We've helped empower, amplify and motivate the music community within the Fediverse by celebrating artist consent and agency, direct support, and promoting quality sounds.
If you've participated along the way, you can be proud of the gauntlet we've thrown down for community and vibes and the discovery, collaboration and support fomented.
We'll accept music submissions until mid-Dec and the station will power down in Jan 2025.

We often see folk new to fedi or otherwise saying something like, "I'm all good for doom and sh*t posts, now where is the music and independent artists?!"
Well fedi, we got you. You have all been amazing supporting one another let's keep the awesome connections forming.
Sure you can listen to the stream and discover, sure you can follow us here for various highlights, sure we have the running contributor list on the website with public fedi links for nearly every contributor, and now...
Here is every artist and contributor on #radioFreeFedi at the moment in a masto import friendly csv and when we will update at weekly new track/artist count posts.
The file has flag for boosts off, we've filtered doubles for multi project artists, and we reckon you could import the lot and have fun discovering and interacting with amazing artists and pare down or change specific settings at your leisure.
have fun! kick ass and/or stay comfy.
support fedi artists!

I love Radio Free Fedi and listen to it quite a bit because of the variety of music. I have discovered several artists that I enjoy that I probably would not have stumbled across otherwise.
You all are doing the music scene a lot of good. Keep up the awesome work!
I love the idea of a radio station fueled by folks in the fediverse. Definitely will spend some time tuned and check it out. (Will definitely think about submitting some tunes when the new album comes out too... 🤔)

We have pre-seeded the station for soft launch. Please see the site for all artist info and station info.
If we have missed or mistaken any data in our initial seeding of the station please reach out.
Likewise, we are hoping to promote artists with a fedi presence that are good fedizens, if we are promoting anyone with any untoward fediquette we have missed as it is hard to deep screen web presence, also please reach out.
Get involved, tell your noise making friends, have a listen, have fun.
lots of comments on the community, underground, college grassroots radio vibe and we love that. Lets normalise promoting fedi artists AND respecting consent and agency.
The vibe is all of us coming together to respect diversity in sound, genre, licensing and showing fedizens can rock the party
