't been able to find out as much as some of the others, but the Instagram page lists just one person, a Lars Haur, so this may be a single-person project.
Igloo Magazine is an electronic music e’zine publishing articles about current, classic and upcoming music from around the globe. Our mission is to introduce readers to the burgeoning undergrowth of electronic musicians by covering a wide range of genres including ambient, experimental, dub, glitch, shoegaze, electro, techno, drone, IDM, industrial, post-industrial, and all the debris in between.
Welcome to Noise Not Music. Here you’ll find reviews of recent albums, various features and lists, and occasional mixes. I do not agree with the statement I’ve chosen as the title for this site (which has been around much longer than me). Everything I write about here—a great deal of which is called “noise”—is music.
We scour the internet for its best kept sonic secrets and deliver them to you daily. Reviews of new underground albums hit our social outlets and blog every day. We also put in our two cents on select major releases that we consider relevant to the world of DIY music.
Robin James is a writer, editor, and former associate professor of philosophy at UNC Charlotte. […] She’s an expert in feminism/gender/race and popular music, pop music and politics, sound studies, electronic dance music studies, and contemporary continental philosophy (especially critical theories of neoliberalism and biopolitics).
“Other Networks” is a cluster of projects headed up by Dr. Lori Emerson and Dr. libi striegl that document and experiment with networks outside of what’s now called “the internet.” We are invested in digging up alternative and forgotten networks so that we can reimagine the future of the internet as the future of networks.
Sounding Out! is a bi-weekly online publication, a networked academic archive, and a dynamic group platform bringing together sound studies scholars, sound artists and professionals, and readers interested in the cultural politics of sound and listening. Every Monday, our writers offer well-researched, well-written, and accessible interventions in sound studies, directing the field’s energy toward the social, cultural, and political aspects of sound and listening, particularly their differential construction of and material impacts on variously positioned bodies.

Hi. I’m Joe. This is my personal website. It’s got lots of stuff! I’ve written code for a living for a while. ArtLung.com itself runs on WordPress and it looks and works the way it does because I programmed the theme and underlying code.
Elena Rossini describes herself as a film director, photographer, and FOSS advocate. On this blog, she writes about her experience using and self-hosting a variety of Fediverse platforms, and advocates for the Fediverse as a more ethical way forward for social media.
Hello! Привіт! I'm James (/d͡ʒeɪmz/) (also capjamesg). My pronouns are he/him/his. I live in Scotland. This is my blog. I hope this website can bring a little bit of joy into your day.
Hello, my name is Johanna, but online I am called Jo, and this is my website!! I've been putting out internet sites from this address since March 2022, so I haven't been "self"-hosting† for long.
I'm an environmental computer scientist. I write about nature, epistemology, spirituality, and how they pertain to computer things. I've been maintaining this website for as long as I can remember. Here, you can find my art, writing and software.

Yeah, well, I’m going to go build my own site. With Emacs! And Nix! In fact, forget the site. This is my personal brand, my love letter to the Indieweb, my finely manicured digital garden, my faffing about as I rediscover the joy of computing. Perpetually under construction.
Welcome to Shellsharks - a blog, an IndieWeb site, a community, and a central point-of-presence for myself on the web. What I publish here is a reference for myself but is available to be consumed by all. I write about all things Infosec, Technology and Life in general.
I particularly like Shellsharks' weekly "Scrolls" newsletter that pulls together interesting writing and activity from around the IndieWeb, Fediverse, and cybersecurity communities.
I’m a sci-fi writer, graphic designer and urbanist in the Seattle suburbs. Reading and blogging are my favorite pasttimes and I’m an advocate of the indie web. I’m curious about everything from technology to history to ecology. I use this website to: track what I read and watch, write commentary on things that interest me, and save reference information.
