Finally got round to hearing last week’s @darktrain.bsky.social on #Mixcloud and the segue from my ‘Nearby Exotica’ (on #walktowalkstation) into ‘Spoonbender’ from @polypores.bsky.social really did work. The link from that into the piece by #Score, thereafter, was rather nice too!

‘Nearby Exotica’, from the #walktowalkstation EP, is on #DarkTrain @darktrain.bsky.social tomorrow. It’s track two and something by the mighty @polypores.bsky.social follows - I’m fascinated (a bit daunted?) to hear that segue! Really thrilled to have another song of mine on the show though :-)

Delighted that #walktowalkstation is included in “featured artists” section of the @revivalsynth.bsky.social website this month. To celebrate I will listen to another featured act and post a review here in the next few days :-)

From the health of washing machines (Calgon) to that of people (in GP waiting rooms); how therapeutic is this EP? Thanks for listening & posting either way :-) #walktowalkstation

A white painted interior wall, with two clocks (also white, including the numbers, but with black hour & minute hands and blue second hands) placed one above the other. Underneath each clock is a place name, in black capital type on gold rectangular backgrounds. The upper place name is Ramsgate and the lower Margate. The Margate clock indicates a time of 12.59 whereas the Ramsgate one shows 13.04. The edge of a white-painted window frame is visible on the right edge of the image.

The cover shot for #walktowalkstation was taken in Margate (one of my #QY10 rail destinations) and I was back there today, to see @danthompson33.bsky.social. At Marine Studios he showed me these clocks. Ramsgate has its own meridian and there must be a song in that…

QY10 Ditties, by ireless 24 track album

‘QY10 Ditties’ by @ireless.bsky.social is such an overt celebration of the instrument, I decided just to trigger other MIDI instruments from the doodlings I’d composed on my #QY10. This led to outline structures for seven possible songs… #walktowalkstation ireless.bandcamp.com/album/qy10-d...

The working method for #walktowalkstation - writing on public transport - was inspired by the work of #Deerful (see her @wiaiwya.bsky.social LP ‘Peach’) and my choice of a #QY10 was purely practical. Thanks to @frbhrecs.bsky.social & @ireless.bsky.social that practicality took a creative turn…

Thanks very much for posting this.
Perhaps I should make an album titled ‘Songs To Extend The Life Of Your Washing Machine’ at some point in future :-)

The #walktowalkstation EP is here. This post is the start of a thread on its making, including intros to each song by hashtag alone and a few thanks to folk who helped on the journey that started with me and a Yamaha #QY10 on a train…

Thanks Terry. As Andrew says, I’ll be writing a thread on the EP (including how it was made) across the next few days :-) #walktowalkstation

Thanks Terry, Keith is going to expand further on how it was written over the next few days.

Can’t imagine much music has been written in this way before.

Yes, it all started out by taking a Yamaha #QY10 on some train journeys a few months ago. Four songs that are indeed “fifteen-minutes of optimistic lo-fi electronica escapism”; I’ll tell something of their stories here once #walktowalkstation is released on Friday :-)
