A 7" blended red and blue vinyl record with sleeve and signed jacket, held up in bright morning sunlight.
Got my copy of "Go Ask Alice" signed by Freddy Stone and @goddamnchan.bsky.social at the #RAPFerreira show last night 😁 the vinyl looks cool and the music is 🔥🔥🔥 @filthyrecs.bsky.social #musicsky #independentmusic
A portrait of Bob Power in a studio leaning against a mixing board.
Salute to a man who was probably the single most important studio engineer of my most formative years and beyond. He shaped sound, sharpened samples and varnished vocals. Tribe, De La, The Roots, Badu, D’Angelo and too many more. A true wizard.
RIP Bob Power. 🕊️
My first music release "Better Late Than Never" is out now! Live instruments + samples working together 🔊 preview the whole thing for free at filthyrecs.com
Bonus points if you can ID the sweatshirt quote 🌌

Just took a political polling survey (US). "Stopping billionaires from unraveling the rule of law" was conspicuously absent from the list of "important issues" I had to choose from. If you can't name it, you can't fight it.
Yoooooo 60W USB-C PD at each seat?! Good looks Southwest!
Cassette sales have increased 400% recently - I posit that it's not because cassettes are good, but because Streaming is so, so bad (see eg www.prsformusic.com/m-magazine/n...)
And just as mysteriously as the permanent ban arrived, it slunk back into the murky depths of automated security/policy enforcement
Just got "permanently banned" on reddit but haven't posted/commented/upvoted/etc in a month? Normally wouldn't care, but account was u/djktf 😢 (automated "security" apparatus cause me so much grief, while state-sponsored bot farms just move on to u/grandiloquent-beeflantern-814) #reddit #whatever

Ok, daylily gets a pass, I just parsed it wrong in the .03s it was on screen 🤪

Here's to reducing e-waste & maximizing repairability 🦾 Very impressed so far, well done @frame.work #laptop13 especially love the 3:2 screen 🤌 and that I can have full size SD and a skittlebag of extra ports in my laptop bag. Last time I was this excited about a laptop, it was a powerbook 5300cs 😅
A sampler and turntable on a rug on the floor with assorted records around them.
Just wanted to share this peaceful moment of contentment. The world is rough rn, but not everything is bad all the time. #simplepleasures #vinyl #sampling #mpc
Thanks for the tips! (FTR, I was asking specifically re: DnB, not golden eras generally, though good to know! I always took it purely figuratively/metaphorically...)
(I'll listen to the mix, I just want a lil' more context for the golden age characterization, if you'd be so kind 🙏)
Tell me more! I used to salivate over cooled-out moving shadow 10"s and amen roller Congo Natty white labels BITD, but drifted away when I started having trouble telling all the Technical Itch releases apart and Jon B released "American Girls." Who should I exercise my subs with in late 2025? 😁🔊
Congrats to @goddamnchan.bsky.social on selling out the "Chanta Claus" LP! 🎅 Thank you to everyone who supported, whether you bought a copy, liked/shared a post, or followed us on social 🙏 stay tuned for 2026 -- we've got some amazing releases on deck 🔊🔊🔊

I wish my guidance counselor had mentioned "Sweetwater Sales Engineer" as a career path. "Enthusiastically discuss music gear all day while testing and learning about new music gear" is probably as close to a vocation as I'll ever get. 🤷♂️
We're running one of our rare sales thru December 1st on Filthyrecs.com

Violent J (of ICP): owns homophobic past, strives for better future; Fred Durst (of Limp Bizkit): vocal supporter of trans rights; Guy Fieri (of flavortown): generous philanthropist.
A stark contrast to the regulars at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave 😒
Thank you! I'll check them out!
well this certainly accelerated my move to @proton.me 😮💨 *nix/BSD OS, Libre office, Brave browser, Proton mail, Bluesky social, Signal chat, self-hosted NextCloud & immich, what else am I missing in my soverign nerd kit?? #privacy #security #anonymity
If you're in Portland (ME) tonight 5-7pm, stop by Moody Lords for @filthyrecs.bsky.social Filthy Friday with special guests @waxfed.bsky.social. Later on, catch me at Blue/BPM with MANUEL & co for a Santana tribute. 🔥
A 12" compilation album cover, titled "Heavy Metal," listing a somewhat disparate group of artists, including several that would not be considered "heavy metal."
Who is your favorite #heavymetal act -- Dr. John? Foghat? Van Morison??
