Post like no one is watching.
1996 reissue of utterly bonkers 1969 album An Electric Storm by White Noise. Led by future library music master David Vorhaus, the project at this point included the legendary Delia Derbyshire and Brian Hodgson from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. A tape manipulation masterpiece. #CDFriday

Any slaw in a storm; that’s the sentiment of a true slaw slut.

Endless gratitude to whoever left Amy Hempel’s Collected Stories in my building’s laundry room.

Pearl’s Girl from Underworld for #CDFriday. 1997 TVT/Wax Trax! US version. Five excellent Second Toughest era b-sides, largely in a lush and moodier mode. Secret weapon banger Cherry Pie is a special treat.

Listening to Swastika Eyes, trying to keep it under 90.

It would be so resplendent with caricature as to be amusing if I had food in my refrigerator.

Roughly a third of registered voters in the United States have nonpartisan or “third party” affiliation. We are actively ignored and/or marginalized as “swing voters” in the media, as if we’re given any meaningful choice. Two party dominance is systemic oppression perpetuated by the ruling classes.

People make claims and statements about “ambient” music and I can’t help but question whether they’ve actually listened to Roach and Stearns and Rich and Demby or if they’ve just been watching reels on Instagram.

Today marks seven years since I moved back to Omaha, which is actually pretty fucked up.

Secular eschatology as quintessential dopamine hit.

I’d like to think I can respect a user that reposts themselves, but it is an absolute struggle.

New arrivals for #CDFriday:
ADULT.: Detroit House Guests. Remarkable collaborative album from the legacy electropunks in a largely more atmospheric style.
Forest Swords: Bolted. UK postwhatever. Slow motion beats, huge blown synths, murky moods for ages.

I'm happy to be getting back to making art and music these past two months. Here we have some proper glitch, with more work to come.

After a number of months largely in the house, the amount of muttering I do to myself in public is worrisome.

A big part of this current censorship situation is the long shadow of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. This massive industry-led deregulation made Nexstar (197 TV stations) and Sinclair (193 TV stations) possible. People go on about the Fairness Doctrine but don’t discuss this at all.

My selections for this #CDfriday:
Brian Eno’s 2020 soundtrack for Rams, Gary Hustwit’s doc on Dieter Rams.

Ideology reflects the convenience of belief not the challenge of actuality.
