Two songs that regularly pop into my head, even tho I don't actively try to listen to them, nor are they favorites: Hey Jude by The Beatles There She Goes by The La's

I took this and other We Are Numbered_ stuff off streaming a while ago and hearing it now I don't know why. Like, I've forgiven its faults over time. Or I'm just not seeing them now. Whatever. I quite like this one, actually. music.apple.com/us/album/in-...

Random memory: In junior college my English professor asked me if I was gonna write the Great American Novel and when I said yes he said, Too bad, it's already been written.

Happy Mom's Day to all you moms.

The 90s is definitely a very prominent influence with the guitar kids these days. youtu.be/U_vBDWZUUHc?...

I've sort of been lamenting the death of rock these last couple decades so I'm glad to see kids are out there learning to play guitars. youtu.be/a95G2GzB3t0?...

So, apparently there's a whole scene of youngsters making guitar music these days. I dig it but hope someone eventually makes something that's not so retro. Fingers crossed. youtu.be/Sry-CJbhx18?...

This Stranger Things kid is talented. youtu.be/hZWjRffNyeI?...

Industrial/Electronic stuff from the past you might have missed... CHEMLAB You may have missed them in the 90s as they didn't stick around long. They're one of few that were influenced by Ministry that had their own sound. Burn Out at the Hydrogen Bar is a classic. music.apple.com/us/album/bur...

Unfortunately, not many have read my apocalyptic sci-fi novel, The Sun My Destiny, but those that have call it their favorite of all my books. Check it out! www.amazon.com/Sun-Destiny-...

Industrial/Electronic stuff from the past you might have missed... BABYLAND A two-piece. Dan Gatto (vocals, programming) and Micheal Smith (drums, programming) of L.A. Personally, I think of them as legends of the glory days of industrial (80s/90s). music.apple.com/us/album/a-t...

Narrator: Bandcamp did not let him keep it all.

If you often confuse stress and anxiety with excitement, you too might enjoy chess.

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene... don't en passant me just because you can.

Golden State Pinball Festival brought to you by the Northern California Pinball Association Niche communities are always interesting.

Courage is the word for beer.

San Diego is the St Louis of the West. Don't @ me.

It's official! My BRAND SPANKING NEW album, Knight Takes: Official Soundtrack to the Imaginary film, by Mimes, is out early on Bandcamp. It's my instrumental, chess-themed album. Dark, mysterious, melancholic. It's Bandcamp Friday. Support an indie artist! mimes77.bandcamp.com/album/knight...

When I decided to move on from my first electronic music project, WE ARE NUMBERED_, I thought, just burn it all down, take everything offline and move on. Instead, I left the first album up because it's actually pretty good. And I also intended to leave the 2nd album up, but Distrokid is (cont...)

Night of the Comet never gets old.
