Next in my series on inspiring figures in electronic music, this time featuring musician, software developer, engineer and audiovisual artist @roberthenke.bsky.social, in the latest issue of Sound on Sound magazine

I bought this single in 1984 and not until today did I discover that some rare copies have writing by the band inside the sleeve when they were apparently bored at the @creationrecords.bsky.social office, and I opened up mine to find this note from William of the band @themarychain.bsky.social

Listen to EarSpace ep.38 on @totallyradio.bsky.social @slackcityradio.bsky.social with Ital Tek, Amon Tobin, Blue Hour, Charles A.D., Ran Slavin, Anthony Rother, Cinna Peyghamy, Max Cooper, Beatriz Ferreyra, AM/PM, Anastasia Kristensen, SND and more! www.totallyradio.com/shows/earspa...

Lovely to chat with the GForce team about using their new soft synth, and the EP I made in a day, The Prophet, which is available to everyone for FREE. www.gforcesoftware.com/blog/an-inte...

Last reminder for 'Allen Ginsberg at 100' tomorrow at @southbankcentre where I will be premiering a new live performance with live film projections in celebration, alongside many other amazing artists www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/all...

For the truly committed industrial fan, recreations of Laurence Dupré’s Avant Guerre camouflage for Throbbing Gristle, including a Heathen Earth Pashmina. www.timeless-shop.com/product/thro...

Incredible new release on @coldspringrecords.bsky.social - a 5 CD boxset of scores to the films of Tarkovsky, with works by Eduard Artemyev and Vyacheslav Ovchinnikov coldspring.bandcamp.com/album/tarkov...

Loving these photos of Sheffield’s music scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s by Pete Hill, with Cabaret Voltaire, Clock DVA, The Human League, Artery and many more britishculturearchive.co.uk/sheffield-mu...

Time for some imaginary weekend reading 😃

A wonderful free download of Kees Tazelaar's book on the evolution of electronic music in the Netherlands from 1925 to 1965. It's a wonderfully inspiring read, and heavily illustrated. Treat yourself! www.v2.nl/publications...

Canterbury 2027 is the place to be for an extraordinary festival that I'm honoured to take part in with my modern beat combo Githead, returning to the stage in many years, alongside so many friends!

A beautiful place to experience at Kew Gardens, with an inspiring selection of Henry Moore sculptures on display

A little gem in my collection - Brian Eno's Glint (1986) which came as a flexi disc in ARTFORUM Magazine, and was later renamed Lanzarote for his album The Shutov Assembly (1992)

Excited to be part of Allen Ginsberg at 100 for Poetry International Festival at the South Bank Centre this July, celebrating the life and work of the American bard.✍️ Tickets are on sale now! With Thurston Moore, James Lavelle, Youth, and more! www.southbankcentre.co.uk/whats-on/all...

For me, two of the most dynamic 7" singles ever released, both in 1979, by Bristol's very own The Pop Group, who detonated the boundaries between punk, funk, dub, free jazz and political dissent. And still sounding amazing 47 years later!! 🔥

Ah, the things you find in a drawer at home. A Gescom related cassette, and the first ever µ-Ziq live show in London that I recorded at the time @mikeparadinas.bsky.social

Now, this was £7.00 well spent, almost 30 years ago! I still remember people holding the speakers whilst Panasonic played as the frequencies were just so physical, and how many people left to smoke outside when Boards of Canada performed.

An essential free download - Studio International: Art & Experimental Music (1976), with Michael Nyman, Cornelius Cardew, Gavin Bryars, Brian Eno, David Toop, Steve Reich and Morton Feldman. Amazing!! monoskop.org/log/?p=20530

EarSpace Ep.27 ready for your pleasure at @totallyradio.bsky.social @slackcityradio.bsky.social with Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Clark, Kreidler, Yu Su, Kraftwerk, Cabaret Voltaire, Geins't Naït & Lø, Christina Kubisch and much more! www.totallyradio.com/shows/earspa...

An update for @bandcamp.com posting items to the EU. For the moment it seems that Bandcamp at least will be collecting these feels on our behalf

This will be special - celebrating the work of American writer William S Burroughs at the Horse Hospital in London. I'll be presenting new work, alongside Adi Newton's The Anti Group (with contributions from Mal of Cabaret Voltaire) and many more. Very limited tickets. ebsn.eu/special-even...

Farewell to the artist David Hockney, who has passed away at the age of 88. From the sun-drenched swimming pools of California to his vibrant landscapes of Yorkshire, his work radiated a joyful embrace of colour, curiosity, and a deep love of the everyday.

Super excited to share these sounds with the world, out on 4th September. A new album, 'Juxtapositions,' with @ianboddy.bsky.social out on a limited edition Digipak CD on DiN. Order information to follow soon ☺️

Terribly sad to read of the passing of Mickey Mann, music producer and engineer, who connected the dots between The Shamen, Aphex Twin, Orbital, Ramjac, Moby, Irresistible Force and many more. I was honoured to work with his band Pressure of Speech too.

Excited to perform the work of Pauline Oliveros and Stockhausen tonight in Prague. Come along and embrace the universe, sonically at least. www.klangsystematiek.com/10june2026/

A wonderful glimpse into a moment when the future was still being invented. Every name on the bill tells a story, and together they capture a remarkable chapter in live music history. 1978 was a blast!

Wow, now this a gem - a live performance of Glenn Branca's incredibly rare Symphony No. 4 at the Holland Festival in 1983. You might need to use a VPN to view it but it's worth it, believe me! schatkamer.beeldengeluid.nl/serie/210180...

Well, this made me smile

I love the optimism of the NHS in their appointment system 😁

Delighted to have the first in my series of features about fellow artists in the latest issue of Sound on Sound magazine June edition. This first piece focuses on the work of my old sonic pal, Carsten Nicolai, aka Alva Noto and his working methods.
