The improvised ambient set I played at Star & Shadow in Newcastle is now up on my Subscription Bandcamp! What a lovely venue and group of people. I hope to be back there soon: subpolypores.bandcamp.com/track/live-a...

Are you missing Ambient Polypores? Well you’re in luck my friend because I’m doing a spaced-out droney ambient set (using just one synthesizer) at the Star and Shadow Cinema in lovely Newcastle this Friday 03/07/26! Tickets here: www.starandshadow.org.uk/programme/ev...

The live recording of last weekend’s FIRE gig at Iklectic for @babayagashut.bsky.social is now up on my Subscription Bandcamp. £3.50/month and you get LOADS of exclusive music, and it really helps support me as an independant artist: subpolypores.bandcamp.com

I have some T-Shirts for sale. They are a lovely shade of green, and were designed by Nick Taylor for CiS a few years back. These are all that are left. Grab them here, while you still can, and help pay my therapy bills: polypores.bandcamp.com/merch/limite...

Thanks everyone who came down to Iklectik last night, it was SICK. Cheers @warringtonruncorn.com @babayagashut.bsky.social @abearsounds.bsky.social @loulayorke.bsky.social @sulkrooms.bsky.social @kyliemonologue.bsky.social 🙏

Wonderful to have these two new ones from pals/remixers arrive on the same day! Top work Kristen Gallerneaux and @polypores.bsky.social - brilliant albums.

“Bizzare as fuck” - fantastic review of Wrigglers here! 🍄👽🍄

He’s right at it again - gloriously unfettered, exuberant & downright head-fuckingly brilliant, the crackle of pure energy running right through it.

I had loads of fun waxing lyrical about @polypores.bsky.social's banging new album 'Wrigglers' in this week's @moonbuilding.bsky.social. For my money it's Stephen at his most experimental. Imagine! A well deserved album of the week.

Been looking forward to hearing this album in it's entirety. WELL worth the wait, it's two tonnes of playful twisted prog fun 🪱🪱🪱

My new album "Wrigglers" is out NOW via @crackedankles.bsky.social ! It's been described as "Downright wonky" and I think that's fair. Get it here or wherever you get your music: polypores.bandcamp.com/album/wriggl...
