hey- this is the intro to my #sci-fi #audio story, ADRIFT. I've been having a terrible time finishing it. I don't have a creative circle where I live for support, so if you'd listen & like or even share any feedback it would really help me out. 🙌 thank you. soundcloud.com/robert-scott...

1/2 Good morning Mystery Jukebox friends. Despite some jet lag, Kitty has set up in the party room today. Everyone may request 2 songs by using your tokens. Please remember to tip. Please review the rules Rules: michaelgallagherwrites.com/rules/ Do not reply here

Mystery Jukebox is tomorrow. Kitty will be returning to Wisconsin. We'll be setting up the dansette in the party room. Bring your tokens. michaelgallagherwrites.com/rules/

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched "The Substance" & "Freaked" share DNA? 🧬🤔 "Hokum" is good spookiness! 🐰 "Iron Lung" - the production's more interesting than the result 🩸 "Dr. Phibes" sequel is so silly 🤦 "Speak No Evil" - eh, the original was better 🙊 "The Roundup 3" - punchy copaganda! 👊

This week's albums! Boards of Canada über alles! ⬢ Revisiting my fave Kristin Hersh 😻 Arcane Voidsplitter bring cosmic atmospheric doom 🌌 H6LLB6ND6R rock outside of soundtracks, as well as in 'em 🤘 Tamikrest offer desert blues 🐫 The Main Ingredient do great soul 😎 UVB76 for bangin' techno ⚡️

Just finished "Version Control" by Dexter Palmer. Absolutely cracking tale of building a time mach- ahem, about building a _causality violation device_. Excellent characterization, very thought provoking. Amusingly, although the world is more advanced than ours, they don't use Git. 🤓 #BookSky

Post an album you've listed to 100+ times (First album I had on CD, so probably racked up 100+ listens in my teens. Haven't given any single album that many plays since I started scrobbling in 2008 though - not even my fave drifting off to sleep drone album!)

QTP with your favorite main protagonist in a video game that’s NOT Mario or Sonic. #GameSky

Sun's out, tums out! 🌞 #Caturday #CatsOfBlueSky

Saturday is Jukebox day! 🎉

Just finished "Dreamsnake" by Vonda N. McIntyre. Far future science-fantasy, excellently done! Easy to see how it won the Hugo, Nebula and Locus awards! Hat-tip to @snowfloe.bsky.social for introducing me to it - I don't think I've encountered McIntyre before... #BookSky

The countdown is on to The Mystery Jukebox and Kitty is trying out a new summer look and I, for one, approve. Come along and use your tokens wisely from 11 am (UK) tomorrow

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched "The Big Short" is relevant, still 🫠 "Dave Made a Maze" is "House of Leaves" played for laughs! 📦 "Ex Machina" = 🐐 "The Blob" is hokey fun 🪼 "Night Call" is a tense thriller - no action hero tropes raises the stakes! 🫣 "The Brood" really stuck the landing! 👩‍🍼

This week's albums! New Aldous Harding! 😻 Really dig Chalk's post-punk/electro/industrial 🖤 Marisa Anderson tours world folk guitar 🌍 Anouar Brahem's oud jazz is dreamy 🐪 New Constellations are fun indie pop 🌌 General Sherman do off-kilter folk 🫶 Bleech 9:3 do modern grunge 🎸

Just finished "Obsidio" by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff, 3rd & final book in the "Illuminae" series. This one's back to being BSG-esque, but this time the season where they're all stuck on an occupied planet. Yeah, fun YA series overall. Definitely enjoyed all the narrative typography! 🤓 #BookSky

I've got through the TOS era movies in my great Star Trek watch, and have now started TNG. The second episode is a goldmine of gifs!

This is lovely! An 11 min psychedelic film blending several Cindy Lee tracks together. Fun model work - overall feels more than a little Lynchian... 😻

@mtgallagher.bsky.social @jetboyjetgirl.bsky.social @stillhonest.bsky.social @mmshere.bsky.social @tactless-skull.bsky.social Hello folks! 👋 Let's plan out June's Jukebox host schedule. 🗓️ Honest, you're ok to take the 27th? Who'd like to take the 6th, 13th and 20th?

1/2 Welcome , it's Mystery Jukebox time, and we are ready to kick off Memorial Day Weekend. Kitty has set up her Dansette in the woods of St Francis Wisconsin. We're serving traditional cookout food with drinks today. No Reply Here

Mystery Jukebox is tomorrow. Kitty has been picked up at the airport. She'll be setting up the Dansette for everyone to get an early start on Memorial Day weekend. Take a walk in a place once called Nojoshing. Follow the sound of music and you'll find her truck. 11am to 11 pm UK time.

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched I saw people say "Normal" was a US "Hot Fuzz", & that set jarring expectations 😒 "Star Trek" IV! 🖖🐋 "The Abominable Dr. Phibes" was great fun! Excellent Vincent Pricery! 💀 "Mother of Flies" was very well done - great soundtrack too! 🧙‍♀️

This week's albums! New Toadies is rockin'! 🐸 Love Calexico's Tex-Mex alt-country! 🤠 Bombus do fun heavy metal 🤘 Plump DJs bring banging breakbeat 🕺 Wailin Storms sound like The Cult doin stoner rock! ✌️ Klaus Schulze is hypnotic 😵‍💫 Not sure how Megan Moroney's pop country got in the queue 🧐

Introduce yourself with ten bands you've seen live In Flames ' Ministry Yob A Perfect Circle Mogwai Icebreaker with BJ Cole Acoustic Ladyland Candidate And So I Watch You From Afar Tori Amos ( lookit me, acrostic-ing it up! 🤓 )

Just finished "The Raw Shark Texts" by Steven Hall. Delightful horror/urban fantasy about an amnesiac man receiving letters from his former self, warning him that he's being pursued by a creature that eats memories! 🦈 Plus, there's a cat called Ian. #BookSky

This is a cat check point: relinquish your most recent cat picture on your phone (I've been trying to do that "make your cat look like the moon" thing but haven't got a good one yet)
