We're running one of our rare sales thru December 1st on Filthyrecs.com (I personally recommend the zoetropic slipmat 🌀) #independent #hiphop #beats

"Look for the helpers" ~ Mr Rogers. Violent J (of ICP): owns homophobic past, strives for better future; Fred Durst (of Limp Bizkit): vocal supporter of trans rights; Guy Fieri (of flavortown): generous philanthropist. A stark contrast to the regulars at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave 😒

well this certainly accelerated my move to @proton.me 😮‍💨 *nix/BSD OS, Libre office, Brave browser, Proton mail, Bluesky social, Signal chat, self-hosted NextCloud & immich, what else am I missing in my soverign nerd kit?? #privacy #security #anonymity

If you're in Portland (ME) tonight 5-7pm, stop by Moody Lords for @filthyrecs.bsky.social Filthy Friday with special guests @waxfed.bsky.social. Later on, catch me at Blue/BPM with MANUEL & co for a Santana tribute. 🔥

Who is your favorite #heavymetal act -- Dr. John? Foghat? Van Morison??

Is distinguishing wet from dry by touch such an innately-learnable skill that we don't even notice we're not maybe exactly technically physiologically equipped to do it? The only other I can think of is vertical echolocation - we piggyback on the comb filters from our horizontal stereo ears.

Finally reading Dilla Time. Cried twice and now I need to go make music. I'm on page 5.

An embarrassment of riches in the mail today 😁🙌 #localmusic @graphicmelee.bsky.social #tapes

Oooh look what came today! 🤩 @waxfed.bsky.social @djmayonnaise.bsky.social #newvinyl

That is all.🎐

Tell me you're a ride-or-die crate digger without telling me 😂 #ditc #cratedigger #herbalpert #vinyl #sampling #djing

Keeping the collection out of milk crates and off the floor is a constant battle... against myself 😅 #diy #records #vinyl

"there is So much Rascallity, so much Venality and Corruption, so much Avarice and Ambition, such a Rage for Profit and Commerce among all Ranks and Degrees of Men even in America, that I sometimes doubt whether there is public Virtue enough to support a Republic." John Adams Jan 1776; I feel u bruh

Doing some research into countries with import duty exemptions for physical media (specifically music recordings). Does anyone have any resources they can point me to? #musiciansky #indie #musicbusiness #lawyersky

I've barely touched my #gbody #projectcar all summer 😥 how do y'all maintain motivation? (Or I guess I should say focus, b/c I'm plenty motivated on the @filthyrecs.bsky.social front - got *two* projects at the pressing plant rn! 😁) #oldsmobile #cutlass #supreme #lowrider #adhd

I wonder if we can bioengineer RFK Jr's brain worms to eat the spoon's-worth of micro- and nano-plastics in all of our brains? (Greetings from the dumbest possible timeline! 👋) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Idea: an "olde tyme" dispensary with fake wood paneling, avocado green carpeting, black-light reactive posters, lava lamps, console hifi, CRT TV with period-correct gaming, &c. &c. Reply with 👾 if you'd be a customer 🤔

Pics from last night's Stereo Dreams producer showcase! 🔥 Ty @graphicmelee.bsky.social for putting on such a great night each month! 🙏 #musiciansky #producersky #beats #livemusic

Are there any recent studies on the administrative burden of parenting in developed countries? I have a sneaking suspicion it's outrageous, but only anecdotal evidence from a small sample size in support 😂 #dadlifel

Just dropped a 256GB MicoSD card here. Somewhere 🥀

Idk if I'm connected to anyone local to Portland ME on here, but I'm playing at Novel tonight! 🤙

#beatmaker Won Pound's monster #beattape THE MANUAL just came out on Filthy Records @filthyrecs.bsky.social 43 tracks, 83 minutes 🥵 it has been the soundtrack to my summer so far 🌅 filthyrecs.com (cassette includes the download too) #sp404 #music #supportartists

In 2 weeks we’ll be back at The Apohadion Theater with live performances from Dirocco & Cato, Becky Krill, and Echo Response 7/2. 7:30pm. $5-$15. All ages. Stereo Dreams. Don’t sleep...

