Nighthawks 2025 From the new Private Eye, out now.

How does Plugin Boutique do it? 🙃

Catching up on the 3rd-16th October edition of ‘Private Eye’ (@privateeyenews.bsky.social) this evening, I noticed that a ‘Words Fail Me’ entry was making the same “carrion”/“carry on” pun I had made 12 months earlier. Actually mine was funnier because it referenced the ‘Carry On’ films. 😜 #ohMatron

Thanks to ‘This is Darkness’ for reviewing Earthrid release ‘Carrion Carya Amara’ by Carya Amara (@caryaamara.bsky.social): “Uplifting and dark in equal measure, this is one of those albums that offers something new with each and every listen. Remarkable!” 🎧 earthrid.bandcamp.com/album/carrio...

My Brighton live debut at The Spirit of Gravity this Thursday, I'm on at 8.30pm.

Hey #musicsky and #synthsky, just out of curiosity what bandcamp alternatives do you use? Any Ampwall or Artcore users out there? Somewhere else? I'm looking to diversify my music's availability without going down the typical streaming distribution route. Please do share your experiences.

In a Sheffield garden. Our beautiful friend paid us a visit tonight. #FoxOfTheDay @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

The circle is very helpful in identifying the “cat” but I feel that some arrows pointing to the “bed” would have been useful.

About two hours until our listening party 😄 would be lovely to see some of you there!

My visits to Bergen in Norway, home of the Vikings, death metal and pickled herring, a drive to Beachy Head, Sussex, documented by Throbbing Gristle & The Cure, & the Bahamas in the week it announced itself a republic with Rihanna in attendance. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The power of Crufts compels you.

One of my lice is looking very poorly. Where in the UK can I possibly go to treat him oh thank god for that.

Many thanks to Mutant Zones... "Dark ambient compositions that evoke an eerie energy... enough creepiness to make me come back to it over and over again."

I’d still choose cycling every time, despite getting hit by cars alarmingly regularly. We just need fewer cars on the road and everyone would be safer, healthier and happier.

Driven into this morning whilst cycling on a new, bright green bike lane with clear right of way (all fine, but still). Drivers still find it hard to consider any traffic beyond other cars. I feel invisible approaching that junction every day, despite lots of improvements, and today it seems I was.

"… even a seemingly simple term, organized sound, has a complex history of meaning and inflection…"

A "bid to repair relations with Moscow" ❓ "European-sponsored amendments inserting new _anti-Russian language_" ❓ @washingtonpost.com taking care to read the room, but it's the wrong room.
