Do you know "Bandcamp Friday"? On the first friday of the month intermittently (closest thing to a schedule is this website) Bandcamp does an event where their "cut" of music sales goes to 0%. All money goes to the artist (except the cut for the the credit card company) (and except the cut for the label) (except also some labels, like Sargent House, set their cut to 0% on Bandcamp Fridays also?).
Whatever, TLDR buy music on Bandcamp Friday, the artist gets more money. I like this so I spent three years making a thread of Bandcamp music recommendations on a now-dead website, and now I'm moving it here. It is long.

Despite earlier worries, the new owners of Bandcamp— though they HAVE fired the entire employee union bargaining unit— are still, for now, holding Bandcamp Friday.
This is great because it means if you do it TODAY, you can buy music without supporting the union busters. Expand the post above for a list of 100+ Bandcamp album recommendations I've been writing since 2020.
