I’m the kind of nerd that plays Aphex Twin’s Ambient Works II (Expanded Edition) on streaming only to realise it’s badly remastered (distorted bass) and goes back to find the original version (it was perfect how it was) music.apple.com/gb/album/blu...

Happy Birthday JQ @hiimjq.bsky.social 🎂 salmonuniverse.bandcamp.com/album/salmon...

Someone (in UK) asked me the other day if there are actual cities in Australia and I can confirm there are.

Hey friends. For my next Margate Radio shows I’m planning two mixes: 1. Australian artists, 2. UK artists. If you make ambient/experimental/modern classical please send me links. Or just recommend some below? 👇

Evidence of my former life as a Jedi. A Star Wars Episode II commemorative book (thank you for the Xmas gift @dantombs.bsky.social) and some call sheets from the shoot, in the year 2000.

UK record labels. Do you tick Gift or Commercial Sample or Sale of Goods when posting to the US? Or will it get pulverised at customs either way?

What are some great electronic records with choir or vocal manipulation. Not necessarily solo singer/songwriter, but interesting use of voice samples etc or ‘voice as instrument’. One rule: no autotune as an effect

if your music isn’t unlistenable, I don’t want to hear it.

We just announced our first Salmon Universe release for 2025 and it’s a cracker. Excited to have these fantastic musicians on the label, plus it’s our first ever ensemble release. Listen on link below 💿

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? That Spotify makes fake artist playlists and has completely gutted the music industry.

Pretty excited to play at Margate Arts Club for Margate Electronics tomorrow (Fri June 13) Supporting Y Bül Bül and Sculpture www.outsavvy.com/event/26885/...

Scoring music for factual entertainment: acoustic guitar, shaker, pizzicato strings and the truth

So how are we all doing in the £22-including-postage-for-an-ambient-cassette era?

Kobo or Kindle?

Went into the Australian High Commission last night and had a great chat with some industry professionals 💅 🇦🇺
