To truly understand our world one must view it through the lens of fossil fuels: how much of each remain, where they are located & who controls them? These are the 5 countries with most “proven oil reserves”: 1. Venezuela 2. Saudi Arabia 3. Iran 4. Iraq 5. Canada en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

On a personal note, I’m selling my beloved electric guitar as it’s less suited for our stage show than the studio and I’ll be on primary live axe duties going forward. This guitar’s appeared on most of the Fold catalogue. Here’s the listing if you’re interested: reverb.com/item/9165357...

It is a week on from the release of our latest work 10 Past Midnight and we just want to say thank you to everyone who has supported us with this and past releases. We can’t adequately convey how much it means to us 💖

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it.

Merci pour votre gentillesse Iggy ❤️ www.iggymagazine.com/10-past-midn...

Discovered/fell in love with the music of @fold.fm this year. Deftly blending funk & hip-hop aesthetics and clips from various speeches & media, these songs are catchy-yet-poignant, with a message that sticks with you long after it's over. Like DJ Shadow w/ more politics! ampwall.com/a/fold/album...

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going! Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists. We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

I don't know how you manage to just absolutely nail it every time! The use of spoken word is remarkable. Love love love it!

“A nation that’s divided against itself cannot stand.” — Fannie Lou Hamer, as featured on our new EP 10 Past Midnight, out now: fold.bandcamp.com/album/10-pas...

Many thanks & love to Gideon Coe for playing So It Goes from our debut album on BBC 6 Music in celebration of the album’s 10th anniversary. He’s been with us from day one and we are hugely grateful ❤️

Today @ 1pm ET! Join @anatosaurus.bsky.social and @mikepod.bsky.social on Substack Live for their weekly Meeting the Moment!

There is a poignant synchronicity in the death of Dick Cheney coinciding with the election of @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as the first Muslim Mayor of New York City. The “Cheney Doctrine” had a devastating impact on Muslim countries and Cheney was also operationally responsible on / for 9/11.

At last, good news for New York City.

Legal experts agree that the indictment against me and five others is politically-motivated. Thank you @legaleagle.tv @lizdye.bsky.social for bringing attention to this case.

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE. Their CEO Daniel Ek is funding an AI military defence company. They also undervalue and underpay artists. For all of those reasons and more we did not release our latest record on their platform.

The most important learning in our 15 years as a group is how narratives are wielded by the powerful to control a society’s thoughts. Narrative Control—from our new EP—features the words of Thomas Karat who delivers the most concise explanation of how this works. fold.bandcamp.com/track/narrat...

If you need something to give you a little hope in a bleak world then have a listen to the new album from @fold.fm fold.bandcamp.com/album/10-pas...

Today marks a decade since our first album came out and we’ve just released a new EP, 10 Past Midnight, reflecting on 10 years of resistance in sound & remaining unsilenced in a time of stifled dissent. Only available on Bandcamp & Ampwall, in protest. fold.bandcamp.com/album/10-pas...

The Persistence is one of our favourite podcasts and they’ve just done an episode on Fannie Lou Hamer that you should really check out. Full disclosure, our track is the podcast’s theme tune and we did have some involvement with this episode but never mind that. spotify.link/NtK2KNNLWXb

In celebration of Samhain / Halloween, here’s a private link to a track from our forthcoming EP (out this Sunday) that is thoroughly ominous in both atmosphere & content. Narrative Control features the voice & observations of behavioural analyst Thomas Karat. 🎃☠️👻 soundcloud.com/fold/narrati...

“True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.” — Dr Martin Luther King Jr

Nowhere if I couldn’t get back to my own time.

Don’t take *our* word for it… (thanks Neil)

We’ve been waiting for this form of activism for a long time, how lovely to see it has finally arrived! Bravo @everyonehateselon.bsky.social 👏👏👏 ”Daily Mail ‘New True Edition’ — We blame migrants so you don’t blame billionaires.”

Little reminder: we’re throwing a Listening Party over at Bandcamp on Thursday at 7pm BST (that weird British time zone) for our upcoming EP ‘10 Past Midnight,’ which will be released on Sunday. Please join us for tunes and banter! Its free, of course — just RSVP: fold.bandcamp.com/merch/10-pas...

This is very good news indeed.

Amplifying stifled voices: Fannie Lou Hamer open.substack.com/pub/foldfm/p...

From a Daily Express journalist calling for my deportation to a Reform MP saying it “drives her mad to see adverts full of black and Asian people”, the mask has truly slipped. This poisonous politics fuels far-right violence against minorities and migrants. We all must unite against it.

Subvert is launching this fall. Before we get there, we want to give an early look at what’s being built. Subvert Members get first access to explore the alpha stage platform later this month.

Buy and sell a digital discography Another heavily requested feature went live last month: the ability to buy and sell a complete discography at a discounted price. Shown here are bundles from @fold.fm, @sylfvr.art, and Woe ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇ ⬇

Sometimes I schedule emails to send at 8am the following day in order to make people think that I’m functional and respectable at silly o'clock. Old masking habits.

I’ve only just found out that Amadou (of Amadou & Mariam) died suddenly in April. How did I not get the news? Dimanche à Bamako is among my favourite albums, I’ve had that vinyl with me at most of my DJ gigs. Here’s my favourite, in Amadou’s honour. Rest In Power 🖤 www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O4l...

“Tell me a fact and I’ll learn. Tell me a truth and I’ll believe. But tell me a story and it will live in my heart forever.” — Native American proverb

Confronted with the peaceful resistance of everyday people loving their neighbors, this regime of the bullies for the billionaires inflicts violence. Thank you, again, all who confront this evil & greatest hopes your safety & continued strength.

If anyone has idea for credibly cataloging and quantifying different frames prevalent across No Kings events (e.g. healthcare, cost of living, anti-fascism, pro-democracy, immigrant rights, respect for science, etc), that would be very useful for activation research.

Good news: with the help of Leeds Youth Service we’re expanding our music production workshop into another neighbourhood after a little trial session. This area is considerably more neglected, troubled and underprivileged. The kids are brilliant, can’t wait to make some beats with them.

Keep forgetting the call to action, RSVP here: fold.bandcamp.com/merch/10-pas...

We’re hosting a listening party for our upcoming EP on October 30 at 7pm (BST) on @bandcamp.com, please join us! We can all have a nice chat while we listen. We’ve done a couple of these and they’ve all been lovely. fold.bandcamp.com/merch/10-pas...

The silence of the Westminster lobby as one of their own backs calls for me — an elected Member of Parliament — to be deported is telling. No condemnation, just bootlicking of their proprietors and jostling for Zone 2 dinner party invites. Our media class is rotten to the core.

We’re looking for a new bass player, sadly Jack had to focus on other things. Anyone in #Leeds interested? DM us.

Our forthcoming EP 10 Past Midnight is up at @ampwall.com for pre-order at last. The release day’s exactly 10 years after our debut album came out on 2 Nov. It’ll only be available on Ampwall & Bandcamp. No other streamies. Spotify does too many bad things. ampwall.com/a/fold/album...
