A sport where you cross-country ski around a circuit with a saxophone strapped on your back and at the end of each lap you have to skronk out a cool free-form solo before you can continue skiing.

A Sam Mendes biopic project about The Polyphonic Spree where each of the 20 films tells the story of the group from the perspective of a different band member.

By not engaging with “Bawitdaba”, the left risks ceding ground in the critical debate surrounding the music of Kid Rock to the right.

If humans don’t widely accept AI, it will instead be taken up by hornets, who will use the technology to develop frightening new ways to sting us, an outcome which I find deeply concerning.

Dunno why I suddenly thought to share this, but @strategictaper.bsky.social 's digital archiving of the Unnoficial Welsh Language Audiobook OST of The Da Vinci Code is very special.

It’s always great in movies when someone rushes into another person’s apartment and puts on loud music and the person who lives there is like “What are you doing!?” and the person who put the music on is like “I have to tell you something very important but the room is probably bugged!”

One of the most beautiful and redeeming things about the world is that you can go into some shitty supermarket or onto some crowded bus and they’re playing music, one of the premier artforms, just out into the air for people to enjoy.

In five days, this brand new tape from @angelhair0.bsky.social and I will be released on the fantastic @tracedobjects.bsky.social label.

I encourage you to listen to this music when it is made available. I am biased, but I think it is enjoyable.

Heard a few Frank Zappa songs earlier and they all sound like they could be part of a score for something like Revenge of the Nerds: The Musical

We’re planning to roll out a chatbot to replace some of the music on our cassette tapes. The AI enabled virtual agent will be able to respond directly to questions or correct misunderstandings from listeners and in doing so, communicate the artist’s intended expression more effectively.

There’s so many different hardstyle remixes of Let it Go by Frozen uploaded on YouTube that you could have a whole radio station that only played hardstyle remixes of Let It Go by Frozen.

According to music theory, each sound in a piece of music invents their own conception of “the artist”, who compels all the sounds to conform to a certain ideal. But because each sound has their own perceived “artist”, powerful tensions arise between them and it’s these conflicts that are the music.

Aside from any other considerations, AI is probably the most incredibly boring thing that humans have ever invented, and for that reason alone it should disregarded.

A well-balanced society should contain a roughly equal amount of 808- and 909-based music. When there is an excess of music made with 909s, tensions and unpredictability will rise, while in periods of excessive 808 prevalence, that society will experience widespread complacency.

How do the CD labels get away with calling their plastic boxes “Jewel Cases”? There’s no jewels in there. It’s just a thin slice of aluminum. At least tapes can contain some exotic metals.

When you have a good idea in music, you don’t need to realize it. It’s already good and making it a real thing usually won’t make it better. It’s a waste of time. Bad ideas, on the other hand, should always be acted on, as there is a decent chance that in being realized, they will become more good.

Pretty sure some cyber criminal has been hacking into my phone and switching over to the discover tab.

When you listen to music, between 10%-35%of the sounds you hear are air vibrations caused by microscopic bugs that live in our ears. So when you hear a song and really enjoy it, it could just be that you are actually enjoying your ear bugs!

Just checking out the Ableten Live newsletter. Looks like they now let you use synthersizers, which is big news for producers working in electronic music.

Looking to make a career change from teacher/tape reserve intern to some kind of professional athlete. I’m in my 40s and not very good at any sport, but I have a great attitude, not a hot-head or a prima donna. So if anyone is looking for a pro athlete, lmk and I’ll shoot over my resume!

When trying to figure out what’s really going on in a confusing situation, it can be useful to think about who stands benefit from it, and the answer is usually ambient artists.
