Just exporting my latest track to WAV and go this pop-up!! WTF!!

It's been just over a month since my third album was released. I thought it was at least as good as the second (the positive reaction to which exceeded my expectations) but it has basically bombed. It's not that people are listening and deciding they don't like it, it's just that nobody is 1/3

Message to my 🇺🇸 friends: Y’all got to stop deadnaming the Gulf of America — and get on with dealing with the real problems #SayNotoFascism

Resfeber is the track from the latest album with which I struggled the most. Multiple changes of arrangement, and seemingly hundreds of mixes, until I finally found what I was after. It’s notably more ‘experimental’ compared to the other tracks #ambient

Apparently I’m supposed to keep up the promo activity even after the album is out 🤷🏻‍♂️ In that case, wander over here: linktr.ee/evenlode

Always an honour to be featured in the esteemed Trust The Doc blog. And here I am again in edition 💯 #ambientmusic

Still time to catch Paramedic Jukebox Club IN FULL on Hoodoo Radio. 4pm (GMT) today and tomorrow #ambientmusic

Apple Music for Artists’ “Milestones” giving me another much needed ego boost 🇺🇿

Check this out, tomorrow night!

For six more days, to celebrate the Paramedic Jukebox Club release this week, ALL the albums are now just £2 each on Bandcamp. Or get 25% off the whole catalogue evenlode.bandcamp.com

New album out today in all the usual places. Electronic/orchestral, ambient, beatless type stuff. linktr.ee/evenlode

Strictly speaking, it’s already out in places like Australia and Japan, since it’s already “tomorrow” there. Rest of you will have to patiently wait…

I made it known to the Trump team that they were NOT authorised to use my music at his inauguration. He seems to have honoured this request. Also: check out this cool merch!

Very pleased to have written something inspired by evenlode’s poignant, beautiful new album.

Excited to announce that the new album has an accompanying short story by my good friend @speranza62.bsky.social

Not far from evenlode HQ is the Henry Moore Foundation. This is the rear view of this very nice piece (the rear, because you can only see it from the front if you pay to get in…)

Just a few more days and the third album gets its release… #ambient

New album all ready for release! #ambientmusic #ambient

Menacing structure at Dovercourt. Very “War of the Worlds”

Ludwig Wittgenstein gets a mention on the forthcoming album (out next week), so I thought the least I could do was visit his resting place. The Ascension Parish Burial Ground in Cambridge #ambient #philosophy

Mist in the Peak District

Introducing the completed fiftieth Starter Pack with all the bands, orchestras, choirs, independent labels, and musicians I can find on Blue Sky! Please have a look, follow some or all of them, and share this pack here and in other places! go.bsky.app/Lzwttmf

New album all ready for release! #ambientmusic #ambient

It’s been a bit frosty 🥶

I posted this on Threads, but because fact checking has been removed, nobody over there believed me. So take my word for it, or wait until 22 January and check Spotify yourselves #ambientmusic

Local paper jumping the gun somewhat on the next album’s release (it’s scheduled for January 22nd), but nevertheless grateful for the plug. More news shortly…

A little further along the North Norfolk coast, Holme Dunes National Nature Reserve, just before sunset. Convinced I have some form of low-level synaesthesia, as I can ‘hear’ pictures like this (and have had various levels of success translating that to #ambient recordings)

Row boat that's seen better days, Brancaster Staithe, on the North Norfolk coast

Another one from Norfolk. The River Thurne, approaching dusk.

Another derelict building. But look at that sky! No doubt that cloud formation has a special name. Anyone know?

Orford Ness has been in the news today because of its “secret seals” 🦭 I took this picture a few years ago, so doubt if much of what remained of the building then is still intact

Although there's the promise of sunshine to come, the cold seems to want to linger. Like the frost at the church of St Mary's, Tintern, Wales

I don’t often spam you with promo stuff, but it’s #bandcampfriday and both evenlode albums are currently HALF PRICE at evenlode.bandcamp.com so it would be rude not to tell you…

An abandoned chair on the hillside. The Weald, near Goudhurst, Kent

Somebody punched a hole through the wall of an abandoned house in Pembrokeshire, and someone else came along and framed it. Definitely a "Led Zeppelin IV album sleeve" vibe going on.

A first December Monday and another random one of these. Please follow: @stephenmcdaid.bsky.social @mattsteady.bsky.social @ajaynemusic.bsky.social @philcoopermusic.bsky.social @folkpolice.com @abrasivetrees.bsky.social @booksandtunes.bsky.social @vi4rtual.bsky.social @evenlode.bsky.social

More “seaside town in winter” melancholia. Taken a few years ago, pre-COVID. Are those two still together? Together or not, let’s hope they are both happy. Anyone familiar with the south coast of England will know exactly where this was taken

Something quite melancholy about a British seaside town in the winter. This is Bournemouth

Crumbling render reveals an eclectic collection of building materials. Connemara, County Galway, Ireland

I have no explanation for this - but respect to the people of Papua New Guinea! 🇵🇬

Luskentyre, on the Isle of Harris 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿, was voted one of the best beaches in the UK. I’d argue it’s THE best. It made such an impression on me that I made a track that attempts to capture the atmosphere of the place. It’s on my latest album open.spotify.com/track/7b8A1i...

Pic of my home town, Edmonton, North London. Pretty, ain’t it?

If anyone has lost their Airpods around The Lizard, Devon I've put them on the roof of the lighthouse outbuilding for you to collect at your leisure

Calanais Standing Stones on Lewis. I've drawn a lot of inspiration from the Hebrides and Orkney Islands neolithic monuments (e.g. Ring of Brodgar from my 2021 album, Burning Ship). These mysterious things were placed there long before the Pyramids of Egypt were built - which is quite something.

No doubt this iZotope software is very useful for customers in Warsaw, but I wonder if they are considering releasing a version for other Eastern European languages, or even English? 🇵🇱 🇷🇴 🇭🇺 🇪🇪 🇺🇦

Reminder to take a look at the Starter Packs from @florgoth.bsky.social if you’re wanting to find a bunch of interesting independent musicians to follow. There’s 10 packs so far. Spread the word! 🎶

IT’S RELEASE DAY! Which means I’ve either just been let out of Wormwood Scrubs, or the new album has dropped… Give it a listen: Darker Patterns open.spotify.com/album/4ba7Jz... #ambient #music
