Day 10
Future Children, ‘A Disorganized Body’ (2025)
Soundtrack by US duo to a short film about the strange case of a 19th century Frenchwoman who claimed to be only skin & bones. The music varies wildly in style, from lyrical pop to ghostly synth jams overlaid with operatic female voice.

Andrew Spackman, ‘Milton Keynes Shopping Trip’ (2024)
Excoriating noise featuring saxophone, keys and beats (by turn, skittish and thunderous), maybe some guitar too? Rings the changes with these different elements in a very satisfying way. Not an easy listen but worth the effort.

Right, it's Sunday afternoon and therefore time for me to be completely hypocritical again and count down a UK Top 40 singles chart from a year past. This week we're going back 34 years to the chart week ending 9 November 1991. Hold onto that washing machine!
