My witchy rock song has had a makeover for Halloween 🧙♀️ Under the alternative title 'Hail the Witch', it's been remixed and mastered by Marc Jackson @syncmusiclab.bsky.social. The quieter B side is new track 'Strings'.

I originally approached @flamingjangle.bsky.social to help me with 'one acoustic song'. I was so happy with the result, I kept throwing more at him until it was a little 25-minute album. I'm letting him rest now, but if you need some help with your new project, I highly recommend.
I had the pleasure of mixing & mastering this new album from @neverthebridle.bsky.social It's out in a few weeks and guaranteed to curl your hair, make your eyes widen in delight and generally change your life. Keep those ears peeled!
I have a new album on the way 👀
It's called Feebling and it's me without the full band sound. I borrowed a flute and a bag of percussion from my neighbours and went full DIY.
Mixed and mastered by @flamingjangle.bsky.social + out in a couple of weeks.
Do bear with my kitsch videos in the runup...

This was recorded 20 years ago and released in 2006 and I keep having this vainglorious notiin of other artists covering the songs.
So I’m going to set my brain to cringe and put it out there.
If it drops like shite from a donkeys arse so be it.

Finally gave Solace my full attention. I was walking around going I'll write that lyric down for Bluesky, then actually I need to write that one down, then in the end all the lyrics were just so on it, I realised my favourite bits wouldn't fit in a post or even five. Ace job @bofbriz.bsky.social
I’m really proud to say that my new EP, ‘Solace’ is out now!

(or wherever you get music!)
I’ve been trying to offer a Summer of ‘Solace’, releasing songs from this EP….
A sweet, earnest, small offering of alt hip hop from Bristol.

New dentist yesterday. I wondered if she had read the note I requested to be added to my file: Don't ask me about teeth straightening, I can't afford it. All she said was "You have a very interesting bite". Proud of her 😊

The most fascinating thing is how differently people hear music, either because of their actual hearing, their sound system or their taste. I've had two people feeding back on the same track saying "the guitars are too dominant" and "the guitars are too quiet".
Submitting music to people like Groover and SubmitHub can feel brutal. But I'm kind of into what it teaches me about ways to take feedback. It's not something I think I'll spend much cash on, but it's been interesting hearing different perspectives, and always nice to get the odd playlisting.

In trying to thin down my slightly chaotic work space, I have rediscovered 4 (I think) A3 Forton prints. I was selling them for £30 before. If I sourced some poster tubes and work out posting is there any interest, or should I keep them for our next pop up shop.

In '99 I had a part-time job in a vintage shop in Leeds. I got these 70s boots, which have always been too small for me, but I thought they were so funny I had to have them. I would break a leg if I wore these now, so time to say goodbye. Basically, do you want them?
