Duke Ellington & John Coltrane ‘In a Sentimental Mood’
Ellington’s piano sets a calm, elegant foundation while Coltrane responds with lyrical, measured lines. It’s unhurried, intimate jazz, two masters meeting in perfect balance. 🎷 🎹

Loscil ‘Clara’

A hauntingly beautiful haze of light and shadow, orchestral strings shredded then alchemised into drifting, immersive soundscapes that feel vast yet intimate. At once luminous and spectral.

Folk queuing to give gifts to royals is mental. The monarchist system demands blind acceptance of an obscene lie that some humans are born better than others for no reason beyond ancestry. Absolutely fckn absurd.

Tangerine Dream 'Stratosfear

Motorik pulse meets glacial synths with sequencers & widescreen melodies. Timeless, influential & hypnotic. You can hear why DJ Shadow mined this era, these textures are built for sampling, atmosphere doing all the talking.

Loscil’s Monument Builders feels like walking through a fog soaked, abandoned city at dawn, crumbling drones, ghostly horns & faint melodies that linger long after the sound fades. Quietly devastating. #NowPlaying #ElectronicMusic🎧

Hearts are a big 6/4 tomorrow 😮Edinburgh’s “establishment” club all Union Jacks, stiff upper lips & the charisma of a parking fine. Hibs the Scots/Irish outsiders, which explains why they’ve got the songs, the humour & the soul.
Can never bet against the Hibees.

I never really have the TV on in the house, but when I do I make it worthwhile.

Ready to settle down to some amazing cinematography on the 4K version of Rango. The genius that is Roger Deakins served as both the cinematographer and visual consultant on this. 🎦🎬🍿 #NowWatching

Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers’ Moanin’ hard bop at its most alive. Lee Morgan’s punch, Benny Golson’s gospel soaked title track, & Blakey’s epic drums turn blues, swing, & soul into pure fire. Timeless, joyful, and unstoppable. This has an incredible Atmos mix on Apple. #Vinyl #JazzSky #NP

Scary Monsters feels like a cracked mirror held up to modern life, elegant, nervous, laughing at the edge. Bowie sings like a man both haunted & amused by the future. Robert Fripp’s guitar is pure brilliance, sharp, spectral lines that cut through the air.

An underrated gem. There is no bad Rabin era Yes.
Guitar tone on 'Holy Lamb' is superb, it sounds like a Flying V... Without an amp. #NowPlaying #VinylRecords #MusicSky
