Going to try and do some sale at Cambridge Record Fair on the 15th! www.thebostoncalendar.com/events/cambr...

There was a great callback in this week's episode, when Elsbeth tells an editor "Someone once read Keats out loud to me, and it made me cry." The episode also features recitals of some hilariously bad poetry, which I suspect was written by Wendell Pierce and Carrie Preston.

Not much need to submit a review for the new Tortoise, other than to say it sits at a musical crossroads where everything is possible, and contemplates on it all. Masterful. Skittery stripped techno, post rock lushness, un-jazz, it is no age and genre fluid. intlanthem.bandcamp.com/album/touch

I dreamed I was hiking in Scotland, and at the top of a mountain I found a Neolithic ring of stone blocks called "Fingal's Teeth."

Unless you have a single board computer, in which case you need a Minnie Driver.

NYC this Friday -- A rare trio concert by Henry Threadgill, Dafnis Prieto, and me! www.92ny.org/event/henry-...

It is 3am in Korea and I'm trying to organize a thing. Not my favorite thing to do! But I have to give it a try. There is an auction for the remainder of the Mark Pines collection and I'm trying to organize a bid. Need money and I'm trying to coordinate a phone bid as well. A real hail mary pass.

there should be more country music with synthesizers and electronics

@thirdkindrecords.bsky.social is doing a listening party today at 2pm! Celebrating the upcoming release of My Life in Cinema by William Carlos Whitten thirdkindrecords.bandcamp.com/album/my-lif...

I just witnessed a real life "grink" moment happening and it was incredible.

This has taken far too long - the holiday was a while ago now. Anyway, here you go: New Blog Post: Holiday Listening Part 2 - Bang On A Can Play Eno's Music For Airports heathcoatstreet.blogspot.com/2025/11/holi...

New tape/digital album out from my friend @cercamusic.bsky.social. All his records are very good, especially if you like layered, interesting & well-played guitar. A comp I always land on is the great Steven R. Smith and his various projects. Excellent stuff: cercamusic.bandcamp.com/album/cross-...

Tape heads: is this a good deal?

New EP from the younger kid: tehomdoom.bandcamp.com/album/burnin...

"Sometimes I feel like people look at me and they’re like, ‘Wow, she’s so profound.’ It’s like, Yeah, thanks. But also, I’m lit. I can be stupid if I want to be. I’m not your magic little violin player.”

I finally got around to watching "Hundreds of Beavers". What a clever, outrageous, zany, and surreal movie. Truly one of a kind.

Finally rehoming my sprawling Child Ballads playlist to YouTube, for now. Also working on a fun companion playlist, and hoping to finish my other sprawling folk music index playlists there!! #folkmusic

Jeffrey Alexander and the Heavy Lidders is a band name where you know what you're gonna get. If you say that you're surprised to find a heady jammy psych band with 2x guitars, bass, drums and sax putting out a live performance where they disintegrate before coming back together, I won't believe you.

I love when artists have the courage to revisit their earlier work. It's a way to put things into perspective, to demonstrate growth while also honoring their roots.

Estragon: Well, shall we go? Vladimir: Yes, let's go. [they do not move]

Get some global pop in your ears.

Asking for an internet friend — if you know Peter K. Siegel, former A&R rep at Polydor Records in the 1970s, let me know so I can pass it on to someone who would like to interview him.

This is my chance to share the only decent JD cover I’ve heard. These Canadian kids do a nice job of changing it up just enough — www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PSJ...

Remember the trove of media I acquired with lost GD footage from the '82 Jamaica music fest + much more? Good: 1300 tapes saved (link) We've a film deal with rolling stone for the lost documentary that was found about the fest! But I need more $ to get the final tapes archive.org/details/mark...

Athens, GA library does this also. It's really great to see.

Listen, this GIS-based approach to revising ideas about the Achaemenid Royal Road (550–330 BCE) is a great example of why digital humanities continues to be necessary and transformative within history. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Unsure how to self release? Want to get on a label? Questions about the reverb on that hi-hat? Come to the next producers meet up! It’s online, it’s friendly and supportive. It’s for subscribers, all I’d ask is you subscribe for £4 once( and you can cancel straight away, that’s totally fine 💜)

Are you interested in local folklore/history? Want to connect with other researchers outside institutional settings? Consider joining on 11/19 6PM for a virtual reunion of the Virginia Folklore Society. Were hoping to help the society out of its dormancy & would love to hear from anyone out there! 🪕

Trying to work out the name of a film, which I’m 99% sure I didn’t make up… It ends in a darkroom with the camera lingering on a photograph in developing fluid that slowly reveals the killer/solution, but it then turns white from being overdeveloped Maybe Italian/giallo adjacent Help! #filmsky

My first election as a Georgian!

Wonderful to hear a trautonium played so well youtu.be/am8e99r2pEY?...

What I hadn’t anticipated is how freshly relevant this feels. In Lynsey Hanley’s intro, she paraphrases Hoggart’s argument: “Men with great powers of persuasion are about to suppress what you know about yourself in order to profit from what you haven’t yet explored. Don’t let them do it.” 1/n

Now listening to Start Anew, the new album from Toronto rapper Shad. This has been a good couple of weeks for laid-back, mellow, jazzy hiphop. This one feels both retro and fresh. It’s good Saturday morning music.

Nourish your soul with this 3 minute and 21 second slice of nocturnal gorgeousness from 1973 youtu.be/OzW19kUKp7o?...

this is very cool: Kodak quietly relisted Kodak Gold and Ultramax on its website and confirmed to me it is selling the films directly to photography stores again. this is a big deal because for the last decade, Kodak has not controlled distribution of its own film www.404media.co/kodak-quietl...

Whoa! Wong Kar Wai has a 30-episode TV series coming out on Criterion Channel 11/24
