ICYMI, I released a new slow_the_tape album last week
For the uninitiated, slow_the_tape is my instrumental-guitar side project
'the disruption' is my 19th album, and it's the 7th in a series of albums inspired by the book Zen Guitar by Philip Toshio Sudo

Four instrumental guitar tracks, each recorded in a single take with no overdubs or edits.
Download it for £1. Or get the tape for £5.

Spent some ££ on music over on Bandcamp for the first time in a while. I highly recommend all of these, in case you're looking for recommendations...

My friend & collaborator Iain Morrison has started making visual art. This is a screen-print of his work 'They Are Not Birds Of The Isle Of Lewis', now hanging on the wall of my studio. I love it. Making/selling art is hard. Support us where and when you can. And fuck AI.

Great show by Earth and @maudthemoth.bsky.social at Glasgow's Room 2 last night. I bought Earth's debut LP back in 1993, but this was my first time seeing them live. Great set, underpinned by Adrienne Davies' *incredible* slow-drumming.

The Alan Sparhawk (@lowtheband.bsky.social) & son gig in Glasgow last night was one I'll remember for a long time - exhilarating, enthralling and deeply moving. Thank you.

Recording guitar parts today for an album by a brilliant young pianist from Glasgow. It's good to have these guys plugged in again.

This was excellent last night at @macrobertarts.bsky.social. There's loads of Scottish dates left- see it if you can.

I recorded my latest slow_the_tape album on one C90 cassette, using a Fostex 280 four-track tape recorder.
It was a lot of fun 🙂

Hi folks, I have a new album of guitar music out today.
It's called 'unreachable', and it's the first slow_the_tape album to be released on cassette.
I went back to my lo-fi DIY roots for this one & recorded it on a Fostex 4-track.
