There’s a new lawsuit against Spotify alleging pay-to-play promotion with their Discovery Mode tool. We need transparency from streaming services and an end to payola - we need the Living Wage for Musicians Act!

I’m Jewish. I lived in New York for a decade. I am very, very concerned about antisemitism. I have no doubt that Zohran Mamdani would fight to protect my life and my rights. I have no doubt the ADL has entirely failed to protect me and my family from fascists. I know where my allegiance lies.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a non-Jewish Democratic politician who has spoken to Jews with more respect and empathy than Mamdani. The fact that many Jewish establishment orgs are going after him while staying relatively mum on resurgent Nazism is a disaster, both for American Jews and in general.

Are there any UK tapers out there? Or folks who know where to find such things? To accompany my Pat Thomas Interview (coming Nov 15 on WFMU) I'd love a download of this show, if anyone's holding. NATURAL INFORMATION SOCIETY + PAT THOMAS TUE 28 OCT Thanks! 🙏

Believe it or not: but for music like this it's likely we would never get the Instrumental-Psychedelic-Jazz-Funk brilliance of David Axelrod's solo LPs of the late 1960s-early 1970s. Axelrod produced hits for Capitol, so many that they gave him carte blanche to do his thing youtu.be/PA59XvgwGyQ?...

RIP, Joe Byrd, mastermind behind two mind-bending classics: The United States Of America (1968) + Joe Byrd And The Field Hippies' The American Metaphysical Circus (1969). Get 'em both in all formats. He was true one-off, loved by Broadcast, Portishead, & many others. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYAk...

Very grateful for this rich response to my book!

India’s city of Bengaluru is one of the fastest growing cities in the world, driven by an IT boom and rapid urban expansion. But this growth has come at a cost. Snakes have lost their natural habitat and are now forced to live alongside humans. aje.io/snakes

Reminder that Spotify has still not gotten rid of their ICE ads. They think they can just stay silent without answering to the public. Let’s show them how wrong they are, let’s hit them where it hurts! These corporations don’t understand anything unless it hurts their bottom line.

This recent find is the soundtrack to Melvin Van Peebles’ stage musical and #film “Don’t Play Us Cheap”.There are several instrumental tracks with trumpet & saxophone solos but none of the musicians are listed.Does anyone know what musicians played on this album? #vinylrecordcollection #blues #jazz

just saw Herbie Hancock at the Strathmore. played almost exclusively progressive jazz, went ~1 hour over time, much of the overage stemming from a nearly 40m lecture on evolution, compassion, & futurism done entirely via vocoder, and saved almost all the accessible fusion for post-lecture. the GOAT!
