A sporadically unscheduled creative commons music podcast. Named after The Fall. Also codes video games (since days of the N64), tinkers with (mostly old) hardware. (He/Him)

Here sometimes, but more commonly at https://mastodon.scot/@edinburgh_man
So, finally I have remembered to log back into this app after wiping my phone a few months ago.

There is a new podcast! I've done in my back, so rather than kneel in a tiny cupboard I record a podcast outside. Yes, I know that you've missed those quality outdoor recordings.

I really like this track "My Brakes" by Thrower featuring Fuvk. It will be in the next podcast (tomorrow?) so this is a sneak preview.

Current obsession. Posts on the Steve Hoffman forums where one users asks what the best pressing of this or that is, and then there are 25 pages of contradictory replies.

@tobyhadoke.bsky.social Hi Toby. I watched your documentary on David Whitaker today. Wonderful and heartbreaking. I hope the correspondence he had with a fan towards the end made him realise how much he and his work was loved, at least by fans if not the Beeb. Lovely to see all those photos too.

Forgot to register for the neurodiversity meetup 🤔

I shall make a podcast this week. I know, I've promised this before. But this time it will happen.

It's also Bandcamp Friday, so there may be some recommendations perhaps? I think at least half the tracks are "name your price".

@beautiful-cosmos.bsky.social Been listening to you on @marcrileydj.bsky.social and @gidcoe.bsky.social on catch-up (a day behind as ever) and loving it! Just bought the album on Bandcamp and saw that the very first thing I bought on that site was The Maple Leaves. All coming full circle!

Laminate flooring is finished in the bedroom. My knees and thighs are not happy. Probably shouldn't have skipped leg day for the last 35 years.

Well it was a good run. Almost a year of sticking with the old one. But today I have been forced to update to the new Sonos app and I can report it is still abysmal.

I think the wind level may have dropped from Michael Jackson holding on to two trees, to 80s yuppy listening to a recording on a Memorex cassette.

Judging by the signal strength on the TV, the satellite dish is now pointing towards the Voyager spacecraft, so fingers crossed the Internet holds up for #totp tonight.

End times, folks. The 24 hour big Asda is shutting at 9am this morning.

Michael Jackson holding on to a couple of trees level of windy this morning.
January 24, 2025 at 8:22 AM
Windy out.

So apparently this storm might become a "sting jet". I'm sure that's fine.
January 23, 2025 at 7:43 PM
Storm supplies? Well, we still have unopened tubs of both Heroes and Celebrations from Christmas so reckon we should be fine.
January 23, 2025 at 6:31 PM
There is a real risk of the storm disrupting tomorrow's #TOTP viewing, and that's just not on.
January 23, 2025 at 5:55 PM
Might get some washing hung out tomorrow.

Sorry to report I am in a Costa.

Current status is... Hydrated. Am unable to consume much other than soft foods and liquids after getting a bit taken off my tongue in the dental hospital yesterday. Stitches on the tongue are as fun as they sound. Two thumbs down. Do not recommend.

Apologies to those back at work. It's an in-service day at Edinburgh schools so I have a day off supervising the kids (i.e. they are hiding in their room playing video games while I'm listening to Deerhoof in the living room).
January 6, 2025 at 10:16 AM
The kids have spent all day telling us that Hogmanay has been cancelled, and instead it's just Hog Man Day. So Happy Hog Man Day folks.

It seems like only yesterday that it was Fish Mush Day.

Good morning, old people.
