Safe In My Garden - a new compilation I've put together for Ace Records. Melancholic sunshine pop, created in the shadow of Vietnam. Perfect for early autumn. www.acerecords.co.uk/safe-in-my-g...

Ace Records are delighted to announce the reissue one of Parliament’s classic LPs, “Funkentelechy Vs. The Placebo Syndrome” on 26.09.2025.

The new @acerecords.bsky.social comp CHIP SHOP POP is SO much my thing - 24 early 70s melodic Brit pop singles that should've charted, but didn't - but it's such a comprehensive set that even if I wasn't already in the bag for it I'd still be impressed. Five stars. acerecords.co.uk/chip-shop-pop

"Jon Savage's 1986-1990 Rollin' Under The Melody" will be released: 26.09.2025 🔥

I have decided Yungblud seems very sweet and I particularly like his stories about his mum and his nan. This is how I approach music made for younger people these days.

For a split second, I thought she was wearing an Iggy Pop suit.

A happy cat in a cardboard box in the sunshine. (Morgan Freeman voice) in a story as old as time.

I deeply hope Sly Stone and Brian Wilson rest well. They gave us whole worlds. 💚

Bloody hell 💔

RIP to one of our heroes and a true giant of popular music: Sly Stone. Full appreciation to follow shortly. 🙏

I caught Mate having a heart to heart with a black & white tote bag.
