I often think about my old geology teacher telling us about how he tried to fit the first Clash album onto one side of a C60, and was yelling at his turntable so loudly at the end of the last song that he made the needle vibrate enough to pick up his voice.

I'm about 2/3 of the way through Megalopolis now, and can't envisage any future where it gets re-evaluated as a work of misunderstood genius. It's basically a Tommy Wiseau film with a bigger vision & big names attached. Future cult classic probably, but only because it's a total pile of bollocks

Sleaford Mods tonight in Newcastle. Much better than last time I saw them, and also the first time I've had someone whinge at me for being too tall. I said maybe stand in the space next to me instead of behind me. She didn't, then someone taller than me stood in front of her. I admit I laughed

If everyone with any sense is finally leaving Twitter and all that's left are bitter, angry c*nts whose posts will be undoubtedly scraped for that Grok bot thing, does that increase the likelihood that the human husk will finally get the verbal diarrhea spouting AI tool he always dreamed of?

Whenever Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song pops into my head (which isn't very often, admittedly), my brain always confuses the lyrics with Spike Milligan's In The Ning Nang Nong, so it goes: We come from the land of the ice and snow, where the trees go ping and the monkeys all say "boo!"

If anyone's in Newcastle (UK), I'm playing my first gig in many years at Little Buildings on 7th Sept. Expect jungle & rave influenced breakbeat mayhem with a dash of vaporwave & breakcore.

Finally made it along to Lubber Fiend last night for the ambient drones of Zoviet France and the weird industrial folk of Cantenac Dagar. Never heard of CD before. Was a bit hit or miss for me, but was an interesting performance

I've managed to make a very satisfying smoky cello-esque sound that sounds a bit like the How Soon Is Now Guitar played through a vaccuum cleaner that's looping around my head though

Definitely need to read the manual for this one. I've not got a clue what some of it is even doing

Madrona Labs' #Sumu is the only softsynth I've ever used that lets you blow virtual smoke rings of sound. This thing is great!
Damn, I thought I could upload a gif direct from my desktop here... Ah well, you'll just have to imagine them moving!

Sounds like they've finished. That was great. Now back to working on my own stuff. Currently a breakcore remix of Know How by Young MC

Apparently they're from Guildford. Must be a rough place. Never been. Imagining it as a wasteland full of shards

Had no idea who it was , but I found the listings for the Cluny, it's the Phazed Out festival, found a band called Pintglass are playing at 9:00, and then found their bandcamp page.

Pintglass are the first bsnd to make me stop what I'm doing in the studio and go and stand in the corridor to listen to the band that are playing live next door.
