Bob Stanley of Saint Etienne has posted a lovely tribute to Dave Ball on his Patreon touching on how it influenced his own work. Worth supporting.

Soft Cell's Dave Ball has died. Rest in peace.

Hello good people of Bluesky. If you followed me on Twitter, you’ll know I’ve been documenting my sporadic trips to my mum’s house by documenting bric-a-brac, old technology which has been hoarded, and a lot of antiquated studio gear, and I thought I share it again here. I’m at my mum’s house…

Stanley Kwan is producing my movie, yet we are still short of funds. What an exciting time to be a filmmaker!

Happy 35th anniversary to Behaviour, the quintessential autumnal album.

Today on the RA Mix, a slice of electronic music history. RA.1009 is Shinichi Atobe's first-ever live recording, taped at Tokyo club WWW in 2023. Lock in for 58 minutes of transportive dub techno and deep electronics.

"NO KINGS"? Sorry, my NO has 2 kings, 1 queen, and a god.

Lovely video for the song.

During this hot, difficult summer I took a trip to the largest arcade in the world and fell in love with the art of the video game marquee. So I created a little gallery: dansinker.com/posts/2025-0...

I didn't expect to search for "taylor swift pixies" today.

To quote Marisa, the wife of #JDTwitch, in her post: "the most meaningful way to honour Keith is to keep playing his music, sharing your memories, and supporting the causes he cared about." In this thread, please find a series of links that will allow you to do just that. Please share widely:

What a joyful find in Oxfam for just £5.00 - this rare 1990 heavily illustrated catalogue of work by graphic designer Vaughan Oliver of 4AD

Obligatory post as a Korean person who happens to be alive and online during Meta Connect 2025: yes, you do want to grate a pear if you want make good bulgogi-style beef dish.

Anyone have more info on the visuals? The article makes it sound like audience members were being live-doxxed, but the labels shown in the video are classifiers like "Resourceful" and "Imaginative". Are they even doing classification, or simply attaching random labels to faces as commentary?

gang I always feel weird about putting this stuff out there but I’m still cutting it a little close this week, so if you’re looking to pick up some new music I would greatly appreciate your consideration! 🙏🏻✨ quandary.bandcamp.com/album/kiba-t...

A lovely block of low-key spiritual jazz grooves that I’ve been enjoying this week. Thanks, @tylerwilcox.bsky.social for sharing this a few days back. #jazzsky #newmusic loveallday.bandcamp.com/album/volume-2

Two turntables and a microphone.

I'm a world away from Helsinki but I'm reposting to say that is an excellent choice of t-shirt.

Bad news for Vimeo users.

Monthly listening, September 2025: Saint Etienne From This Is Radio Etienne to The Last Time, a discography chock full of favorites since college days. I'll miss them very much.

Sadly I'll likely miss this talk by a legend. "Matthew Carter is a type designer whose work can be seen on your computer (Georgia & Verdana) and in NYT, Boston Globe, SI, and all over Yale University. He has received just about every possible recognition the graphic design industry has to offer."

adidas x nts x arsenal release was made specifically for me

#JustArrived thought I’d go all-in on Saint Etienne’s 13th and final (😭😭😭) album. The singles so far have been amongst their best IMO. Back in a couple of hours.

New & final @bobpetesarah.bsky.social album out this week. I'll miss them so.

Monthly listening, August 2025: Four Tet Better very, very late than never. Four Tet's music has been helpful throughout the year whenever the going got tough. I'll spend some time today to organize and listen to the many rips of his recent live sets saved on my laptop.

What if it happens on Bandcamp Friday, I will probably go crazy and buy absolutely *everything* on my wishlist.

What a set. Magnificent. Underworld in London for Boiler Room. youtu.be/rAOHJqJMYDA?...

Last night before heading home to the US after eight months of being overseas. I wish I felt happier, but unforunately I've decided I need to travel again in a couple of weeks due to family issues, so that's bringing me down a few notches.

I'm declaring this a 1994 kinda weekend

Dates for our LAST EVER North America tour. No drama, but it's a miracle Moose has agreed to fly, and though I love crossing the pond, it's exhausting to organise and financial risks are overwhelming. All that said, we're mad excited so hurrah and see you there. ❤️ Tix: mikistuff.com/live

I’m a firm believer that with SHIN GODZILLA returning to theaters, Toho should also re-release the figurines of the kaiju giving apologetic press conferences.

Shameless plug: last month, I was asked to contribute a guest mix for KUCI 88.9 FM with a Canadian friend. We've just uploaded the mix on YouTube! Featuring the Orb, KLF, Coldcut, Autechre, Squarepusher, Beth Orton, Woob, Kraftwerk and more. Please check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZzj...

Of all the things that have happened to us in 35 years, hearing Winona Ryder say Saint Etienne "totally rescued me while I was going through a hard time" is up there. Bless her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfjX...

I can't believe you weirdos don't have all of your failed projects memorialized in a sad tiny graveyard that you can look at on a fake beach in a very expensive headset. Weirdos.
