Platforms like Spotify made over a billion dollars in profits last year, but musicians make less than a penny per stream. Grateful that the Detroit City Council passed a resolution in support of the Living Wage for Musicians Act to give music artists the pay they deserve.

I have unfollowed people on social media who have called me Andy. It’s not my name. I am not an Andy. You might as well call me Ronald. Call people by the name they want.

Yesterday was the 40th anniversary of Adonis buying his 303 aka The Jackulator. I spoke to him about it for a piece I'm writing, but I thought I'd mark the occasion with an acidic tale from my high school back in '88 (and an unsolicited dub mix of Orange Juice) rentparty.substack.com/p/chapter-34...
Chapter 34: We're Dubbing Down The House
In which I celebrate the lesser mentioned 40th anniversary of acid house.
