Musician Sam Fender has donated his £25,000 Mercury Prize winnings to the Music Venues Trust, to support its work securing the future of grassroots venues around the UK. Fender: “I wouldn’t be doing what I am today if it wasn’t for all the gigs I played [at small venues] when I was starting out."

This resets everything we've done. Incredible!

I've been dipping in and out of this incredible book for the last few weeks, discovering so many quality tunes I'd not heard before. This particular mix still stands up now 'The Beat By DJ Spun (West Coast Breakbeat Rave Electrofunk 1988​-​1994) Vol 2' aboveboardprojects.bandcamp.com/album/the-be...

This gives me goosebumps agriculturemusic.bandcamp.com/album/the-sp...

Just watched this, and it was excellent entertainment. A flabbergasting story, to say the least!

New Clark out today clark.bandcamp.com/album/steep-...

For years, I've carried a two USB sticks full of music with me whenever I go traveling. On the off chance, i'm at a club and the DJ can't make it or is taken sick, I can step in. Not been needed yet, but you never know when you might be needed

One of the things I'm undertaking in my refreshed design of The Letter is fixing and/or removing broken links. Turns out the two most reliable resources are Soundcloud and Discogs. So many other broken links!

BeerTuner beertuner.web.app

It's been a busy few months personally but I now have a little spare time to work on The Letter! And I'm excited to say: a new site is in the works! I've been wading through all my old posts aiming to consolidate over 20 years of blogging about electronic music, into a more accessible format.

We need more silliness on the web.

Puzzles me why there's still no native Bandcamp player on Bsky 🤷‍♂️

Important question here - can we go back to tech serving people or is the Internet/technology a lost cause at this point? 🤔 bsky.app/profile/cafi...

In Glasgow this week I saw some posters advertising gigs by some bands with fantastic names, some favourites Snuffgussett Cucksoccer Parental Dressing Gown Disgraced Proctologist & the truly inspired... Chode of Chode Hall No idea if they're any good but the names alone are worth the ticket price.

so @meansmagazine.bsky.social is including a mail-order catalogue in its next issue. I'm hoping a bunch of labels might want to print lists of their music/stuff to sell, a means of avoiding the capitalist platforms for a bit. What labels should we try to convince to get involved?

New album available. It's a grimy, expressionist ode to a place I used to live as a kid. Naïve new wave-ish instrumentals and vibey nonsense, for those tuned to such wavelengths. proximapsychoacoustics.bandcamp.com/album/whynott
