On this day in 1871, French troops sided with the people that they were sent to repress against the generals and the oligarchs who sought to dominate them. This set off a revolutionary chain reaction that changed the course of history.

Our luxuriously bearded keyboard whizz Gareth S. Brown has the first album under his Death-Static moniker released today. Truly gorgeous ambience.
My new miserable ambient album (the first under the name Death-Static and first solo release since 2020) has been released today by sound in silence. You can buy download or hard copies here: soundinsilencerecords.bandcamp.com/album/time-i...

A great evening out with the MayDay Rooms crew for the launch party of Mick Jone’s pop culture archive - yes that Mick Jones. A good turn out from the west London punky/reggae milieu (and their kids) with excellent sets by Dennis Bovell and Tessa Pollitt. We danced our fucking socks off

The 1975 track ‘La mela di Odessa (1920)’ by the Italian prog-rock act Area is loosely inspired by Jan Appel’s hijacking of a boat in order to reach Soviet Russia to attend the 3rd World Congress of the Communist International
