Bandcamp Friday is always a whirlwind of music to check out. I have several releases that I want people to hear but ALSO want to shine a light on other people's work. Going to spin up a Bandcamp Friday playlist of suggestions - some YK, many NOT. www.buymusic.club/list/ykrecor...

"Mitosis Bloom" from Infinite Limb a handmade visualization evoking the microcellular and the interstellar.

Excited to share that INFINITE LIMB has joined roster and we've uneleashed this new album, Seeds for Cosmic Radio. It's a journey from the soil to the stars! Best listened to start to finish, especially if you're a fan of an enjoyable electronic atmosphere. ykrecords.com/releases/see...

New episode of YK WORLD out now. It’s three quick bites and one fast casual entree of information. My best metaphor work? MAYBE! It’s in your app now! www.ykworld.show/episodes/qui...

Please welcome Infinite Limb to the YK roster. New album of immersive electronic works headed your way this month. infinitelimb.com

Thursday, April 9th. 5pm - 7pm. Having a friendly hang at Vinyl Tap in Nashville. Not a show but friendly faces celebrating 20+ years of a great album, a great band and a new 2xLP.

I have mixed feels about Substack but very clear adoration for Ryan Norris (aka Coupler) Fantastic piece here about the creative act of negation.. editing.. This, Not That. open.substack.com/pub/couplerm...

The Features started playing "God Save Rock n' Roll" as far back as 2000. It was recorded in 2003 but never released... until today! 26 years in the making and it's still an absolute banger. I'm so happy to play a small part in getting it out into the world, finally and officially.

Tomorrow. A long awaited treat.

Found myself revisiting this YK release from 2015 a lot recently. It's instrumental and ambient but never background music. It's psychedelic, floaty and feels like zooming around the atmosphere. I'm biased but it's great. Finally put it on Ampwall! ampwall.com/a/ykrecords/...

Good April's Fool for vinyl nerds mailchi.mp/gottagroover... The Gotta Groove 350 gram Advanced Audiophile™ Pressing

From 2009-2010 there was an in-studio performance series called the Lake Fever Sessions. The website died a decade ago but I recently revived it! Make my domain registration worthwhile, go spend some time on the site: lakefeversessionsarchive.com

Feels great to see folks still discovering this record 17 years later. Thanks, Ampwall!

🍰 YK-001 was released March 10, 2009 - that's today! Happy birthday to Uncle Skeleton's PANCHO CHUMLEY. Very grateful to Ross for the opportunity to release music and grateful to anyone that has paid attention the last 17 years.

Brought into existence by notes from a toy piano and with a title referring to the term for a *genuine* smile, the soaring synth pop of "A Duchenne smile" by Fetching Pails is today's #MirloMondays discovery. 🐦‍⬛ Out now via the consistently great @ykrecords.bsky.social. mirlo.space/fetching-pai...

Back in 2019, Bleary recorded a Q Session with Monkey Riot Recordings for "bug." It's a damn good performance. Full performance on YouTube, first 3 minutes below: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT9X...

Oooo, @ampwall.com as an iOS app now. Very handy for listening to my purchases but really nice for discovery. Consistently impressed with how much this team ships. apps.apple.com/us/app/ampwa...

Being a music fan takes work in 2026! It’s enjoyable work but still just a bit of effort.

I stand by this! Metrics can be insightful but they shouldn’t carry as much weight as they do. Success is not determined solely by some analytics.

👋 an interview… with me! Go listen already!

Twelve years ago, UNCLE SKELETON released 'Too Young, Too Old,' an album that majestically blended dance music, bossa nova and ambient styles. The lead track, "VHF" is a total banger and comes with a wild music video. Maybe it's new to you? Here's 30 seconds
