I’ve really enjoyed witnessing the evolution of Thought Bubbles sound over their last few releases! “Who’s To Say?” see’s them really step into their sound in a big way! Live on the blog now! staticsoundsclub.com/2026/04/04/t...

The new Thought Bubble album has been given an amazing review courtesy of the Static Sounds Club blog-zine-thingy: staticsoundsclub.com/2026/04/04/t...

Beside the seaside last week. Great Yarmouth

Today I have been working on mixes for three new Thought Bubble tracks, while also designing a set of pretty far out tarot cards.

A rare visit to Birmingham. Through the late 70s and into the early 90s this would have been my regular stomping ground.

I see all episodes of the Ed Pratt source to sea, River Thames expedition are now viewable for free on YouTube. It was filmed a couple of years ago now, but is highly entertaining and informative. Watch it on your telly though (freeview), rather than a tiny phone screen

Out and about #greatyarmouth @loulayorke.bsky.social

SPACELOG 1313: MOTHER has granted @nigelpmeredith.bsky.social and @soundsofspacep.bsky.social authority to launch “Hidden Melodies of the KP Index” on Moonday’s Dark Train. It’s a wondrous document of art and science. Departing UFO Central (WCR) y Radio MINERVA at 2200 GMT//1800 ART 💚💛🧡❤️

This is me, performing with Shankara, a few Summers ago at Kozfest. Photographer Harry Collison always gets the shot.

All the logistical potholes were somehow avoided and there we were in a big place, in Brixton, listening to Cardiacs one more time

Genning up on the new Cardiacs tunes, ahead of tomorrow’s London gig!

Frantically searching viable logistics for a dash into London. And then home for an intriguing talk

It’s finished.

Finishing touches… #abstract #gesso

My poster, now slightly updated, for the first spacerock musical weekender of the Summer, I’m planning on attending.

A track from the new Thought Bubble album features on the cover-mount CD with the next edition of Means magazine

From the new Thought Bubble album, here’s the opening track: youtu.be/3TNFIlDw5ic?...

I spent a few hours of today bimbling around #chorley town centre, while awaiting an urgent brake calliper and pads replacement. Not a cheap day. Still, the garage got it done at short notice. Here’s some nice peeling paint I found on my circuit

A bit late, but a review of the Thought Bubble EP we released before Zmas has just appeared. It’s actually turned out to be a particularly pleasant surprise! lazland.org/album-review...

Homunculus?

Summer’s on its way

Fifty years ago today, my musical adventures started, in #birminghamtownhall #marcbolanandtrex hit the stage with an adrenaline (or something) fuelled version of #20thcenturyboy I was utterly blown away and never came back #livemusic #glamrock

Raw, live music by local band Crystal Ball, Prague based Ginger Wizard and Leeds’ Self Immolation. Proper in-yer-face stuff. Surprisingly, there was a clear progrock aptitude to the headliners, albeit with grunge attitude. Hats off to One Hand Clapping for making this marvellous kinda thing happen

This evening’s plans…

This metre square painting is still very much a work in progress. Despite using heavy body acrylic paint, the white is needing multiple coats, but with very straight edges. It’s proving exhausting.

Taking advantage of a break in the rains, I scrambled up some steep paths and rocks, above Batch Valley, eventually winding up on Church Stretton golf course.

No rain, so an afternoon saunter #batchvalley #longmynd #shropshirehills

In the South wing of the shed, today. There’s a very slow moving abstract piece that’s demanding a steady hand

Wolverhampton today. Good friends. Good conversation, a comedy show: Clementine at the Arena (a solo tour de force by Rosalie Minnit), top nosh at Dosa Hut and a gallery full of awesome art

A new Thought Bubble album is appearing on the Moolakii Club Audio Interface label tomorrow. It’s not officially released til later March, but presales go live on Bandcamp. Who’s to say?

I’ll be bongo bothering for Darmus again on April 25th, at Foxlowe Arts Centre, Leek. This time we’re opening the evening with the stellar Helicon and the positively lovely Crystal Teardrop. facebook.com/events/s/hel...

Well, this really works for me - and indeed brings back memories of CSE English, 1974. Beautifully shot, acted, edited and scored. A+

Phwoooaaar! Homemade (bread machine) loaf = lots of nuts, seeds and turmeric, a squidge of ketchup and I’m ready for the day

As a shed dweller, this story and indeed this profile’s whole shedcentric theme is rather intriguing.

Repost with a photo of yours that would make a good album cover

Because it forgot to rain yesterday, I managed to get up into the local Long Mynd hills for a saunter that became a scramble on all fours.

Because I’ve had a little flurry of orders for the ‘Ver Sessions’ compilation cassette, by Depth Charms, I’ve quickly doodled some oddities to slip in with orders. I hope the buyers don’t mind too much

The mad three albums in three months project I did with guitar mangler Mike Vest a couple of years ago, was compiled as a cassette by Cruel Nature. For some reason there’s been an upswing in interest, resulting in sales of my own few copies, from my #bandcamp page! Buy mine and you get a doodle too

I’m working on another large, metre square canvas. This one’s taking an abstract geometric direction. Straight edges, stencils and acrylics
