Some positive news 🙏 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Well, tonight I’m chilling to Jabu. Their ‘Soft and Gatherable Star’ album was my most listened to (whilst awake, anyway) record of the year, apparently.

Winding down to some Acetone tonight. Not sure how they passed me by until @talktopeters.bsky.social recently introduced them to me.

Late night listening to Hobo Cubes. Certainly worth investigating if you’re into weird ambient music. Perfect way to end a fairly chill day.

That soundtrack 🥰

Penultimate show of the year for me on Friday, at Green Door Store with M U M M Y and Crayola Lectern, plus a special Spratleys acoustic set! I’ve had the pleasure of working with these bands for many years, it’ll be like putting on a pair of comfy slippers!! #cardiacs #spratleys

Fun night at East Sussex Psychedelic Film Club! We screened Barbarella, which is hilarious camp fun. Andrew O’Neill opened proceedings with some surreal comedy; I got to make them look trippy! #videofeedback #videoart

For a minute BHAFC were third in the Premiership. Fuksake.

What a fantastic weekend with Sabres of Paradise, both amazing gigs, but last night in Brighton was particularly poignant. A pleasure and an honour to add colours and shapes!

Sabres of Paradise (Live).

I had an amazing time providing visuals for Sabres of Paradise at Drumsheds yesterday, an absolute joy to get to plug into that screen! Pity I couldn’t drag it along to tonight’s show in Brighton (though Concorde2 does have a nice new LED wall for me to plug into) #thesabresofparadise #drumsheds

If there’s one album that reminds me of this time of the year, it has to be ‘Maim That Tune’ by Fila Brazillia. I bought my copy during a time of great upheaval. Still a very emotive album for me, but in a positive and reflective way. youtu.be/uvNkKmROfKs?...

Oof, new toy!

I made a video for my old buddy Danalogue (Comet Is Coming/Soccer 96) ‘Sonic Hypnosis’ is out now on @castlesinspace.bsky.social

It’s the weekend! Burning Sky ‘Robust Porter’ is a great way to start. Fingers crossed I remain equally robust.

I have another show, this time supporting the lovely Colin and Malka from @immersionhq.bsky.social

They came, they blew the roof off Ally Pally, they left. At one of their biggest headline gigs to date, Overmono were as exhilarating as ever

Lewes Psych Fest returns! Tickets go live at noon!

Lewes, Bonfire capital of the world.

Five years ago today, @innerstrings.bsky.social filmed this beautifully simple video for Cheval Sombre’s ‘It’s Not Time’ in Lewes. A couple hundred miles away, I saw the same sunset after my mum’s socially distanced funeral. It remains one of the most profoundly moving things I’ve ever seen.

What a weekend! I had a blast doing visuals for Fat Dog, Silverwingkiller, Mount Palomar, Just For Fun, and the brilliant Working Men’s Club at Aviva Studios in Manchester… one of the best sounding live rooms I’ve ever been in.

#dayofthedog Working Mens Club were superb, yet again Never disappointed

Two people who I could listen to all day; Rik Mayall and Robert Smith. Yours?

Colour vinyl question: what’s a colour you love or hate for a record?

Every now and then, I have a late night binge on Low records, and I’m reduced to tears. There’s something deeply moving even before the sadness of losing Mimi.

Thirty five years ago! I’m listening to Lush now, and I’m getting transported back to a great time in my life (only to get snatched back into the now). Wish I could spend longer absorbed in those early 90s memories.

Looks like Overmono smashed their show in MCR last night. Always gives me great pleasure to see my video work on those big screens!

Great review of Tuesday’s show! Excuse me whilst I give myself a pat on the back! www.brightonandhovenews.org/2025/10/17/e...

One of the scariest things I’ve done in quite some time. I have huge respect for anyone who performs onstage alone.

Don’t forget this tomorrow night; the wonderful Death and Vanilla are at Brighton Komedia, and I’m supporting as Malaphors; my new AV project! I’m putting the finishing touches to the set today. It’ll be a mixture of styles; I wanted it to be all drone, but somehow a drum machine has crept in!

Another busy weekend ahead! Aside from a mountain of video work, Saturday pm I’m spinning tunes and oil wheels at Abyss Taproom in Lewes, then last minute preparations for my debut live show as Malaphors, supporting @deathandvanilla.bsky.social at Brighton Komedia. I’m packing my brown trousers.

Busy weekend ahead, firstly with Richard Norris in Birmingham on Saturday evening, then back in Brighton on Sunday evening at the GDS, throwing light at Max Rompler. Hoping to see some familiar faces at both shows.

Well, this is exciting. I’m going to be supporting Death & Vanilla @deathandvanilla.bsky.social at the Komedia on the 14th October as my new music project ‘malaphors’.

The Albert in Brighton currently has Titanic Plum Porter on tap. Always a pleasure to sink one of those!

🔵🔵 NEW RELEASE!! 🔵🔵 The Early Years have released their first new material in almost a decade. New single ‘The River’ is out now on all digital platforms and flows somewhere between Eno at his most expansive and James Holden’s elemental techno...

Here’s a clip from the visualiser by @innerstrings.bsky.social. Watch the full thing and listen to the single here: linktr.ee/tey3 Look out for a limited physical release tomorrow... 👀

Richard Norris (The Grid/Beyond The Wizards Sleeve) [With live visuals by Innerstrings] & Locust/Mark Van Hoen & Stone Anthem will be showcasing their audio/video delights on the 04th of October... tickets here: www.skiddle.com/g/theseventh... @mrrichardnorris.bsky.social @innerstrings.bsky.social

It’s not very often I can say that I ‘did lights’ for a band, but last night I threw some beams at White Magic For Lovers at their sold out show at St Pancras Old Church. It’s amazing what you can do with four LED lights, two projectors and a haze machine! What a great evening!

A very special evening at The Albert watching two thirds of Kitchens of Distinction perform together onstage for the first time in thirty years. David McAlmont appearing onstage for ‘Mad as Snow’ added extra wow-factor. There were a few early 90s music heroes in the audience too. Was it a dream?

NEW RELEASE! Sister Ray Davies’ new single ‘Rowans’ is out now on all digital platforms. The second cut from their debut album ‘Holy Island’ – out November 14 – mixes the spaciness of dub, fuzz guitar, shoegaze sheen and delay pedal disco over three thrilling minutes.

Psychedelic freakery with Gong at Manchester Psych Fest, who better to open proceedings? Naturally, @innerstrings.bsky.social visuals upped the vibe!

I think this has to have been the best night out ever; certainly the best ever Monday night! Thirty years ago today, Richie Hawtin at the Escape, now known as Patterns. Brain cells were sacrificed.

Found myself sitting next to three guys called Jim last night. We pondered what the collective noun for Jim would be; I suggested ‘a jamboree’ or possibly therefore ‘a jimboree’! This happened recently with three Garys… ‘a Bushell’ was the best we could think of.

After being premiered by @huwstephensdj.bsky.social on his BBC Radio 6 Music show yesterday, the first single ‘Aidan’ is out now on all digital platforms and there’s a gorgeous video by @innerstrings.bsky.social.

I never got to see Ozzy or Black Sabbath perform live. However, my parents saw them at Plumpton in 1970, and without going into too much detail, I was born nine months later. Does that count?

👂👂

I have a new video out this week! It’s a beauty, even if I do say so myself!
