I don't know much about music promo but I do know if you get a sudden influx of new followers you should definitely do a, "check out my latest release!" post.

This is one of those posts. The release is called A House Wrapped in Sleep. Check it out maybe?

Emily A. Sprague - Cloud Time

Improv tracks recorded while touring in Japan. Just casually constructing sublime pieces on a nightly basis. An incredible artist making incredibly beautiful sound worlds like it's as natural as breathing.

Walked into a park earlier and some sparrows were going crazy in the trees. So much chatter. I got my field recorder out and they abruptly stopped and flew away.

They're onto us. They've had enough of being sampled uncredited and are unionising. Can't blame 'em tbf.

Jamie | Veins Full of Static @veinsfullofstatic.bsky.social · 2d

It's definitely very useful. The people betting the big money on it seem to be thinking it'll be good enough to take a huge number of jobs soon. And they don't seem to care what an economy looks like without any workers in. So either the bubble bursts or we go full dystopia. Maybe both!

Jamie | Veins Full of Static @veinsfullofstatic.bsky.social · 2d

So far as I can tell from this trillion dollar AI deal if a handful of companies shuffle the same money around enough it becomes worth a trillion.

Is that how it works? If so the underground ambient scene has been passing the same tenner round for so long we must be worth well over a million pounds

I've also put together a website to house all my musical doings in one place. You can find all the Bandcamp stuff (minus compilation appearances as that's going to take some time) on this page here: jamiephilpinjones.wordpress.com/veins-full-o...

Veins Full of Static began on a late night whim, using Audacity and samples found on freesound.com, gaming headphones and cheap red wine. From those shambolic beginnings it’s progressed over …

The sound of my inbox screaming tells me it's Bandcamp Friday. So why not consider pre-ordering the new WEPN Charity Compilation? 20 tracks excellent tracks from the Welsh electronic underground, proceeds to Ty Hafan Children's Hospice.

Our latest compilation 'Hurrian Hymns' is 26 tracks by different artists all themed on the fabled Hurrian Hymns, the earliest written music ever discovered. Each artist took inspiration from this to produce the music on this album. Check it out below:

Listening to this on a laptop in a cafe whilst getting some work done. Something nice about this phase before things get released…

Anyway - you’re in for a treat. Always blown away by how much talent there is out there

The world may be burning, but music is good and this record will contain lots of it.

Charity is also good, and this record will raise money for a children's hospice.

More previews soon...

It's been a quiet old 2025 for me musically but VFOS will be having an outing on the latest compilation from the Wales Electronic Producers Network.

My track is a bit of an odd diversion. But there's much better stuff on there from some very talented folks. And all for an excellent cause.

I see you've joined the legions of acts who I'd love to see who only come to Cardiff during the one week of the year I'm in St Ives.

You're in illustrious company but the next time you guys all meet can you tell everyone that whatever it is I've done to upset y'all I'm really very sorry about it!

Eno and Wolfe on AI in the latest issue of Electronic Sound mag. Really worth your time and pennies.

Apologies, on this occasion, no time to transcribe the whole block of text but the gist of it is that AI is a different form of intelligence, not the assumption of or continuation of human (and humane) intelligence.
