"[Jack DeJohnette] is a person who for around 50 years, dating from his early work with Charles Lloyd and Jackie McLean, circa 1966, up through In Movement, released in 2016, managed to sound, at every point along this timeline, deeply and restlessly contemporary, forever on the edge."

I wish it happened more often- but the arrival of a new album from Steve Tibbetts is always a cause for celebration. His latest is a beautiful, emotive masterpiece- www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCBZ...

Jack DeJohnette, just one of the deepest musicians ever, and a personal hero. Here is my obituary for NPR Music.

Terrible News. I saw DeJohnette play live, with many different ensembles but a show with his band Special Edition, back around 1980, was among the best, most consistently electrifying concerts I have ever been to. RIP to a true master-

I love horror fiction & films and there are some great discoveries here. Just in time for the Halloween season-

RIP Dave Ball. Soft Cell & The Grid-

The Necks' 20th studio album, Disquiet, offers more than three hours of hypnotic, labyrinthine, patient intensity, and it is a bold, disquietening statement about today’s short attention economy. My review for Salt peanuts: salt-peanuts.eu/record/the-n...

"'All contemporary pop utilising computers and samplers owes something to the innovations of Trevor Horn in the early eighties,' said journalist and agent provocateur Paul Morley on the radical studio work of his Art of Noise comrade." How the Art of Noise revolutionised sample culture:

I wish I could say that this was "unbelievable" but we now live in a Country where it is sadly (and frighteningly) NOT:

Turkish Psych Guitarist, Umut Adan's first single, from his upcoming new album, is featured in @faroutmagazine.co.uk and on their "Big Indie Playlist" on Spotify- faroutmagazine.co.uk/the-big-indi...

WATCH: @chrislhayes.bsky.social explains precisely why Mike Johnson is stalling the new Dem rep's swear-in over the Epstein vote: "Right now, Johnson can pressure the four Republican signers to change their minds. He has time to do it—as long as he keeps Adelita Grijalva out of Congress."

“Bogota” Umut Adan and Zebanis

Nothing screams insecurity & weakness more than shouting at the top of your lungs about how "tough" you are... Pathetic.

In a fractured world, filled with far too many Donald Trumps- Be a Jane Goodall...

"Bogotà” is the first single from the upcoming new album from Turkish Psych guitarist Umut Adan and his band Zebânis.

Out Today: The first single from the upcoming new album from Turkish Psych guitarist Umut Adan and his band Zebânis.“ Bogotà”, is anchored in the traditions of Anatolian psych and propelled by the pulse of cumbia, transforming folk memory into a modern, global groove

Delia Derbyshire Appreciation Society just posted a playlist of the remixes they have done for other artists. To my ears, this showcases the art of remixing at its highest, most creative level. Each track is its own, immersive, sonic adventure

More sad news. Another huge loss for the music world. RIP to a legend who elevated everything he played on-

This will be the best thing to ever happen for his ratings-

#RIP lovely Terry Reid. I interviewed him for a MOJO interview c. 2005. It was a lovely afternoon but the interview was so spiralling and abstract that it was effectively unuseable. I kept the tapes for years, then they vanished in a house-move. So much for the archive.

RIP-
