I love the weird chaotic energy of Tangerine Dream's early material - Alpha Centauri sounds like cosmic ritual music for alien encounters. 👽

Legend has it there's a Phirnis tape with a hidden shoegaze karaoke cover of this German country song on it - the title translates to "Hey boss, I need more money".

I've got around 50 half-hour improv sessions recorded with my trio band (electronics, guitar, drums). We never release anything, but if we ever do, it'll be a massive box set - no edits, no band name, just the whole mess in one place.

I had a dream last night where I attended a workshop by the guy from Whitehouse. He said he was going to show us "something really exciting" - and then handed out cooked potatoes. Someone asked if he was trying to say that meaning is something we actively create and he replied: "It is what it is." 🙏

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."
![Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake:
“They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ks3gpa6ftoyaq7hmf6c4qx4c/bafkreickzwdynkak7r4lur6afktglm3gontqsq5r5c7jeewyecyd4dczla@jpeg)
