Enjoyed a sunny gig at The Apothecary Tap in Banbury yesterday! To everybody that spoke to me afterwards, thank you for chatting, and for sticking around for my set. It was nice to do a gig that supported BARKS charity. 💜 Thanks to Rich for this photo! 📷

I forgot it was Bandcamp Friday this week and bought a bunch of music a few days ago. Whoops! 😆 Oh well, at least I bought it. Anyway, I'm gonna list what I bought. 😁

This year I've had a few firsts! First feature on Bandcamp's New & Notable and first ever plays on BBC Radio 6. First headline gig in Oxford. 🥹 I am quite hard on myself and have been awfully hard on myself this year (not sure why). I need to acknowledge stuff that has gone/is going well. 😁

New & Notable: The UK artist drapes layered vocal harmonies and art-rock instrumentation in wistful lo-fi synths to moody, mesmerizing results.

CDs are here and issues with the streaming versions are fixed, release is tomorrow! #oxfordmusic #oxfordelectronicmusic #remixes

'Fungus' got played on BBC 6 Music last night. 😁 A first for me!

Electronic music is a genre that was started and shaped by women, so on International Women's Day, here are some Bandcamp recommendations for women making some of the best electronic music you can get today. 🧵

now playing on THE PERIPHERY on NOISEBOX RADIO: Cholly – Fungus (self-released) cholly.bandcamp.com || instagram.com/chollymusic || @chollymusic.bsky.social

I am bad at using this app. 😆 Next gig is on 13th Feb at Daltons in Brighton. So pleased to be included in this line-up 💜🎧🎶

@chollymusic.bsky.social released a new single btw, tied to an EP coming in 2026: cholly.bandcamp.com/album/octopoda

I did a little live set thing for Halloween and then forgot to post it till today, whoops. Tried out some new ideas. Still ironing things out.

It's the best thing when someone says they have listened to your music for hours. 🥹

@bandcamp.com isn't just for #BandcampFriday so do support these great artists @alicehubble.bsky.social @archieislander.bsky.social @bunnyhausen.bsky.social @chollymusic.bsky.social @clairhotgem.bsky.social @hattiecooke.com @katesattler.bsky.social @kaylapainter.bsky.social

One of the most relaxed music video shoots I've done (for my own videos anyway). Thanks to everyone who helped! 💜

NHS 111 have been so helpful today. It was quick to get through and they said a GP would call within 2 hours. The GP called within 2 minutes, assessed my symptoms and booked me an appointment to see someone in person. 👍 D

Arts and craftsss

Ended up taking a 3 hour nap today even after 2 coffees and a full night of sleep. I guess my body is very tired lol

I'm having the worst flare up of my RSI in ages, after a long stretch with very well managed symptoms. I don't know what to do with myself. 😅 There were so many things I was going to do on my days off but now I can't do them.

I'm looking for retro landline phones (they don't need to work, they're just for props) so let me know if you have any lying around that you don't use 😂 📞🎶🎶📹 it's for a music video idea I have 💜 #creative

Lots of people talking about CDs today and why they are the best format... (yeah they are 100%) Copies of my new CD are still available here: armaturesmusic.bandcamp.com/album/osprey ..and thank you to those of you who already bagged a copy, you are the best! #CDs #Albums #musicsky #synthsky

It was therapeutic this morning to get some of my ideas for visuals down on paper.

I've been waking up at 3am, bombarded by flashes of colour, images and sounds in my head. I love it when I'm feeling this inspired, but it's not a very practical time to experience the inspiration. 😂

armaturesmusic.bandcamp.com/album/osprey This album by @armaturesmusic.bandcamp.com is lovely!

The perfect bird feeder doesn't exi--

My friend Rosie sent me some saxophone and I am feeling so inspired. She's so talented.

I have so much music to go through and finish. 😅 I am buzzed about it but I keep hopping from project to project and being very indecisive. My friend recorded some saxophone for a track of mine and I'm very excited. I felt I couldn't do the vocals until I had the saxophone.

Can't believe we went up Mount Etna today. So awesome 😁

What's your level of concern on a scale of zero to this picture of my cat?

Really enjoyed playing at Are You Listening Festival today. I had so much fun during my set. Shout out to everyone that chatted to me afterwards too! 😁 #readingmusic #aylefestival #areyoulistening #livemusic

My partner, Conor, also makes music. Today he released a soundtrack he made for a game! I love it! 💜 the-zoomers.bandcamp.com/album/wordha.... #newmusic #electronicmusic #soundtrack

Hachiku, The Bobo & me at The Library Pub 🎶🎵

Buzzed to be supporting Hachiku this Saturday 💜🎶🎵It's in Oxford! Come along if you can!

Just seen a cup with 'I run on coffee' written on it. There was a teabag in it. Made me laugh. It's not that funny. 😅😆

April's Jupiter Room show is avaialble on my Mixcloud page for your streaming pleasure www.mixcloud.com/TheJupiterRo... Amazing lineup of ace tunes

I dreamt that I was working on some sound design for a live set. I was creating a rack to hold objects that I had sampled sounds from (pots, pans etc). Every time I stretched a waveform, the object I'd gotten the sound from stretched too.

Now streaming to twitch! Come and join me! www.twitch.tv/chollymusic

Anyone else suffering with bad hay fever yet? 🤧

I am quite good at putting myself in someone else's shoes until they say that they're not really into music. I cannot imagine how anyone can get through life without it being there every day.

Reading has been soothing me this year. 18 books in 2025 so far. I didn't realise how much I missed it.

Our 100th show. First broadcast on @getradiouk.bsky.social 20 Mar 25. Special guest @eddieargos.bsky.social + new music from @chollymusic.bsky.social #BethanyWeimers #Auctioneers #MysteryBiscuit #In-FlightMovie + @divorcehq.bsky.social #Terrorvision & more www.mixcloud.com/MeltingPotEy...

Normalise watching wildlife documentaries on mute while listening to Sixteen Oceans by Four Tet at 2am

I've read 15 books so far this year. 🙃😅🤓

Was gonna get myg guitar out for my days off, but it's looking like that might be a no go, thanks to RSI. 🙄
