What you doing this weekend?

Why not come to Whitby and enjoy a weekend of knob twiddling electronic jiggery pokery?

I’ll be doing a spot of DJ’ing (expect weirdness) and our very own @12hrfoundation.bsky.social will be playing live too - among countless other amazing artists!

Ron Geesin is the OG surrealist and we love working with him. An absolute joy! 🙏 ❤️
Perhaps the happiest discovery I made while researching this, though, was that Mr G is represented on here – @rongeesin.bsky.social – and is still actively creative at the age of 81, not least on this splendidly bizarre podcast
Brand new episode of ‘Listen Through the Brown Window’ is OUT NOW!

STIG!!

HALIBUT!!

This delightful EP has been on heavy rotation in my office (aka spare bedroom) over the past week... perfect antidote to the drudgery of repetitive work:

Huge thanks to @bobfischer.bsky.social and all at @mulgraveaudio.bsky.social for the #Patchwuff album and postcard. We were thrilled have played a tiny part in the project, which features both Sandra Kerr (of Bagpuss fame) and Valerie Singleton. Check out all releases:

Great to see Patchwuff hit the shelves. Narrated by Valerie Singleton, with music courtesy Sandra Kerr (aka Madeleine the Rag Doll), it's a heartwarming/breaking tale written by @andrewtsmith.bsky.social. Not to be missed!
Patchwuff vinyl is finally here! Thankyou so much to everyone for being so patient... we've got a busy couple of days packing ahead, and we'll start shipping them out ASAP after the weekend. Phew, etc.

When we needed spoof 1970s Open University music for our drama 'Simon Perkins' Lurgy', there was really nobody to ask but @12hrfoundation.bsky.social. Jez and Polly did a wonderful job, and we released all their themes as a special download-only EP...
