I'm so happy to tell you that my album Alterations Volume One is out now. We're holding a little listening party at 7 pm UK time tonight to celebrate. It's free and you're very welcome to join us.

It's a big project but I do go on a bit here, apologies...

I just want to give a heartfelt thanks to all of you that have listened and enjoyed my album. After years of doing many shows in Seattle I wasn’t sure how to record something. I play live A LOT. I love it. I’m so thankful for the opportunities I have had and do not take it for granted. 🥰🤩❤️🙏😻😊

A lot of experience in there. Thanks! Patience is something I’m very focused on but without letting less confident artists feel I’ve lost enthusiasm or that the release isn’t important to me any more - it’s a balance, I’m sure.

Silver Threads @silver-threads.bsky.social · 2d

Yes! Trust the people you choose to work with

This album is currently rearranging my head. Like mountains and planets communicating with each other. Disconcerting and deeply hypnotic.

Amazing work all of yous.

Catch @clavender.bsky.social – over from New York – at @bleep43.bsky.social next weekend.

Pro-odd @dan-bean.bsky.social · 6d

This is an awesome and heavy album. Very grateful to Lavender for entrusting us with her creations. Also big up @plant43.bsky.social for the artwork, the cassette has come out beautifully.

I've finally caught up with Alterations Volume One orders after gigs last weekend and a wee stationery re-up. To make up a little time, I bumped the UK ones to 24 hour tracked. Thanks so much for all the support for ST01 so far! 🪡🙏

had someone mention my ambient zone out mixes on youtube make them think of FSOL and like yeah, that's where i am at. i want to create worlds and flow through them, be part of them, and leave them. new worlds. better worlds than this one. music can do that. it has all the power.

OK, that's £7.70 from now on, sorry. The postage price went up at checkout, too. If you've already paid less that's fine.

Ooh, nice haul

Silver Threads @silver-threads.bsky.social · 25d

Yes, I'm going for it! CD HS (customs) codes aren't affected by US tariffs and I'm including these in my forms & docs. But an extra £0.50 is added as a 'customs handling fee' on the Royal Mail site – so that's inc. in my £5.50 shipping US fee. I'm about ship my first batch of US orders tomorrow 🙏🤞
