Returning to this now, still sinking in and very lovely stuff Indeed

Every picture of Neil Young with a pono makes him look like a ‘sovereign citizen’ from Yeovil measuring 5G near birds and cats.

Deadlines approach and Glass becomes a must, this never fails to increase my so-far-undiagnosed concentration ability... from about 1% to 2%

Now playing (Discs 2 & 3)

Still on the Greek Myths. I feel if you'd lived with the name "Anius" you'd be careful when it came to naming your own children

Now playing ,'night all

Wait IT'S A REAL THING

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Oh wow, instant Proustian rush for me here, getting to watch Yvette Fielding-era Blue Peter whilst having a chips & beans dinner at the wee tables in front of the telly

Tonight's new-to-me viewing, never seen a Moss role I didn't like

Just recorded my own death, pls avenge me

btw I'm still convinced that some discogs sellers have an automated process that intentionally re-lists items every day, so they're forced into daily wantlist alert emails.

Stoked for Sexi Robyn Stentital, the return of my one true pop queen

You can't play sax and dole out coke on live telly anymore. Because of woke.

A break from Morty now to delve back into the second most recent charity shop pile, and Gorécki by the Czech Phil. Those brass fanfares at the start of Muzyka Staropolska are just 🔥

More of this absolute banger now

Little known fact: the Prince song 'Sexy MF' is short for 'Sexy Morton Feldman'

Good morning #CDFriday - very pleased yesterday to find I still have this, bought in 1998 for starting uni as something that reminded me of home and the music I was weaned on. Even the pianist's name was familiar: today I learned it was a stage name, and she was born Mary Gertrude Johnstone

Having been offline most of the day switching phones (old one finally refused to charge), I finally have one with a decent camera again

I need at least 3 more folk to sign up for my Edinburgh Adult Education Programme archaeology classes at Craigentinny, or the course will be cancelled. If you know anyone who might be interested, please let them know. Thank you! adulteducationedinburgh.spydus.co.uk/cgi-bin/spyd...

Coptic Light's on again: apparently there is a Michael Tilson Thomas-conducted version of it on Argo which makes this one sound like mud by comparison (and the cpo sounds perfectly fine to me!). The Argo has been added to the world without end that is my Discogs wantlist

Now playing

Time for this now, still unexplored from the last charity shop pile

Now playing

Pick up the nearest book. Turn to page 42, post the second sentence. "The forecast was for warm dry weather extending unbroken for a week to come."

Good morning, now playing

Bookplates by Austin Osman Spare

Would be genuinely love to know what this label writer thinks "the lumpen dross" of that era was, if they think that towering above it all was the 76 minute album that included The Drugs Don't Work and Sonnet

Spending part of a day off hanging around the vet school campus until lunchtime. Meanwhile this one is making her absolute rage known at going in for followup scans

Now playing, 'night all and thanks Ralph for an incredible musical life

Now playing, RIP

Sad news indeed. A phenomenal musician.

. @florencehrscott.bsky.social bought me a cup

"In this article, I’ll discuss how 'Music for Airports' was created, and I’ll deconstruct and recreate the tracks 2/1 and 1/2. Hopefully, the article will demystify some of Brian Eno’s techniques and give you some ideas about how to adopt some of his ambient music techniques yourself."

Just arrived: quick listen to Rothko Chapel suggesting very much worth the impulse-buy. Just found out that the pianist on Frank O'Hara is none other than Julius Eastman!

”I am not a clockmaker. I am interested in getting to time in its unstructured existence. [...] I am interested in how time exists before we put our paws on it - our minds, our imaginations, into it." - Morton Feldman 🖤

Share what you consider to be a goddess tier album.

MFP box is back on: love how Mort gave almost everything such functional descriptive titles (or painter dedications) that when you get to something with an actual distinct title, it's all the more beguiling: oooh must go down a 'Palais de Mari' internet rabbit hole sometime

Nighthawks, Edward Hopper (1942)

George in the Jungle

You will not regret scrolling up for the rest of this thread about the sheer audacity of cats to walk into houses they don't live in and swan around like they own the place Honestly, excellent cat behaviour 💯

One for the Jazzers, thinking @mole9.bsky.social if you haven't already seen, new on @falsewalls.bsky.social. sounding exceptional and already ordered here kennywheelersextet.bandcamp.com/album/what-was

This is also very much in that category

Now playing
