This encounter also inspired @thenightmonitor.bsky.social to capture the eeriness and wonder of them in this fine recording

Five years ago, I released my strange little alternative Christmas track 'Dance of the Mince Pie Martians' on 25th December 2020, and it's amazing to see it's reached over 445,000 plays on Spotify 🌲👽🌲

Thanks to everyone who's listened, and best wishes for the holiday season and beyond 🛸

A little clip of me recording what would become Cold Witness to a Sky Crash on a snowy February day back in 2020.

Bandcamp Friday is upon us! I’ve got a new album of demos/sketches available for the occasion. The release comes with two different album covers, so choose your fav!

Thank you to anyone who supports ANY independent artist today.

Much love,
SFERRO

The Night Monitor Soundtracking unexplained phenomena.

Friday's show locked in for @campradio.bsky.social. This will be the first 'official' Jupiter Room show for ages. Can't wait for you all to hear it. Amazing lineup of underground electronics. Friday 20th December 5pm CET here listen.camp

If you're in West Yorkshire in need of something to do, why not wander through the well- preserved walls of the town's historic castle or explore the rugged beauty of Frickley Park? Alternatively, you could visit the 1950s council house in Pontefract where a family were violently terrorised by a poltergeist called The Black Monk (or Fred to those who knew him). This is textbook territory for Blackpool musician Neil Scrivin's The Night Monitor project. In August 1966, the Pritchard family moved into 30 East Drive and the appearance of inexplicable dust deposits and green foam bubbling from the taps soon progressed to the slashing of family photographs and slapped faces. Scrivin largely avoids moments of overt violence - "Invisible Hands" and "A Study In Destructive Haunting" opt for subtle and sustained electronic dread, capturing the queasy internal terror of the victims. Doomlode 2, from another of Scrivin's aliases, displays no such restraint, immediately turning the nuclear fallout dial to 11. "Destroy Civilisation" drops snippets of chilling dialogue, possibly culled from public information films such as Protect And Survive, while martial synths march heavy boots over fire scorched land. In fact, the whole thing feels wind-whipped and bomb-charred - "Frozen Fire" and "Much Better Than A Human Being" don't so much suggest nuclear paranoia as grim, post-fallout dystopias.
