Nessun Dorma is kind of their Sweet Caroline, really.

Thanks to my small, but loyal band of listeners, I really appreciate it.

My first album in a long time. I nearly gave up releasing music, a process I really don't enjoy. Luckily, inspiration can arrive in unexpected ways. In this instance, some CDRs & tapes and unfinished business from the late 90s... kieranmahon.bandcamp.com/album/wasted...

I’m enjoying Jeremy’s recent stuff a lot. It’s got early hours of the morning on a Chicago L train vibes.

Morning folks I've released a new e,p today on Bandcamp Four tracks of bass, beats and fx jeremystokes.bandcamp.com/album/radio-...

No gimmicks. youtu.be/r5X_uXoqmsE?...

Masterful youtu.be/t-dtpYdQwPE?...

One final little pre-release listen, if you want it. You can consider where & how Dinosaur Jr, The Doors, Alice Coltrane, Laurie Spiegel and Jackie Mittoo may have played a part in it. But don't tell anyone. soundcloud.com/kieran-mahon...

“Why didn’t you re place the wrong track?” Honestly, I just couldn’t be bothered to do the whole thing again. Only realised once it had all gone on and been processed.

New album will be on streaming sites. I think this music will suit the format. However, I accidentally uploaded wrong 1st track. Instead of an excerpt of an old demo it's the whole thing. So, a completely bewildering start to things. Brilliant! I've not lost my touch. FFS.

How was work? Me:

This is pretty much album of the year already!!

My new album comes out on Friday. Yay, me!

Bunch of fannies

4 carrier bags of crap today. As usual, most of it from fishing boats. Plus this fella.

I’m having my annual Faith No More day. It’s tremendous as always.

I just saw Eternal Return came out 5 years ago today. Feels like a lifetime. On we go.

this set is so good. Not just the technique, but the flow of the music. It’s so seamless - genuine turntablism. Records & decks as instruments. youtu.be/5zcP3P7h51k?...

I see that crushingly lonely twat Lineham has piped up again. The wonky train wreck of a man.

Jah Wobble’s autobiography is brilliant. I highly recommend the audiobook. Sample dialogue from the late 70s/early 80s sections: “Blows were thrown. I saw him years later and he said I’d been right. So in the end, things worked out OK”

I bloody love Mitchell Marsh.

Is “Can hold a wee in for a really long time” worthy of being on my CV?

Just fiddling about while tuning up my son’s guitar for school tomorrow…listen to the fecking dog asleep next to me 😂😂

I have actually been in a real life, not a piss take situation, where a bloke has got out a guitar and sang Froggy Went A Courting.

Run Beto! Run!

68 mins sub: Beto for Barry

Yeah, my kid is always on that Tik Tok. Learning about biology. Always with the learning. On the Tik Tok.

dead razorbill on Bexhill beach. An unusual sight.

“Spar Run” from Wasted on the Young Feb 6th 26 years late. The soundtrack to lost time and a film that was never made.

Can’t tell the cops from the robbers… youtu.be/eeTnog5RRQo what a tune

On the right day at the right time this is the heaviest thing ever. It must be played at extreme volume. youtu.be/V_ONyukSLqA?...

There’s a load of videos appearing in my fb & insta where these kind of social media bros find poor people on the street & interact with them & then surprise them with a wad of money. I’m weirdly conflicted about them.

Claiming the massive orphanage in Gijon was purely for the children of miners...fucking hell, you don't have to censor Franco's history anymore, do you? yes, Portillo is on my telly. By mistake.

I didn’t know he’d died. I remember reading about him years ago and it remains one of the most remarkable stories I’ve ever heard.

Me at work tomorrow.

This Barcelona and Real Madrid is in Saudi Arabia? Fucking hell. Fuck them all.

I’ve gone to the pub wearing double denim by mistake.

This is so good. No excuse for being shirtless, but still. Tremendous stuff. youtu.be/C4OVUIktfII?...

I have to say, as a long time enjoyer & participator in post-Ashes tour fumes, that this is easily the best fume since 06/07. Keep it going!

Stokes “we’ve gone downwards over last 2 years” Yes, indeed. That sounds like change is needed, eh?

2nd day of 3rd test - Stokes Worst thing of the series for me (from a decent list)

Becky’s brain is miles off this now. She’s looking forward to getting the fuck out of this gig. It’s paid well, nice winter sun…but cricket…she’ll not answer her agent’s call next time.

Out of interest: How many times has Arteta been booked this season for stepping on pitch?

“I had a difficult day on my work placement today. A man pulled someone’s hair and an old Scotch man shouted at me. I hope it’s better tomorrow.”

Absolute belters. As is the BBC theme. Somewhat overlooked, I think it is technically better than ITV’s iconic Aztec Gold. What do we think DX7? Fairlight? Bit of both? It is a banger. youtu.be/uPtCxH7tuKo?...

SYNTH QUESTIONS NAILED!

As annoying as Smith’s dismissal was, it was nowhere near as annoying as Agnew going on about it for 2 hours.

That’s both openers summed up. Duckett not prepared to change, Crawley actually trying to do right thing, but just not good enough.

Big ton here for someone.
