One of the requests that has come up is around the volume of spam posts. These tend to come from artists making self-promotion posts in several subs. All for creativity and sharing your work, but it's easy to see that this can get out of hand. With so little moderation for so long, one can argue it already has.
First, a question: what does the community think constitutes spam? Posting in three subs or more within an hour or so? More? Less? We all appreciate experimental music crosses many genres, so sharing elsewhere may be natural, but it's helpful to get a sense of what the community feels goes too far.
Also, if you see something that looks to you like spam, please hit the flag and report it. Right now, if it looks like spam, it's getting removed and the poster gets a 14-30-day ban, depending on volume and frequency. But your help catching it and opinions on how this is handled are valued.
The rules have been updated around self promo/spam. If something needs to be added, please say. Thank you!
I sort of fell away from him for a few years but I'm liking the recent solo album.

I made a new subreddit called because there hasn't been one created yet and I believe the experimental and noise scenes and communities of Texas would benefit if we had our own online community to share our music, record labels, local shows, compilations, and collabs/splits. This subreddit would help small and big artists in Texas find their fellow local musicians and build a greater community throughout Texas. So, if you're interested in or produce experimental and noise and live in Texas or frequently visit for tours, live shows, and what not, please join this subreddit, because the noise and experimental communities and musicians throughout Texas would benefit greatly if they had a community to share their art and communicate ideas and suggestions with. Lastly, Thanks to all of you who do join , it means a lot to noise and experimental fans and artists looking for someone nearby to enjoy and share their music with.
