#Musicsky #synthsky crowd. Thoughts please. I made a track very different to my usual style. It features a very prominent light hearted sample of an interview from a news report. Do I: 1) try to contact the person in the report 2) just release it & do the "ask for forgiveness not permission" thing

Awake before the rest of the house, so made a coffee and put on Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden, while watching the birds in the garden

Another of our electronic music community in Cornwall has a new album out for #BandcampFriday (And he actually knows what he's doing on the Elektron kit, unlike me) gorrangarras.bandcamp.com/album/poplim...

Got a few evenings free, so going to dive back into this little loopy box of love/hate. Elektron Octatrack #synthsky #musicsky

Never though going to Parkrun would be considered an act of resistance, but now that it is I'm going twice this weekend! Sticking two fingers to the far right's favourite sliver medalist Sharron Davies is always great.

Were those USAF B1 bombers we just spotted overhead in #Cornwall? Been a lot of heavy flights overhead this last month.

Probably because you and Chris Mason can't stop banging on about, Laura. @bbclaurak.bsky.social #PMQs

Not saying things like war and AI and inflation aren't really important, but... Our civilisation-sustaining habitat is at risk of collapse, and every kilogram of carbon we choose to add to the atmosphere makes that collapse more likely www.theguardian.com/environment/...

@worriedaboutsatan.bsky.social Thanks for the heads up. These arrived last week @normanrecords.com

As the studio is having a mini refurb I finally got these two reintegrated back into the setup. (Handy bonus sequencer w/CV outs on the Moog DFAM too) DAW has new templates for routing. Always nice to be able to send any signal to any gear relatively easily. #musicsky #synthsky #ambient #drone

These two were playing together very nicely over the weekend. #drone #synthsky #musicsky #ambient

Always good to see one of the artists from our “Affinity” compilation album releasing new material. Check it out 👇

Fenner's shows are always great. Dig in.

I try not to comment on appearances but as a prematurely greying male myself I must concede the Czech president is one very distinguished and strikingly suave looking gentlemen.

HEY - AMERICANS IN CONGRESS - ENOUGH APPEASEMENT. GET THAT FUCKING DOZY NAZI SCUMBAG AWAY FROM THAT BIG BUTTON - NOW!

Pretty persistently frustrating that enviro opposition to data centres get clumsily dismissed as "NIMBY" when, as you can see here, it's well-evidenced and packed to the brim with real-world examples of material harm. And GP goes further than most in pointing out the end-goals of the system:

OK for fun: top funniest tweet ever? I am torn between "moon's haunted" and "Denise I was at your wedding."

THIS IS SERIOUS❗️ Singer-Songwriters & Musicians Take Heed ‼️ Video: Singer-Songwriter Murphy Campbell from North Carolina

First heard Emahoye Tsege Maryam Gebru's music 5-6 yrs ago and became obsessed by it, but thought she passed away years ago. Today I found she only passed in 2023, & this clip of her feels strangely reassuring, like watching footage of a lost relative or old friend. m.youtube.com/watch?v=6K48...

Can’t think of a better soundtrack for your stroll😉 monochromemotif.bandcamp.com/album/affini...

Artists like Angine De Poitrine are how we as artists beat AI. The LLMs just won't get, won't know how to mimic it. Maybe this starts a push to make more interesting and challenging art & music. EDM Producer YT is fun, but AI can do that easy. Splice producers are first in line for redundancy.

Grown-up Americans really voted for that guy to represent them? He's a sex offender, a misogynist, a liar, a racist, an idiot, a conman, a thief, a bully, a coward - the absolute worst of humanity. And they chose him to lead them...TWICE! Now look at the state of it all. What were they thinking?

Dawlish looking lovely in the sunshine today. Glorious day for an electronic music inspired outing to #synthsouthwest #synthsky #musicsky

Looking forward to heading to this new "local" synth event tomorrow. Should be a nice way to spend a day. #synthsky #musicsky

So proud to have been a part of this wonderful project. Head over to monochromemotif.bandcamp.com to check this and all the label's other wonderful releases

Big reverb on the (right) kick drum. Yes. Ive gone back to those days.

And the civilised world wants nothing to do with them. Rot.

Got the analog synth corner back up and running last night, with a new comprehensive DAW template for all I/O (including very useful editor plugins for the Moog and the Roland Alpha Juno and clock pulse generators for trigger ins). #synthsky #musicsky

Morning! Here's a link to last night's #electronicears www.mixcloud.com/fennerpearso...

Late to it. Watching Adolescence. Even in a series where every moment is exceptional, the interview episode stands out as one of the finest bits of TV I've ever seen. Absolutely incredible.

So, no Machina Bristronica this year. Shame, it's a great celebration of electronic music. #synth #bristol #synthsky #musicsky

@prosynthnetwork.bsky.social Apologies if I spoke out of turn just now. Wasn't my intention. Really looking forward to the event! Thanks for arranging it!

Looking forward to catching Matthew C Whitaker in Cornwall tonight. Can thoroughly recommend a listen if you like good songwriting with a strong dose of nostalgic 60s cinema soundtrack production. "Songs for the weary"...yeah that's for me right now matthewcwhitaker.bandcamp.com/album/songs-...

@3squaresgyratory.bsky.social ♥️

Congratulations Hannah Spencer. Great to see the Gorton and Denton electorate rejecting the Farage & Trump GB News far right agenda.

What a result!! Huge congratulations to the amazing Hannah Spencer - everyone in Gorton and Denton has just made history. This result shows @greenparty.org.uk can win anywhere, that the politics of hope can win over the politics of hate & there is no longer any such thing as a Labour safe seat 💚

Hope, not Hate. Thank you Gorton & Denton.

Funny how an "independent" group nobody has ever heard of, the Democracy Volunteers (and not the Electoral Commission or official UK body) suddenly turn up in Gorton & Denton too-close-to-call election, spend all day at polling stations not raising concerns, then call foul at 10pm. Who funds them?

Just trying the Bandcamp embed features with a quiet piano piece from the "Etudes & Ambiences" album #Ambient #musicsky #composer constantlittleghost.bandcamp.com/album/etudes...

Horrific. The business of modern day concentration camps. Taxpayer funded. Private contractor profit. Individuals and businesses are actively involved in facilitating human suffering. If you voted Trump, you voted for this

Been a long time since I saw @mogwai.scot play so it was great to hear them fill that Exeter hall with such majestic noise.

I would love to see the wonderful Sam (Look Mum No Computer) become a household name. And behind the very charismatic and entertaining persona is clearly a very, very clever person. I love his brain! Synthsky Musicsky Eurovision youtu.be/LWqImNULtao?...

Nice one Sam! Perfect choice! This could send him into the stratosphere and I couldn't be happier for him. Get that synth bike in the stage! BBC News - Electronic artist and YouTuber Look Mum No Computer to represent UK at Eurovision www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Local racist shitbags been quietly poking these through letterboxes. Next time you want to spread this AI slop fascist bullshit in my Cornwall community, find the nerve to at least rattle the letterbox. #racistsnotwelcome #i♥️myneighbours
