Nice haul. Looking forward to see what you build.

Looks like s haul from Tayda... i love Tayda day...

I'd read it...

It's just generic stripboard. Nothin' special!

Interesting choice on the Prince. One that needs more than 300 characters to talk about. There should be some sort of annual camping trip where we get to drink beer and talk hard topics. We could call it something simple like "camp" and it could be an extension of an already established book club.

I finished the album this morning. Quite liked it! The first half was a bit more to my taste, but that's mostly because it felt more familiar to what I already listen to. I like branching out and will need to give it a few more spins.

I'll finish it off tomorrow. It's getting late where I am.

Edit - 14 for the year. I may have a problem...

Wait, now it's all Joy Division... instrumentals are all Joy Division and Floyd (so far), vocal style more Goth- Bauhaus, Damned. Very much digging it. The inspiration is clear, but the music original .

Nice. About to box up number 13 for the year. Watch out, it becomes a bit of an addiction. Welcome to the club. You can't go wrong with fuzz when you're just starting out, they're easy and sound so different. Find a 70s or 80s fuzz sound for something different.

I've only put in a few minutes so far. Trying to find out about shoegaze... my novice ear is hearing a lot of Pink Floyd. Am I off on that, or correct? #learning

Sounds like quite a few things I'm already into! Looks like I'm about to do a deep dive. Looking forward to it!

Love the socks. For those of us thinking about getting into shoegazer, where do we start? I've listened to a little and liked it, just don't know an entry point. Punk, blues, and country is usually my thing, but there's so much in between there...

There's so much out there for DIY pedals. You can start with PCB kits that are basically just lego with soldering. Then do stripboard (lots of layouts online), then modify existing circuits of your favourites. It's great fun.
