This guys showed up last week & I've only been able to try it for a few minutes, enough to day I like it. The idea is to use it as a creative #looper to be resampled in LoopyPro. This will be some sort of replacement for the MakeNoise Mimeophon I loved so much when I dabbled with Eurorack.

proceeds may go to the John Cage trust 😝 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A twisted definition of #freedom & self-victimization are the 2 pillars of #neoliberalism, which is authoritarian capitalism. We need to redefine what freedom is & re-assign responsibilities to see who's the victim of who. #jeffbezos #washingtonpost

Planned Capitalism is the very definition of Neoliberalism as stated by one of its father, Walter Whitmann in his book "the good society". It is indeed the so-called "free market" with state interventionism. People must realize the market stopped being "free" in the 1930s and the game is rigged.

I guess we all know Amulets for his tape-loop experiments but his new album is something else... Not even sure it can still be considered #ambient but it's definitely worth a listen! amulets.bandcamp.com/album/not-ar...

Dear fellow artists, How are people supposed to support you if you don't give the people some means to support you ? There are only links to streaming platforms here: no Bandcamp, no store that sells digital, CDs or vinyl records, no merch... What are you fucking doing ? 🤷‍♂️ #supporttheartist

It might not be obvious but Tricky is one of my huge influences. Happy Birthday Maxinquaye !

The perks of being single… :p #valentinesday

#Newpedalday ! I’ve been a huge fan of the WMD Geiger Counter, a wavetable #distortion / bit crusher, and used it a lot in Le Principe d’Inconstance, my first improvised #live-looping soundscapes project. The Subdecay Noise Theory is a simpler, yet more versatile of the GC.

A nice video essay about... (I guess we'll call it) Liminal #ambient. The music, its origins & social implications www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Tev...

Once again a reminder:

If you need to regain some faith in #humanity, here is a heartwarming story about a very famous artist gifting a free guitar to a not-so-famous #ambient #guitarist. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aCX...

She would make an excellent #stand-up comedian. The laughter trigger she's using here is called "benign retaliation"... not-so benign here..

Trump & co are toddlers. Handle them like toddlers.

Thank you,Susan.

Not that anyone's listening to us anyway, but if you do, hopefully it's not here 👇

Art, and the efforts needed to make it, is life affirming. Those silicon valley techbros dipshits HATE life, so much that the stupidest of them all wants to colonize a DEAD planet, so much that they want to kill everything that makes life beautiful. They are our enemies & we must treat them as such

J'attaque l'enregistrement du 2nd podcast IRM consacré aux "oubliés de décembre". Pas vraiment convaincu par les stats du 1er ceci dit, pas même une centaine d'écoutes dont à peine 20 écoutes complètes des 2 parties, pas sûr que l'on continue régulièrement à moins d'un sursaut de réactions/partages.

I finally posted this message on Instagram. I decided to keep my pages as portfolios for the people who might stumble on them & existing followers. This way, I don’t erase the (free) work I did building those pages while not losing my time playing the rigged game of social media. (thread 1/2)

The Music Directory on Substack has compiled this huge list of list of what #music people enjoyed in 2024 (including yours truly). Most are very personal which means you’re sure to discover records that are not on every end-of-year-list. Go & explore ! musicdirectory.substack.com/p/your-best-...

This is my 1st morning with a fully functioning heater (after 5 days with no heat at all preceded by 3 weeks of issues) & I get to listen to a new beautiful @quietdetails.bsky.social release: This is luxury at this point ! :)

Coucou les lecteurs d'IRM, On a donc relancé le podcast hier : indierockmag.bandcamp.com/album/irm-po... Mais ça prend du temps, et outre les artistes parfois sous-exposés on fait surtout ça pour vous, donc on attend vos retours et partages, dont dépendra la pérennisation ou non de cet exercice. 😉

Allez c'est parti je lance l'écoute du nouveau Cannibal Ox - OUI Y A UN NOUVEAU CAN OX (et bon OK vu le titre ça n'est probablement que Vast Aire mais bon on s'en fout) - RHA 2025 JE T'AIME DÉJÀ. 😀