A cautionary tale for my fellow #homelab enthusiasts: just because work is throwing away a perfectly good [_____], doesn't mean you need to take it home & plug it in 😬😬😬😬 drastically scaling back asap. (Note: there was other stuff going on, too, but not 24/7; also I never spin down my HDDs)

My brother has an old pneumatic player piano and got a bunch of old piano rolls. Among them were several hand-punched by Scott Joplin himself! 🤯 Listening to them gave me chills, Joplin's truly Elite Syncopation leaping the intervening century to bring his tunes to life. 🎹

Haven't done any car posts on here yet, but Grainger had the 300wpsi 1/2" NPT hose hookup, gonna have this 1.5 ton #gbody hopping in no time 😎💪 #cutlasssupreme #oldsmobile #lowrider #airride #burgundywhip

Went on a @filthyrecs.bsky.social field trip to see the amazing @lizpelly.bsky.social give a great talk on her book "Mood Machine" at @spacegallery.bsky.social. If you make or listen to music in 2025, you should probably read this to understand how you're being commodified 🫵🥸 #musiciansky #booksky

Played the All Roads music fest yesterday with @manuelguitarist.bsky.social (the rest of the band needs to get on BlueSky!) I always forget to take pics from the actual music part tho 🤦‍♂️ drove by the @cardsagainsthumanity.com island tho! (& of course reppin' @filthyrecs.bsky.social wherever I roam 😁)

@ubiquiti.bsky.social Cloud Gateway Fiber is here!! 😁😁😁 Perfect solution for my blended network - 2.5gig for the consumer stuff, 10gig SFP+ for the enterprise cast-offs lurking in the basement 😏🤓 major electricity savings too cuz it will replace TWO (elderly) servers #homelab #sketchy #nerdsky 🥳

Thank you so much to everyone who made it out for the Chanfeld release party! The support was amazing; our anti-streaming, pro-artist message is finding traction, and I'm so excited for the future of Filthy Records & Tapes!

Congrats Chan!🍾(Now everyone go buy a copy at filthyrecs.com 😁)

After years (decades?) of me apologizing for my messy studio, @goddamnchan.bsky.social suggested I lean into the chaos, and I haven't been this happy or excited about my own music in YEARS. In here, time and self dissolve and I get the sublime joy of just being 🎶🕊️ #musiciansky #prodsky #producersky

When ppl ask "y u hate Reagan?" 😮‍💨 (P.s.: Gabirel Zucman is a UC Berkeley economist)

Ahhh, finally: "ECC." Just 3 letters, but means so much when storing irreplaceable data in ZFS (I follow 3-2-1, but still). The sun is shining brighter, birdsong is sweeter, and my blood pressure went down appreciably #homelab #zfs #trueNAS

@filthyrecs.bsky.social kinda Saturday. 1) mixing 45's from @gabefm.bsky.social 's shop, #littlerecords 2) vegetables! 🤤 3)cover to emcee Thumb Driveionairé's new album "80 MILLION KILOBYTEZ" 4) ricky approves (& after weathering the dishwasher 😳) #filthyrecords

Wow! The @filthyrecs.bsky.social zoetrope slipmat (designed by @goddamnchan.bsky.social) is getting some love over on r/vinyl! Check it out (or buy your own at www.filthyrecs.com 😉) #vinyl #design #zoetrope #animation

Finished up the #Peavey Patriot refresh - even snagged a custom pickguard from pickguardheaven and stainless screws for it 🤌 all that's left is a setup (pedantic viewers will know that bridge isn't intonated 😅) #musiciansky #bass #basssky

"New" (2011? 😅) NAS hardware arrives today! Plan is to offload NAS duty to a low-power, ZFS, LSI HBA, 32GB ECC RAM box that even the most crusty BSD diehard would approve of while leaving the transcoding, facial recognition, etc, to a snappy modern machine #homelab

New nerd level unlocked: I just realized I comfort-install new distros on a 2010 laptop I salvaged from the trash pile at work when I'm stressed. This has been a rough couple months, but #xubuntu, #GhostBSD, and #antiX are all cool 😅

Freshening up the old #Peavey Patriot, one of the most underrated basses IMHO. After 20 years of playing, going to finally learn to #slap 😅 #bass #musiciansky

It happens 🤷‍♂️

Amped to announce the launch of @filthyrecs.bsky.social - the corporate streaming biz model doesn't work for musicians, limits creativity, and hurts music culture as artists try to game the algorithm instead of create art.

I got mine 😁🤙

Diplo, Space Gallery, Portland ME 2003(4?) He opened for RJD2. Wasn't my thing then, isn't my thing now, for artistic & other reasons. RJD2 crushed it tho 🔥🙌

Roy Ayers died?! Rest in peace to a true master 💔

Why pay for Botox when you could harvest your own botulism toxin from a defective can of beans? #Freedom 🇺🇸 (sarcasm, pls don't)
