Jackson is the man!
Out today on Otoroku, a vital, discombobulating set from London-based, Scottish artist, Jackson Burton! www.cafeoto.co.uk/shop/jackson-burton-8525 A heady, compellingly disorientating mix of live-performance, pre-recorded elements and spoken word to create a potent atmosphere all its own.

Been absolutely rinsing this one from a few years back by Klein. Very few artists sounding this 'experimental' these days.

I've spent 12 years going to @cafeotodalston.bsky.social. To say that it has changed my life would be an understatement. It is rare that a few weeks go by without having my mind blown there.
The thought of it not being here is too much to even imagine. Support it if you can!

Kieran Daly at @cafeotodalston.bsky.social last night was the best thing I've seen in years (rest of the line up was banging too). Rare to see something so committed (and so funny). A lesson that there is still road to travel in experimental music.

Show of the year coming up and it's only March!
Super happy to be performing on the same bill as Kieran Daly and Ash Reid at @cafeotodalston.bsky.social this coming Sunday! I’ll be playing a section of Automatic Love (released by Infant Tree around this time last year) with my friend Rory Salter on the floor tom.

Ahead of the release of a documentary film, JR Moores laments Fugazi’s absence yet remains wary of a comeback, offering some “stupid fucking words” on the band that never ceased getting better until they stopped altogether
