Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!
See this post on recs on how to post!
The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Where to find ren:
I remember people using new wave mostly when referring to the bands of the time that didn't fit into the standard genres. But, I was a kid and growing up way out in the middle of nowhere. Which means there was a lot I simply didn't know at the time. Now I am older, grayer, and still don't know much of anything.
Ah yes! โNew Waveโ! Good stuff. Mainstream definitely pulled from it after a few minor hits. Itโs definitely a grey definition, you can almost feel it when itโs not built for the Top 40, eh? Itโs like porn, โI donโt know how to define it but I know it when I see itโ lol
