SPICE IS THE VARIETY OF LIFE

Get Out [2025 Edition] by Pita (Editions Mego) pitaemego.bandcamp.com/album/get-ou...

Actually starting to get somewhere towards “done”

This came out yesterday on @editionsmego.bsky.social - a collection of live recordings taken from three performances this year in Berlin, Vienna and Copenhagen. finlayshakespeare.bandcamp.com/album/public...

You know Spotify is run by shitheads because I'm willing to bet somewhere in that company they let this happen on purpose just for the bantz, just for a news item where they'd try and look a bit edgy, but I mean they just come off as the least inspiring bunch of cunts you could possibly imagine.

Does one lose Whamageddon if it’s a cover? (🤮)

Perfection is the enemy of progression. Progression is the antidote to misery.

Why _anyone_ working in the music industry still has an active Spotify subscription is beyond me. Why any of the above would then WILFULLY AND GLADLY PROMOTE said platform is utterly fucking ridiculous. Turkeys / Christmas.

Cheeky Cheeky Chappy

The whole record is fantastic, and it’s an honour to be part of it! Listen below!

NOTHING BAD CAN HAPPEN IT CAN ONLY GOOD HAPPEN

Luke Knott has some odd computer noises, filtered and downsampled to highlight some sharp edges, arranged in abstract forms. But I'd still say the music's friendly about it! There's frequent activity with a purposeful direction. Even when the logic is obscure, I know it's there, I never feel lost.

En route to Vienna for this weekend’s @editionsmego.bsky.social 30th anniversary celebrations at @unsafeandsounds.bsky.social! Come get your head twisted at WUK Projektraum!

Monumental only due to the three decades of constant fresh, original and ~innovative~ ART that (Editions) Mego has given the world. Nowhere near enough time to fit everyone in… more about that soon…

Anyone else find PayPal to be almost unusable these days? Website graphics don’t load. Address updates don’t work. Bank accounts supposedly need verification, but verification process doesn’t work. I’ve just turned off PayPal in as many webshops as I can here, opting for Square instead 🤷‍♂️

Official, not a joke. I wonder how he feels about UR.

We’re gonna need to start distinguishing between Artificial Intelligence and Actualised Intelligence “Yeah yeah I used AI, I thought about the problem and solved it myself”

Calm down Keir, not in public, etc.

I say this with love, but the main danger in making modular synth music seems to be that if you're not careful you very quickly wind up making what sound like planetarium soundtracks

I’m back on the airwaves tonight for SWU from 11pm UK time. Expect 30 mins of techno etc. followed by a 90 minute selection of some my fave @zovietfrance.org tracks. Local to #Bristol? Tune into 103.7FM. Elsewhere? Head to: www.rinse.fm/shows/finlay...

DISENFRANCHISED YOUTH (signed to Capitol)

Heads up anyone expecting PayPal payments at the moment (lol hi Bandcamp Friday) - a bunch of transactions are not showing in users’ accounts. It’s a widely reported issue, PayPal are supposedly fixing it (lol)

HOT GOSSIP FROM THE OASIS FRONT LINE IT’S ALL SHIT

Good pub chat last night: “Nah we don’t do nuts mate, we don’t do any bar snacks. There’s a KFC up the road though” The world is doomed.

I roasted these peanuts dry mate

LONG SHOT! Do I know anyone with a Roland CR 78 or 68 which I could hire / fix-up and borrow for a while?

Spotify is a horrible platform in so many ways. People should consider if they're ok using it. We use Tidal in the shop for streaming and are really happy with it. Some of the staff use Qobuz at home. Spotify sounds terrible and their ethics are disgusting.

call me crazy but I don't think we should.

You don’t need to wear all black to enjoy electronic music.

Still amazed how much more “interesting” analogue synths sound vs their softsynth emulation counterparts. Did an hour or two of stem replacement just now and there’s still _no contest_

RIP youtu.be/xYc4DT18EJg?...

GEMA going after every single SuperBooth exhibitor is fucking lunacy

Oh mannnn just read he’s passed away. Ripping Agharta on the train NOW.

"Electronic Concert Not Very Amusing" -Boston Globe, February 27 1966

The Chicane vs Calvin Harris BS is further proof that electronic music needs to become dweeby again

The Green Party don’t get as much media coverage as Reform because the continuation of civilised human life on the planet isn’t as interesting as cunts.

Xero brute forcing email address autocorrects is some of the dumbest shit I am yet to encounter in bookkeeping. MAKING TAX DIGITAL HERE WE GOOOOO
