Making & listening to music is mostly about being surprised. Like finding shapes in clouds. That's about as perfect as it gets.
An interesting pedal. I always thought it was a little strange because the "feedback" it produced was a bit detuned with the tone going into it. Not that it's a bad thing... #feedback #guitarpedal #effectspedal

For the Disquiet Junto on 14 Nov 2025, I found a warble due to no pressure pad on the 1996 tape. For the work at hand, I found an older digital transfer to use but have this recorded for later use. You can hear what I came up with on SoundCloud ift.tt/OAHdf7j #cassette #tape #finishing

Recording on 08 Nov 2025, I used this Jay Turser Surfmaster - a 3-pickup Jaguar-ish thing - as well as an ebow and a Joyo AC Tone pedal. The track - titled "Isosceles - Determined Or Annoyed?" - also includes Reason's Europa and percussion in the form of a wok cover. #wok #homerecording #ebow

One day soon, I will use this again outside. I should get my backlog of film developed first. 120 film photography with limited exposures and development bag film swaps - is quite a change compared to phone photography. Each photo is like a mini-event. #yashica #mediumformat #camera #film

Sunday afternoon, 15 Nov 2025, pulling backyard sounds out of the air and onto tape - then later into Ableton Live - for some future use. #microcassette #fieldrecording #handheld #slowspeed

A glance at the pickup on my Heit Deluxe. This was used (with an ebow) on a piece that I intend to release on an album by the end of the year. #heit #mijguitar #experimentalmusic #electronicmusic #ebow #followme #mind

A wonderful album that has everything against it on paper - yet another 60s vocalist who sounds like Mick Jagger, a few tracks that may not have the band on them and a few others with a vocalist brought in by the producer. #chocolatewatchband #psychrock #garagepunk #psychedelia

If you say “cassette culture” in 2025, you get tired Gen X comments about winding tapes with pencils. It was much much more - pre-dates distribution of your own vision in this century. Still a pile of unknown music. Must reads - OP and Sound Choice mags. #cassetteculture #homemade #bedroomproducer

Peter Gabriel’s storyline is beside the point here. The emotional roller coaster that was his life at this time comes through nakedly. At any given moment the entire performance works - 4 very long sides, with only the 4th seeming rushed. #genesis #prog #vinylcommunity
