Tries to write book. Reads book instead. Loves unusual and obscure music, test cricket, retreating into history. Not one to grouse.
#NowPlaying Like a funky daddy long legs. Techno jazz skittering. All knees.
#NowPlaying New Speaker Music is thunder and lightning. Playing this with an eye on the rain gods.
#NowPlaying Only recently discovered this (30 years after the fact) and it reminds me of Flying Saucer Attack's spacier moments. Which is one of the highest available compliments IMO. Probably up the street of @realm-of-dusk.bsky.social
#NowPlaying Demand to be Taken to Heaven Alive! Demand it! This is first rate new stuff from Horse Lords
A glass of wine and some soul-enveloping black metal. Someone on here recommended this and I can't remember who it was. But thank you. It's the horse's tits.
#NowPlaying A long and unsettling trip of the heedless mind through unending steel tubes IN HELL!!!
#NowPlaying Sometimes you spend ages tracking producers, players, session dates to find the gold. Other times you see a record called Out of One Man Comes Many Dubs, by The Ethnic Fight Band, and you just take that as its own guarantee
#NowPlaying Listening to Hildegard, contemplating monks
#NowPlaying Bit of a sucker for the old dulcimer, me... Such a gloriously versatile instrument
A masterclass in studio-as-instrument modernism IMO
#NowPlaying Bands I wish I'd heard when I was a nipper: an occasional series. If a record reminds me of both The Slits and In A Silent Way, it has the key to my heart.
#NowPlaying Drinks from the same well as classic electric Miles, with maybe a closer adhesion to the groove. Enlivening stuff.
