"Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a planet where the sound of rain falling is like Bach?”

This quote from Oliver Sacks via Bill Hayes (Insomniac City) is resonating now as I sit in a cabin in the northwest coast rainforest.

It’s true. I’ve detected zero fuckery in my use of it. I love the clarity of the design objective. Lean, beautiful and functional.

Incredible music. Just watched "Echos" the other day, the short documentary on her from a few years back. It's great to have this glimpse into her thinking and reflections as an artist in her nineties with such a deep body of work and life.

Absolutely heartbroken to learn of the passing of the singular, inimitable Eliane Radigue.

I have everything to say and nothing to say so I'll simply pass along this link to an interview I gave on Eliane and her work. She is now, officially, eternal.

it’s twin peaks day ☕

Nice one!

I’ve been similarly obsessed with them— recently become re-obsessed with I through a 6hr slowed version of it that I can really lose myself in.

Amazing. Thanks—connected and running the test build now!

Thank you. It is a thing of beauty. Curious: Will the desktop app ever include last.fm integration or will that piece remain strictly iOS?

Happy Birthday, Ms. Simone.

Momentum is building in support of this motion from @seanorr.bsky.social and @ptfry.bsky.social on the agenda next week at City Hall.

Amazing. Yeah—totally get how it’s not everyone’s jam but I really like not having to assign a rating to art. Much prefer to keep the nuances to conversation.

Hey @hinderson.com — top of the season!! Curious—have you considered a simple like button for releases in addition to ratings? For people like me who don’t rate records but still like to show some love?

Amazing

Indeed ❄️✨✌️
