Holiday read sorted. 🏖️ Thanks for writing it, @msmirandasawyer.bsky.social. I know a bit about Britpop but not loads so I’m looking forward to discovering more.

Josh Kiszka’s – the singer from Greta Van Fleet – vocals are insane. He’s too good!

💿 Sometimes it’s easy to forget an album or miss it the first time round. “Monsters Exist” by Orbital. Unsure why I dismissed it a while back. It’s great. Very much enjoying the grandiose sound of “Vision OnE”. open.qobuz.com/album/xp44rh...

20/06/26, IKLECTIK. @loulayorke.bsky.social synth wizardry in action. My mind was blown how all the tech worked and the sounds it produced. It was an excellent set. Thanks, Loula.

@sulkrooms.bsky.social delivering mesmerising tunes at IKLECTIK. Love the use of guitar on this one.

@sulkrooms.bsky.social absolutely going for it. Was a phenomenal set at IKLECTIK.

Think I should’ve just gone with “Corn on the rob”. Or found a better pun. 🫠

A smartphone screenshot showing an email from Amazon.co.uk confirming that a product review is live.
The email is addressed to Simon Tomes and confirms a 2 out of 5-star review for an "8 Pcs Corn Forks Corn Holder" set. The review is titled "Corn on the rob of quality" and notes that "several of the spikes have fallen off" after a year of use. A product image shows four pairs of interlocking, colorful plastic corn holders in orange, green, blue, and yellow.

Very much on loop and enjoying Editors’ latest single, Call It In. Super catchy guitar part, catchy vocal melody and catchy drum pattern. Sounds less “produced” than their previous albums. Looking forward to their new album if this is the direction they’re going in. open.qobuz.com/track/406236...

Must've been cool for Nathan East and John Robinson to play on this and then play together many many years later with Daft Punk. I guess they've played on many albums together. open.qobuz.com/track/19102386
