My friend & collaborator Iain Morrison has started making visual art. This is a screen-print of his work 'They Are Not Birds Of The Isle Of Lewis', now hanging on the wall of my studio. I love it. Making/selling art is hard. Support us where and when you can. And fuck AI. iainmorrison.bigcartel.com

When choosing a tape deck, make sure you get one that has both wow AND flutter. "Wow" is basically how cool the deck looks and "flutter" means your heart starts beating fast when you think about it. So you really want both of those features.

advice from the future: hard disk storage, in your personal possession and control tech companies will ditch us in a heartbeat – or trap us in ever more onerous and usatory t&c contracts – whenever it suits them. what we consider 'ours' is vulnerable and exploitable under contract. take it back

Great show by Earth and @maudthemoth.bsky.social at Glasgow's Room 2 last night. I bought Earth's debut LP back in 1993, but this was my first time seeing them live. Great set, underpinned by Adrienne Davies' incredible slow-drumming.

Starmer is the emptiest politician in living memory. A total void. No beliefs, other than power. No charisma. A void of a man. It’s genuinely unnerving.

if your favorite critic doesn’t engage at all with art from their local music scene and only writes about records from within the PR-approved ecosystem, they are fucking up big time

Kinda fascinating seeing everyone lose their shit over Kneecap. Calls from on high to ban them, debates over whether they mean what they say, heads exploding over how they could be so provocative. People. May I introduce you to something called 'rap music'
