Sleep Token were the band I listened to most last year. "Sundowning" remains my favourite album of theirs, mainly because the highlights on that album soar so damn high.

This song in particular I've been revisiting recently: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCGg...

yeah it's a shame that the live chiptune scene in the uk has just kinda died off.

I'd also love to try and get to a chiptune gig in Europe sometime

Starting with my current obsession: www.youtube.com/watch?v=365s...

The whole album (Demonology) is really great but this one in particular has been on repeat a lot.

I didn't expect much from Starmer when he got elected to begin with, but some of the decisions taken during thier term over the last year have been bewildering. They're going to get bloodied in the locals next year.
