Alien Virus (West Indian Centre, Leeds). Oh wow oh wow oh wow. I swear he made it to sound like how you can hear the roof shake in there.
The bug pulls one back with Believers (Imperial Gardens, Camberwell). And I just spot that his track names are all paying homage to different venues. Very excited to hear Alien Virus (West Indian Centre, Leeds). The home of the mighty Subdub, the most magical place on earth.
First blood to Ghost Dubs. Track 2 is fucking outrageous. Absolute weaponry

The Bug x Ghost Dubs shell tune-for-tune in a sound clash of post-apocalyptic proportions and ruination.

One of my favourite albums of 2025. It's described as a double pack for DJs but I'm happy hammering this out at home. Heater after heater of the sort of house music that makes me feel like I'm 18 years old again.

Related. My grandma when writing was a secretary at a legal firm. Her typing on a typewriter was fucking insane speeds. I'll have to get her to remind me what it was but it's significantly faster than me and with a crazy low error count
Last shared post. Strongly agree about teaching touch typing. I'm trying to encourage it with my boys with the various games. Unfortunately I'm a shit teacher generally and I'm also self taught touch typist which means I've got myriad bad habits.

oh come on. We use modern tools; we teach kids to use modern tools. Nobody uses a mangle any more; we have washing machines. Similarly there's no need to laboriously handwrite stuff when we have keyboards. My only thing is that I hope kids learn to touch-type, because that's such a vital skill now.
Call me Luddite but it's mental that some American school districts have moved absolutely everything onto screens??

Just realised I missed the chance to gloat that this is my self hosted music server. No cloudflare reliance for me
Just done a super fast swap over of the power supply in my server over lunch. This is not a work task, this is my own personal sever 🤓
The old one was too noisy. Now I can hear the CPU fan so I'm gonna end up replacing that now.

Just got back from youngest's parents evening. In his English book was a story about Rob Anybody and the Nac Mac Feegle. I read him Wee Free Men a few months ago.

I've been putting it off for so long but I think I'm gonna have to read the Shepherd's Crown. Reading the last one feels like accepting it's the last one. Plus I'm not sure I can cope with balling my eyes out for that long
