“flakebelly is ultimately the sort of the artist we need more of - a genuine weirdo-auteur carving his own path purely for the love of the game.” Lewis Wade, Is This Music? The Boy In The Diving Bell - seventeen tracks of psych #alt-folk, warped tape & ghosts. Links in bio. #PsychFolk #acoustic

My new album, The Boy In The Diving Bell, is best described as: confessions of an English tape machine tweaker. Seventeen uneven tracks of alt-folk and fractured psychedelia. flakebelly.com/boy-in-the-d... #PsychFolk #acoustic #folk #music #album #indiefolk #altfolk

Mucking about with feedback loops @flamingjangle.bsky.social Danelectro forced into being a bass, WEM Copicat patched through a Tascam 106, pushed into self-oscillation. I like to destroy sound through every wire and circuit I can, hiss and hum included. #music #recording #analogue #studios

1. One week ago today, I released The Boy In The Diving Bell. It took a year to make - but really it’s been decades in the making. A lifetime of threads stitched into sound, a long reckoning pulled into seventeen pieces of music. #IndieFolk

Recorded and mixed at Flaming Jangle Studios, The Boy In The Diving Bell runs through an Akai 4000D - one channel gone, mono. Hiss, delay, and glitches aren’t flaws - they’re the spine. Sometimes I played it for blurples. Link in bio. #RecordingStudio #ReelToReel #LoFidelity #IndieFolk

Haven’t used a #guitar amp in months. Lately I’ve been patching random bits of gear together just to see what kind of nasty, overloaded sounds come out. I like committing early and letting the recording shape the mix. Here’s a rough one from today. Also: buy my #album #music #indie
