Happy to stumble across a friendly vinyl and good beers place a couple of minutes away from where we're staying in #Malaga

This week in 1988. The Mighty Lemon Drops at Nottingham Rock City for the second time. #TicketStubWed #MusicChallenge

Striking buildings abound here in #Malaga. It's fun exploring.

Night time #Streetart discoveries in Soho. #Malaga

Quote post with a photo of yours that would make a good album cover...

My top tips for not using Amazon if you’re a book lover in the UK: borrow books from library and get the Libby app for ebooks/audiobooks. Use XigXag to buy audiobooks. And just pay a few more quid to buy new books from a local indie or somewhere with decent moral values like bookshop.org

Dream popping into Saturday afternoon with Manchester band Nice Things. @theoddies.bsky.social

#NP The Futureheads -'News and Tributes' "Cut down in their prime. In silence, on that day. February 58" youtu.be/kqAYxpTT5j8?...

Picked up this new @stuhennigan.bsky.social one today. Not sure it's going to be a fun holiday read next week but have heard very good things. #GetKeshed

A sweet little social film that we made for Dormouse Books, using footage captured during our 'A Day In Belper' commercial shoot for Love Belper CIC last summer. Support independent book shops, y'all!! They are the cosiest spaces.

My #SOTW this week is Eaves Wilder "Hurricane Girl" youtu.be/tP4vK28tDHc?...

#TicketStubWed This week in '88. Rose of Avalanche in a suitably ominously named venue.

The Irish Times review of that film makes an interesting connection

Handy reminder of the band that Wham! could have been.

Olympic day out with @fcunitedmcr.bsky.social Last minute winner is the best feeling 🇾🇪👏👏

My #SOTW this week is "Bloodlust" by Bloodworm. Strong gothic atmosphere with this one. youtu.be/CNOLrbHxeZw?...

Latest book was a good 'un. Unusual interconnecting short stories from an Indigeneous community perspective. Often dark, sometimes not. Out via @andotherstories.bsky.social #Booksky

#ManchesterUnited return to Old Trafford in August 1949 after a decade away due to WWII and wartime bomb damage 📸 AD

Heard that this place got demolished today. Shame if so. Oak Hurst, Ambergate, Derbyshire, share.google/HUhlFK0kvyAP...

Rest in peace, Sly Dunbar. Alongside bassist Robbie Shakespeare, Dunbar formed the most influential rhythm section in Jamaican music history, helping to define the sound of reggae, dub, and dancehall. Dunbar, a 13-time Grammy nominee, was 73.

Another mesmerising set from Bloodworm yesterday for Beat The Streets. Hope they go down a storm on their forthcoming tour with @suedehq.bsky.social

Back rokin’ with The Nightingales next month. 10 dates in some towns and cities we haven’t been to for a long time, all booked by me 🙃 It’s been a good while so come out come out wherever you are, you never know when yr next Nightingale fix is gonna come www.thenightingales.org.uk/live

Psychedelic scenes and sounds last night in #Derby. @thevelocettes.bsky.social and Project Emptyhead. Good choice of new venue too- Quad cinema gallery space.

Looking forward to the annual trip to Beat the Streets in #Nottingham tomorrow. Tons of good acts and all £ raised helps the homeless.

My #SOTW this time is "Blah Blah Blah" by LYR With the poet laureate on vocals youtu.be/yxOTpTOULVE?...

My first book of 2026 was "Quinn" by Em Strang. It's an hallucinatory, intense and poetic one. Very different. #Booksky

Very pleased to be visiting Bydgoszcz 🇵🇱. Interesting city to explore.

A good first night in Bydgoszcz where it is still very festive 🎄🇵🇱

Away for 3 days with only a previously unworn pair of Doc's as footwear. Wish me luck.

My #SOTW this week is "Excuse Me" the return of Heavenly. youtu.be/YdAviD0byWg?... From the forthcoming "Highway to Heavenly" album.

www.mixcloud.com/thesoundFM/i... Happy New Year and happy new indie & alt bangers! Rob O’Cop showcases the latest & greatest, as well as a bunch of top tracks from earlier that he discovered via other people’s best-of-2025 lists. Includes albums of the month from Caution (pictured) & Sophie and Me.

Loads of non-league games cancelled today so happy to spend a chilly couple of hours at Leek watching @fcunitedmcr.bsky.social pick up 3 points.

I had to carefully explain microfiche to someone the other day and I felt a hundred years old. I imagine dial-a-disc may be an unusual concept too.

First #SOTW of the year for me is Bonnie 'Prince' Billy "They Keep Trying to Find You" Video worth a look too. youtu.be/K4gkDv-omzw?...

I have a new track up from the upcoming record... have a listen where you listen. theredspinksandpurples.lnk.to/NewLeaf

Home from another superb #RockawayBeach festival. Great company, new and more familiar bands, with some crazy golf, silent disco and closing party dancing to round it all off 👏👏👏

The very charismatic Antony Szmierek rounded off a very good day 1 of Rockaway Beach festival. @rockawaybeach.bsky.social Ellis D another highlight.
