Brian Wilson recorded a cover version of What a Wonderful World in the mid-1990s under the guidance of Van Dyke Parks. This is beautiful - and they didn't even put it on their album. youtu.be/1NhVf2VtxMA

I'm 100% serious - one of my favourite songs from the 2000s is the Neptunes remix of The Call by the Backstreet Boys. youtu.be/I6azzNTr6xE

Best villain in cinema.

:zoviet*france: has been doing a weekly hour-long ambient radio show and podcast since 2012, and all 728 episodes are still readily available thanks to the magic of rss zovietfrance.podbean.com

I’ve had music rejected by my aggregator because they said it was AI generated and some platforms wouldn’t accept it 🤷

When we hear a new piece of music that sounds polished and generic, we now tend to think, "This is AI". Its agency is being pushed in incredibly aggressive ways and our perception is actively involved in it.

For its 30th anniversary, I wrote a critical reflection about a record from the 1990s that had a major impact on me and remains one of my favourites, Roots by Sepultura. skug.at/sepultura-de...

Can't get enough of this 1970s masterpiece.

Next Phirnis album is ready. Would love to do a limited run of tapes. ♥️

Harsh noise wall has been invaded by fake fans and cynical viral campaigns​. Here’s how deep it all goes.

Love this performance by The Rita - it's all harsh noise wall by numbers until virtuoso musician McKinlay puts on the goggles for some underwater action. youtu.be/TD39L-6SPrY 🦈🌊

Crossover fanfictions be like...

Brian Wilson passed away 12 months ago.

this is gospel it should be more available

I'm forever fascinated by Massive Attack's 100th Window, arguably one of the heaviest albums of the 2000s, or any decade for that matter.

I use technology in order to hate it properly - Nam June Paik

New Akufen track in 2026? 😲

Fantastic album - may have become my favourite Miles Davis at this point.

The older I get, the less I can relate to Waters and the more I can relate to Gilmour.

This is a much better list than I would've expected from Mojo. Classic rock fans will never get past the sheer existence of Trout Mask Replica, haha.

The "AI is going to take over, we need to slow it down" publicity stunt is happening to convince you of two things that are highly debatable, namely that 1.) AI is super powerful, and 2.) tech companies are acting responsibly.

Many classic albums came out 40 years ago, like Graceland, or Reign in Blood. I wrote about five brilliant and visionary Italo disco singles from 1986 instead. 🍦 skug.at/italo-disco-...

Happy 80th birthday to one of my genuine musical heroes Suzanne Ciani www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJiT...

If we accept AI chatbots as 'conscious', tech companies can enter entirely new legal territory for their products and have them granted special protection, similar to human rights. This is the only reason why the topic is all over your social media feed right now.

Adore this footage of Blood Incantation's 2022 release show for what's still my favourite album of the past 10 years or so, their beautiful ambient record Timewave Zero. 👽 youtu.be/zkBjURQ-y6o

Love this 2025 slow tempo set by Chloé for HÖR Berlin 🖤 www.youtube.com/live/ebsISbj...

Post an album you have listened to 100 times.

Huge fan of Oren Ambarchi's earlier work that was all about these weird sounding low frequency tones that he created from his sawn off looking electric guitar. youtu.be/1FMm9Pi8vi0

Happy to see all the love for Kylie Minogue and her music lately.

There go your 1990s heavy metal heroes - Paradise Lost's Greg Mackintosh contributed to the new record by Rammstein's Till Lindemann who was recently facing allegations of systematic misconduct - ew...

New Boards of Canada album is our Oasis reunion.

Say what you will about Taylor Swift but don't tell me that Folklore isn't an amazing album that deserves all the praise it receives from middle-aged males like myself.

Two short noise pieces on this transparent 7" vinyl release by Daniel Menche from 1995 on a label called Gender-Less Kibbutz.

"The Untold Story" 🙈

UAP disclosure is all over my social media feeds but I'll argue that the ambient community has been living in an age of disclosure for a very long time. 👽🛸

I'm getting into Mike Oldfield's Ommadawn album from 1975 - sounds refreshingly different from what his contemporaries were doing in progressive rock and ambient music at the time.

When I grew up in the 1990s, guys like Rod Stewart were the epitome of uncool. Many, many years later and I can't believe how good this record is - I've been playing it nonstop for months.

Here's my current listening playlist - feat. Boards of Canada, Kevin Martin, Carlos Benedetti, The Beach Boys, Hercules & Love Affair, Meitei, Oren Ambarchi / crys cole, Ravyn Lenae, Chantal Michelle, Miles Davis, Dave Angel, and more. open.spotify.com/playlist/4qS...

Rumour has it I am working on a new Phirnis track. 🙏

This has become one of my favourites.

Would it be feasible? 🤔

Just to try to help illustrate the kind of thing we’re talking about, here are some stock photos we found of two tapes.

The music of Igorrr is so impressive it sounds like a music software demonstration. Can I have some air to breathe please?

I wrote about the coming end of my favourite thrash metal band, the sometimes brilliant, sometimes problematic Megadeth (text in German). skug.at/megadeth-kra...

"Hallogallo" cover art from Museum of Science and Technology, Vienna - never seen this before.

Love the new KMRU / Fennesz tracck, Blurred - beautiful, super slow build-up, almost like a delicate vision of harsh noise.

Fantastic and inspiring selection by Tracey Thorn, one of my top 5 favourite vocalists in this world.
