It's time to bring some more visibility to alternative music on Hive, and what a better place to find it than the Vibes competition?
So I decided to scroll through all the entries of this week, looking for the dark side of the m... - I mean - of the Vibes ⛓
Well, among all the lovely poppy radio songs and the usual tide of Christian songs about Jesus and the Lord, I manage to find some black pearls. Turn off the lights, because we love our music like our coffee... darker ☠️

Guys, I've appreciated your attempt to play a song that's hard to be heard covered, good job! You have some work to do and there's a lot of space for improvements but you just keep going and your effort here will be rewarded 💪https://peakd.com/hive-140169/@gabrielinhomusic/lycukgpi

Not an easy song to sing for sure! But hey, he doesn't give a fuck 😏 and also adds the riff with the keyboard! Greathttps://peakd.com/hive-140169/@david.dicotomia/jezjitzw

Holy crap! I'm so happy to see some serious guitar work here on Hive finally! We're in good company, could be the right time to create a guitar community soon?https://peakd.com/hive-140169/@joanm897/qesqxfjq
I can't really end the post without sharing my own entry, in case you haven't seen it
Feed the riot is one of my original songs that you can find in my album Blinded in chains. This is an alternative version available only in the deluxe edition. If you'd like to support my work, you can buy my album as a music NFT for 40 Hive on NFT Showroom (links at the end). I want to be generous: if you buy it now, just comment here so we can get in touch and I'll send you all the alternative versions of the songs that are in the deluxe edition 🙌

Well, end of the line. I hope you appreciated this alt side of the Vibes. This is not to add more competition, it's a celebration. For us all. Let's be proud together of what we're doing, knowing that probably is going to get less attention than the other entries out there...
Every performer mentioned here got a 2 Hive tip from me and is getting 10% of this post payout. So vote strong, comment and share, thanks 😁
Also this will easily become a curated collection of posts in the future, a way to gather all the alternative music performances from the Vibes competition.Since it's a tough work scrolling through all the Vibes feed to find out these pearls, I invite you to add the tag #altvibes to your next entry if you think it could fit into this format. It will be easier for me to find you.
If you're curious about who I am and what I do you can visit my website harbiter.com or my Instagram.

It is an honor to appear here once again! Thank you for highlighting these great presentations and for the support!
Bravo,your selection of the best of week 30 is magnificent.
Thanks :) it's a hard work but someone has to do it
Oh, yes.
I will also be sharing my top five. Since I entered the competition, in addition to singing, reflecting and praising those who deserve the greatest applause.And I will do that in a few hours.
We have coincidence of criteria and that is also amazing.Thanks for sharing, after reading you I think that my aesthetic musical sense is very oriented.
Are you able to add HIVE to your list of socials?
