Stranger Things... Its bloody fantastic isn't it. A ray of light in these turbulent times. It'll be a sad day in our house as we watch the final credits roll. Until then bring on the Boxing Day episodes 🙏x

Soundtracking the morning with another contender for #5debutalbums7074.

Such an incredible voice. This would be a worthy contender for the magnificent 'Les Fleur' alone, but as an album its so much more than that.

Tonight's whisky pairing...

Raw, visceral and filled with so many markers to where she was headed sonically. Hugely underrated on release imho. As essential as anything she's released to my ears x

Listening to music like this makes me regret calling time on my Electronic Odyssey show.

Made after his father's passing, it's such a warm, beautiful collection of minimal techno. A wonderful tribute x

A Requiem is about farewells but also very much about discovering your power in acknowledging the shadow side of life. To those who i’ve met at shows, I am eternally grateful for your words about the effect that my show has had.

Having watched David Olusoga's 'Empire' I found it exceptional. Unsuprisingly the right wing media disagree. That said, if they were willing to commission him maybe he'd uncover a time, many decades ago, when the ToryGraph was a serious newspaper...
