With one week until #Halloween, get in a synth-tastic spooky mood now with my four-hour playlist of ghoulish goodness. Not a Monster Mash, Ghostbusters, or Thriller in sight.

Uh-oh! There's another global #rapture again today, apparently. Just managed to escape the last few.

Recently got a rescue puppy that has thwarted plans for a London visit to give Felon #Trump the finger. I'd even prepared the protest signs.

Sad news about the death of Giorgio Armani.

I bought this on release day, and the record store gave me a lovely A3 promo poster, which I still have folded up safely inside the sleeve. Got one for Oh L'amour too.

"Reach out, touch faith..." Today's art on your sleeve over on Facebook is by #DepecheMode, released on this day in 1989.

Sad to hear about the passing of Terrence Stamp. May he finally be freed from The Phantom Zone.

A while ago, this was poolside reading for me. Design is everywhere, so understanding it is useful, and the book is funny too.

A nice new Vince Clarke remix for The Hidden Cameras has popped up on Spotify so I’ve added it to this sweetly synthetic playlist of aural bleepiness.

They’ve defied the courts, deported Americans, disappeared people off the streets, attacked civil rights, and slashed services. The corruption has gone too far. No thrones. No crowns. No kings. May it rain on his pathetic parade.

"If your convictions are worth anything, you should be ready to stand up for them" lyrics from a new mix by #PetShopBoys of 'Hymn', dedicated to the memory and cause of Alexei Navalny.

Now track 75 in an ongoing Spotify playlist of singles dating back to 1984.

I'm sad that there will be nothing new by the marvellous #SaintEtienne @bobpetesarah.bsky.social - they've never released a bad album. Can't believe 'Home Counties' is 8 years old already. It's today's 'art on your sleeve' over on Facebook. Interesting story behind the design...

The day after the night before. Love the #Eurovision winner but feel sad for the U.K. again. @brightlightx2.bsky.social you may be our only hope for next year. You free next May for a couple of weeks in Austria?

"It's not often the band come to me with suggestions but Martin volunteered that he'd love to see a front cover look less dark. I tried coming up with ideas but then during the shoot, we came across these Agave plants, and that's how that colourful cover came about." Anton Corbijn for #DepecheMode

OK, I'm ready. What the hell's about to happen? #Eurovision 2025 is so close I can see the strobe lights and smell the milkshake, espresso macchiato and poison cake. #unitedbymusic
