The story slightly buried in this announcement of the launch of SongDNA and the expansion of song credits is that they acquired WhoSampled to do this. I guarantee you there's about to be a slew of bad info attached to music now and it'll be damn near impossible to get corrected.

Sabres of Paradise remove music from Spotify: “It’s model undervalues artists”

One of the coolest things I've ever seen - @clppng.bsky.social used a bunch of tiny robots and everyday junk and trash to create the backing tracks live for a tiny desk concert. I'm seeing them in February, I wonder if the robots will be hitting the road?

Soft Cell were an equal partnership who, when firing on all cylinders as usual, were unbeatable. You get the best sense of how brilliant Dave Ball was (and Marc too) on the 12" mixes of singles. Some of the greatest records of all time.

I've long felt that the generosity of Cosey Fanni Tutti's work is overshadowed by the 'transgressive' reputation of TG, and that her art / porn actions and music have been rather siloed. It was a pleasure to try and put that straight in this profile for The Observer
