Thank you, everyone, for your unwavering support and love for Utility - and for everything over the last 20 years. Apologies for my spotty appearances as of late, but there is more music coming this year. That's a promise.

Free new EP available on Bandcamp. accesstoarasaka.bandcamp.com

Thanks for the well wishes, all. No worries! I have another week to finish teaching people how to code for the website, and music is once again flowing. This is actually a good thing.

Well, I lost my job to outsourcing/AI and late-stage capitalism. What's up with this OnlyFans thing? Is there a market for "fully-clothed and eating string cheese while staring directly into the camera and sometimes sneezing" that I can tap into?

Do people still come here to read about music stuff?

Why did it take me until my second playthrough of Far Cry 6 to realize what an absolute banger La Vida Loca is?

Just removed all I can from Spotify. The $100 a year I make from all my streams (Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, YouTube, etc.) isn't worth knowing that these fucks made so much more off of 20+ years of my creations and put it all into military AI. Also removing everything from Amazon because fuck Bezos.

RIP, Poe. Fuck, man. Bunny surgery is extremely fickle. Gonna miss this little bugger.

Warm and sunny Spring day. Feeling reflective and listening to a lot of old tracks from when I was a young skate rat. Currently:

Happy May, everyone.

Oh, snap. I didn't even realize it's also #AlienDay! Happy LV-426, folks!

I mean, I didn't NEED to buy more books at the moment, but it is #IndieBookstoreDay after all. So a stop at @unreliablebooks.bsky.social obviously had to happen.

Time for an album that you most likely don't own, but you definitely should. Short Days - Demo 2012 shortdays.bandcamp.com/album/demo-2... #musicsky #shortdays #punkasfuck

Happy bunny day to all from Poe.

I gotta say, the opening sentence of @patcadigan.bsky.social's "Patterns" really hits differently these days.

Is woof Wednesday a thing? Whatever. This is Midge. She's been my work wife for 7 years. We still had Zoom meetings during the pandemic.

Just in time for Steam's Lovecraftian Days celebration. Let's get weird!!

Ok, here's over 80 mins of ambient music for you. Some of these are even new... keefbaker.bandcamp.com/album/archae...

To everyone protesting today, I'm with you in spirit. I'm at the World Oddities Expo helping my better half sell art while also having lost my voice. But get out there and be heard since I cannot. And blast some Alice in Chains for Layne's memory today.

Hey. If you're reading this, I think you're cool and I hope you have a great weekend.

Wow, Philly is a pretty rad city, but I honestly can't tell if I hate the pedestrians or the drivers more. This is like fucking Death Race 2000.

Share a cover song that you like more than the original. Hot takes are fine. This is a judgement-free zone.

A happy day of visibility to my trans friends! Know that you are seen and loved every fucking day, not just today.

Hey, all. It's certainly a time. Is everyone doing okay? Do you need anything?

I've spoken a lot in the past about video games that have ended up changing my life regarding music and whatnot. But FF7 is 100% responsible for the way I do squats.

Sometimes I write code and think, "hell yeah, I totally know what I'm doing." It never compiles, but for that brief moment, I feel smart.

What's your current favorite synth?

Six years later and a fuckton of new gear and techniques — and we still just wrote more old school anklebiter. But better. Much more dynamic. I like it a lot. Many pads. All that’s left are final mix sessions and it’s off to mastering. Ten songs. Title tbd. Release channel tbd.

Out today, new track Luna on Arcane Dirge's stellar new ambient compilation. Incredible artists on there, so check it out! Sorry for posting this so late. I'm bad at the internet. arcanedirge.bandcamp.com/album/arcanu...

Oh, hey. #peegsky

Hey, everyone. Times are tough, and I know music costs money. Despite my albums being available for free, I know many of you want them in your BC library. Starting today, grab the full discography (minus my releases on CRL and other labels) for 50 cents. That's literally the least I can charge.

Fucking hell, could 2025 just stop already?? :(

I've said this before, but I'll repeat it in case you need a refresher: Your art only needs to move a single person to effectively change the world. And that single person can be yourself. Don't stop creating.

Amazing new EP from NFNR. Echoes of classic electronica recorded on a heavily-used cassette. Very much worth a listen.

It would be such a shame if everyone kept reporting the official White House YouTube channel's videos as "spam or misleading."

Decisions were made this weekend, and a darling goth was rescued. Please welcome Poe to the family. #bunnysky

Vcam | apendula New album of electronic listening music now available: vcam.bandcamp.com/album/apendula Come listen to what @igloomag.bsky.social calls "a benchmark within IDM’s expansive realm of abstract musical—and non-musical—explorations."

I'm so embarrassed for our country. To our allies, I'm so sorry we have this orange shitstain of a president. I can't even imagine how betrayed Ukrainians must feel right now. Just deeply shameful all around.

Frank Drebin was the greatest cop ever in the LAPD.

Furry Friday. Jem and I hope everyone has a great day today!

happy 31 years to march of the pigs for all who celebrate.🖤 www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHPk...
