Rummaging through some old records, this feels rather prescient.

Our new single ‘Vanja & Slavcho’ is out today on all digital platforms that you can buy / not buy / listen to or not listen to our music on. Why not do all of those things?

It features a tale about some talented twins and my kids are singing on the end of it.
Lovely.

Just watched ep. 8 of Andor.

Filmed in 2023, but plot revolving around the Empire sending stormtroopers to a city, deliberately provoking demonstrations, and then ensuring that violence ensues as an excuse for imposing military rule/occupation doesn't exactly look subtle right now..

Went to see Kikuo live IRL after having visited their VRChat world.

There is a special place in hell for people who wear backpacks at gigs.

Many moons ago I ran an experimental music event in Reading, England called KRAKED. We mostly played electronica & IDM with a smattering of Breakcore

I keep adding to this playlist as if I were still playing there. It is over a week and a 1/2 of music. Enoy!

I hate digital tickets. I had planned to keep making these.

Wow! What a surprisingly fantastic film.

Last minute Prodigy tickets at their spiritual home Brixton Academy.

It says a lot about the band that they chose to do x3 shows in a favoured mid capacity venue rather than do a shitty stadium gig.

A glorious riot of a show and a bunch of new material.

Who knew that clowns could end up being the highlight of Xmas? Slava’s Snowshow will become a family tradition from now on.

Currently showing at the Harold Pinter theatre, London

Can’t believe I got a Christmas card from my favourite podcast @quietriotpod.bsky.social

Merry Christmas!

The Arcane art book is insanely awesome. Beautiful art work and tonnes of insight into the creative process. It even comes with a Jinx stencil!

Industrial Bass by Crystal Distortion may well be my album of the year.

Weird it doesn’t appear to be on Bandcamp.

All releases should come packaged with delicious hot sauce and shiny stickers.

Any time I am feeling down I take a look at this picture of my son meeting Zpor, the lead singer of Henge.

First birthday gifts from my kids that they paid for out of their own pocket (unprovoked).

They know me well!

Just took the next step in my de-Xification. Turned off X notifications. Very close to total shut down.

This Kikuo show may well be my favourite VRChat world of all time.

One of the best examples of being immersed in an artist’s vision. And it’s my kind of trippy batshittery
