Time for a thread of my favourite records from 2025. Might go on a bit. Not in order, but Bitchin Bajas' Inland See is maybe the album I played most in the past 12 months (along with the boot of their show in Glob in October) 1/ bitchinbajas.bandcamp.com/album/inland...

The Watchers by Lynn Chadwick (1960)

Soon it will be time to make the Fruit Cocktail Eggnog Pie.

[OC] Brazil National Congress - Oscar Niemeyer r/brutalism

"The submerged granite ruins near Sein Island, a Breton island in the Atlantic Ocean, are among the oldest large stone structures ever found in France, and may have inspired an ancient local legend about a city called Ys that vanished under the waves." www.404media.co/scientists-d...

Just finished listening through HEX FUNKING SYNTHESIS by whose body is this on @evelrecords.bsky.social and it's really very good. Cursed electroid bangers, reflective drifty bits, slow and dubby burners, gritty industrial minimalism and more... evel.bandcamp.com/album/hex-fu...

This will fill you with festive good fear [complimentary]

Bricolage Advent Calendar Week 3 This week we picked another four releases at random and have done a wee code giveaway. If you follow us on Bandcamp, check your emails or the community page on the Bricolage bandcamp. First come first served. bricolageglasgow.bandcamp.com

Spooky Advent Day 17: The Stone Tape by Nigel Kneale. An ancient evil is unleashed by an electronics research team working in a renovated Victorian mansion with much older origins, apparently haunted by a maid falling to her death. Broadcast as BBC Ghost Story for Christmas in 1972.

Wally Wood.

Yep, that's one tall tree. Wonder if they occasionally add a David Tennant ornament?

If you want to know everything about "Playground Love", listen to our Song Exploder episode, which also features Sofia Coppola, Thomas from Phoenix, and The Virgin Suicides' music supervisor Brian Reitzell → songexploder.net/air

Ben Sparks made this wonderful GeoGebra app that lets you create a twisted band (Möbius strip, etc.) and cut it in half or into thirds. As someone who uses GeoGebra quite a bit: Wow! www.geogebra.org/m/v5z33vth

I haven't done an illustrated advent for a while & I wasn't planning on doing one this year. Despite the simplicity I always end up spending way too much time on them. However, I've started to feel a little festive this weekend so I thought I'd dip in and do a few days. #ArtAdvent

A customer fell in love with one of these on Saturday. It's always lovely to see people really connect with your work, particularly the first time it happens with a newly created print. If you're feeling it too, there's time to have one of these arrive before Christmas....handmadebyhaggy.etsy.com

This is a fantastic thread of compilations. As someone who's released a comp myself, I have opinions, especially on the ones which Mark points out have pretty obvious tracklists, but this one in particular has really stayed with me over the years

#NowPlaying “We were the swinging 60’s – the world of the Beatles. The Folk Mass broke new ground. We sang the Mass in English for the first time and the style was our style.” Frances Gordon If you like the idea of the Catholic Mass sung in the style of Belle & Sebastian/Vashti this is for you.
