I first heard @anabstractillusion.bsky.social's album 'Woe' a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely floored. When I heard that they were releasing a new album imminently I was wondering how on earth could they follow up such a heavy hitter. The answer was apparently 'The Sleeping City' because WOW!

I have a weird relationship with Death Metal, because while Im not terribly fond of the genre, but when a band is firing on all cylinders some of the most stunning music comes out of it. An Abstract Illusion's "Woe" is a breathtaking album, their new album releases next month and I'm hyped for it.

I've heard about all the issues, will be investigating but I can finally close this chapter. Amongst the negativity I do want to shout out the all individuals who contributed to this project, and to those who helped drag this across the finish line.

From time to time I am reminded how how incredibly fortunate I was to have been able to see The Contortionist's "Language" performed in its entirety, such a special record.

The new Sonic & Chill from @petefrogs.bsky.social is fantastic, while the first S&C is very good I've always been a house guy, so this album hits all the right spots. Definitely going to spin a few cuts on this month's The Bonus Stages. vgm.fm/sonicchill2
Sonic & Chill 2
The Sonic & Chill legacy continues in a synth-driven house tribute from Pete Frogs! Featuring 10 tunes from the blue hedgehog’s Genesis era.

In my lifetime they have never created anything. They are not capable of creating anything now, and at no point in the future will they have the ability create anything. They carry only the capacity to injure, harm, and destroy.

Unrelated, I see that it's that time again to publically shame @crunchyroll.com again for their embarrassing and eternally frustrating handling of the Dirt Pair Kickstarter.

How this company was able to became the defacto industry leader is beyond comprehension.

Better late than never, Episode 14 of The Bonus Stages is up! Long story short, I lost the live recording of the episode so I had to stitch it back together, I also forewent re-recording voiceovers so check the link for the setlist, but on the plus side the episode is nice and tidy!
