Luke Knott has some odd computer noises, filtered and downsampled to highlight some sharp edges, arranged in abstract forms. But I'd still say the music's friendly about it! There's frequent activity with a purposeful direction. Even when the logic is obscure, I know it's there, I never feel lost.

Monumental only due to the three decades of constant fresh, original and ~innovative~ ART that (Editions) Mego has given the world.
Nowhere near enough time to fit everyone in… more about that soon…

Anyone else find PayPal to be almost unusable these days?
Website graphics don’t load.
Address updates don’t work.
Bank accounts supposedly need verification, but verification process doesn’t work.

I’ve just turned off PayPal in as many webshops as I can here, opting for Square instead 🤷‍♂️

Official, not a joke.
I wonder how he feels about UR.

I say this with love, but the main danger in making modular synth music seems to be that if you're not careful you very quickly wind up making what sound like planetarium soundtracks

Heads up anyone expecting PayPal payments at the moment (lol hi Bandcamp Friday) - a bunch of transactions are not showing in users’ accounts. It’s a widely reported issue, PayPal are supposedly fixing it (lol)
