I dreamt that my dad survived and that he woke up, not only better - but younger too … as if not only the last week of his had been a bad dream, but the previous 20 years some kind of inconvenience too. Remembering nothing.
Stunning work
But even if that turns out to be the case, they also offer something else that has been missing from UK politics for decades. The permission to hope for alternative futures outside the narrow neoliberal of the now.
I like alternatives. You only evolve if you experiment.
Plenty of cynical people here quick to shoot down the Green surge in the UK as naive and doomed to failure. That the Greens do not have detailed plans but broad ideological goals that will collapse the moment they meet reality.
That might be true. It might falter…

Fascinating to find I am jammed between ‘Experimental Electronic Fen’ and ‘Experimental music void’
I sent ChatGPT an audio file of my music and it said it sounded like a series of fart sound effects.

Just FYI. 5 brand new longish tracks of textured reflection that possibly sound like someone attempting to rip Deepchord off but doing the entire recording session on a very breezy Lancastrian moor. 1 RT = 1 Prayer. Jah Bless.
It may not be obvious from my previous work, but my inspiration to produce has always been driven by artists like @dj-surgeon.bandcamp.com and the Sandwell District crew, rather than more traditional ambient musicians. So techno was always on the cards.

I released a small album; part ambient, part techno. All me. In this age of oversaturation I'm grateful for a few ears taking the time to listen. For those of you who like to hoard FLAC files the old school way like me, I'll include some BC codes below.

It’s brilliant, really… brilliant.
That’s an insane line up.
I’m not sure if it’s advancing age or just general exhaustion, but I am really whittling down the tools and methods I use to make music. Gone are the days of chasing the latest synth or sound library.
Stripping it to the bone presents its own challenges but I’m having a lot more fun.

I grew up here at this time. Knackered doesn’t even begin to describe it.
Norman Cook after you insult big beat.
Thanks, turns out they are just down the road from me!
Tape ordered, thanks!
On a related note, I don’t suppose you could recommend who you use for tape production? Thinking I might release my next album myself.
This album changed my life, like only a handful of others have. I don’t think I heard it until 1999… god knows what it would have been like discovering it in the musical landscape of ‘94.
Annual reminder: don't spray spring dandelions with roundup or similar chemicals. One flower can be visited by 100+ bees in a day, and your chemicals will kill all of them.
Strange. Guess I’ve been wrong, and hired people who don’t exist for 25 years.
Slave away to pay for private school, yet vote Green. The dissonance in my worldview is like a whiplash at times.
Ahh remote_ … ran Smallfish records if I remember correctly. I had all his early stuff but didn’t know he put this cassette out
This person doesn’t deserve music.
This sounds right up my alley
100% agree. The b-sides of Mellon Collie outstrip anything that came later.
No one wants to fucking hear ‘Teargarden by Kaleidyscope’ Billy.
