Great re-issue of Mirror Skies by Goodbye Wudaokou @goodbyewudaokou.bsky.social on Subjangle @subjangle.bsky.social. This sounds absolutely brilliant and has garnered much praise already on some end of year lists.

Still WAY too excited that we heard our 90-sec tambourine/guitar pile-up “There’s always next year“ on Carl Thien’s magnificent show on WZBC last night.

Really appreciate the support!

What I was hoping for! A perfect tune from Neil - hazy and wistful, and fitting in the morning winter sun watching the the frost melt.

I reckon everyone has an album in them & this one’s mine: lofi, a bit shambling, a bit jangle, a bit shoegaze and all pop. Reissued by the lovely @subjangle.bsky.social I’d thank you for giving it a listen esp if u missed it last time: goodbyewudaokou.bandcamp.com/album/mirror...

On my radio show on Sunday I'm playing a beautiful version of Assistant's 'Song For Jil' which has been remixed & re-versioned by @shopfiresmusic.bsky.social. First ever airing at 7.15pm on Untidy Radio 23/11/25. A sad song but an exciting one to share.

NEUCLOUDS came with a chorus. SHOPFIRES came with their minimalist verses. They debated long into the afternoon about the inclusion of a guitar solo. They agreed to leave it in. An 80s style indie pop anthem was born.

The collaboration between SHOPFIRES and NEUCLOUDS will be out THIS Friday 21st. The song 'This Is Not What We Were Hoping For' is a 3 minute 80s indie pop anthem. I'd be delighted if you gave it a little listen.

This track on #freshingredients is by Betty Brite, about whom I know little. I *think* who ever is behind this is in Lightheaded too, but that is unconfirmed information. Your statutory rights are not affected. It’s called The Starting Line.

This track on #freshingredients is Something Positive by @hazelene.bsky.social. Mastered by Mark Gardener, the man who decided all my teenage haircuts.

It’s a ridiculously good song. Her last (& debut) single, Every Loss, is just as good. You can find both here:
