With one week until #Halloween, get in a synth-tastic spooky mood now with my four-hour playlist of ghoulish goodness. Not a Monster Mash, Ghostbusters, or Thriller in sight.

Recently got a rescue puppy that has thwarted plans for a London visit to give Felon #Trump the finger. I'd even prepared the protest signs.

A nice new Vince Clarke remix for The Hidden Cameras has popped up on Spotify so I’ve added it to this sweetly synthetic playlist of aural bleepiness.

They’ve defied the courts, deported Americans, disappeared people off the streets, attacked civil rights, and slashed services. The corruption has gone too far. No thrones. No crowns. No kings. May it rain on his pathetic parade.

I'm sad that there will be nothing new by the marvellous #SaintEtienne @bobpetesarah.bsky.social - they've never released a bad album. Can't believe 'Home Counties' is 8 years old already. It's today's 'art on your sleeve' over on Facebook. Interesting story behind the design...

"It's not often the band come to me with suggestions but Martin volunteered that he'd love to see a front cover look less dark. I tried coming up with ideas but then during the shoot, we came across these Agave plants, and that's how that colourful cover came about." Anton Corbijn for #DepecheMode
