Vinyl buying gig-goer and covers-band drummer. I'm waiting to look through that box of records so hurry up, if you wouldn't mind.
Some random CD #weekendsingles

The CD singles have a very different feel to the vinyl singles, as they're pretty much all what I was listening to and buying (or grabbing from the pile of promos at work) *at the time* rather than stuff I might have bought since.

Looking forward to this year's @vinylsanta.bsky.social I've had some absolute beauties in the past few years.
Really hoping I'm on the good list again this year. Last year's @vinylsanta.bsky.social haul was amazing.

A lot of the records are still out of reach, but here are a few random 7" #weekendsingles that I could grab.

I really didn't get Hail to the Thief at the time but I returned to it earlier this year and I think it's a great album now. It came out at a time when I didn't give albums I wasn't struck by immediately much time. These live versions are also fantastic.

Very much looking forward to this @moolakiiclubai.bsky.social evening of silent films soundtracked by some lovely live electronic music in Birkenhead. I've been to a couple of these before. Highly recommended.

A decent 10k run this morning, with this as the soundtrack.

The wife and the girls went for their haircut which meant that I was at a loose end near some charity shops. Found this. Quite a bit of Georgio Moroder on this, which is never a bad thing.

That sticker's not coming off though. Not without half of the cover coming with it.

I still have limited access to the records due to some building work so here are a few random 12" #weekendsingles from the ones I can reach.

With the exception of the 4 tracks on a couple of very limited 7"s, I think I might have the whole of the @warringtonruncorn.com catalogue on physical. I think. Unless I've missed something. Which I probably have.

Really liking those two latest CDs.

I used to love any Simon Harris stuff and, to this day, will still pick something up if it has his name on it. I recently found a tape I'd done from the late 80s with him being interviewed by Carl Kingston on Radio Aire about his new album, Bass. Was great to hear that again.
some fun facts about this record. produced by Simon Harris, a lynchpin of the early british hip hop scene & was an yo-yo champion. he tried a similar thing in later years when Street Fighter 2 got popular. he did a whole album based on super mario called Compact disco which was released in Japan

I spent 3 years making field recordings in desolate churches when we 1st moved to Norfolk, a process through which I realised that “mindfulness can come through sound recording - through listening rather than the breath”.

Is having Gary Numan's name put on the back of your car a thing these days?

Look what arrived from the @castlesinspace.bsky.social sub club this week. Absolutely delighted with this delivery.

Went to see Lord Finesse in Manchester last night. He was done by 10pm. That's my kind of weeknight gig.

@thebeths.bsky.social were absolutely magnificent at Albert Hall in Manchester last night
September 21, 2025 at 7:29 AM
I meant to come back and say what a magnificent piece of work this is. It's been keeping me sane at work for the last week or so.
Very much looking forward to giving this new @audioobscura.bsky.social tape its first listen tonight
