AI and the Rise of Mediocrity by Ray Nayler — a bloody huge and timely caveat. [thanks to @greatdismal.bsky.social] time.com/6337835/ai-m...

Currently reading the latest by my old friend, Ray Nayler. www.raynayler.net

Father Murphy were an amazing band. i'm lucky to have seen them play several times. Wish they were still around. youtu.be/w-oM2OG6aro?...

Tear Garden is touring soon. Tickets just went on sale. legendarypinkdots.org

Fleshposting.

Having watched the music video for the new Chaka Khan song I wonder if the AI backlash will lead to producers moving on from egregiously obvious autotuned vocals. One can hope.

hunting wabbits an shit so shhhhh... new bran(...)pos EP out today (bro/ken) only on Subvert for now (official opening/day May 12) give it a spin www.subvert.fm/branpos/broken

Wow. Excellent sound, excellent visuals. youtu.be/74NluS3jzTo?...

San Francisco 1993; The Haters were taking turns animating two large metal puppets that swung about wildly beating on a motorized junk pile placed between them. youtu.be/ahBYHvzuIkQ

Hell yeah the good old days when the whole point of a synthesizer was to "imitate a trumpet." The computer aided composition at the end is awesome. youtu.be/5AmatpZZV3E?...

ADULT. were fantastic last night. They did a cover of Tuxedomoon's No Tears for an encore. I'd love it if they released another covers single.

Oh, Laibach. youtu.be/WT6MSQVaVvo?...

Going to the ADULT. show at the Rickshaw stop tomorrow night. I'm going to die, but I'll leave a smiling corpse.

At the William Basinski show at Gray Area tonight. Kelly Moran will be kicking things off with some experimental piano. I'm not familiar with her work but I'm looking forward to hearing it. Perhaps unsurprisingly there is a much smaller crowd than there was for the OOIOO and Lightning Bolt show.

Just found out Boris Mikulic is the pseudonym of Herman Gillis who played guitar in Poesie Noire. He also designed the Sherman Filterbank. All of this means nothing to anyone I know.

Went to the ballet last night. Mere Mortals was incredible. www.sfballet.org/productions/...

I'm at the Gray Area for the OOIOO show, waiting for my friend who's coming for the Lightning Bolt show. We're going to duke it out in the pit. grayarea.org/event/ooioo-...

Glad I can catch some of this before work. www.youtube.com/live/wBW-XtH...

My new album came out at last... soundcloud.com/cylob/sets/i...

New ADULT. album is out. Love it. For the first time there's a face on the cover, not cropped out or turned away from the camera or otherwise obscured. Amazing. adultmusic.bandcamp.com/album/kissin...

Mourning my dog by taking myself for a walk.

I took my dog to the vet for the last time this morning. I knew it was going to be a possibility for a little while now, but it's still difficult. I'm going to miss that guy. Despite being a tiny dog he occupied a huge space in my mind and heart.

one day remains www.kickstarter.com/projects/wea...

Fancy new video of my last live set that de-emphasizes me and foregrounds the fancy flashing lights (when I actually remember to start the projection). youtu.be/zdBFgTra1mA?...

My latest Godwaffle set... www.bitchute.com/video/suahPz...

Being from the Bay Area, I was always irritated by the default popularity and ubiquity of Neurosis. I saw the error of my ways several years back. Anyway, this unexpected new album is excellent. neurosis.bandcamp.com/album/an-und...

My friends built this incredible website, the art calendar of my dreams, which includes functions like "ending soon" and "has events" PLUS a map view and wow it's just the best: artboard.info

The mighty LX Rudis from last week's Godwaffle. www.bitchute.com/video/0IITnB...

TROPISPHERE is the synth/drum machine-forward, no wavey, dark soundtracky offshoot of cumbia outfit Ritmos Tropicosmos come see us live at @ratskinrecords.bsky.social Outsider Sounds and Visions Festival Fri March 27 we will have copies of our new tape Los Demos for sale (shhh not official yet)

I went to an Ethyl Meatplow show shortly after this album came out and my father, who had a knack for misremembering the names of bands I was into, told me "Have fun at the Polly Stick It To Me Meatloaf concert." youtu.be/JYuV33vmWok?...

Outsider Sounds and Visions Fest is a music festival happening in west oakland March 27-28, 2026. Trilled to announce Sharkiface. She has been dominating the underground noise seances for decades across a variety of projects and brings her dark sexy electronics to the Buzzard on March 27.

It's time to meet Jamaicans! youtu.be/HD--KKeRL-c?...

Godwaffle Noise Pancakes is tomorrow at Noon. Go to show!

donny proffit

still a week and a bit left. the bigger the number, the more of part 4 we can get done too. www.kickstarter.com/projects/wea...

I've had months to prepare so of course it took me until last night to put together my set for Godwaffle Noise Pancakes on Saturday. I'm doing my invisible man bit so I prepped some video projections to hide behind as well.

One week! Forrest Friends are way cool and LX Rudis is incredible. And I'm playing, but whatever. Come. Eat pancakes.

Damaged Bug remains my favorite Dwyer project. youtu.be/QqU-kWxJd7g?...

New emom video just dropped (bwahaha) www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUJq...
