Just had one too many glasses of wine and started messing about and made a sort of 150bpm speed garage track with some warped Italo house piano stabs.. Really should stop, make some herbal tea and go to bed!

A listening party, due to start any moment here... woodfordhalse.bandcamp.com/merch/wf-96-...

Join us!

In a little under 24 hours the mighty @woodfordhalse.bsky.social label are having a listening party for the new compilation album of which I'm a small part! Join us for shared listening and banter! woodfordhalse.bandcamp.com/merch/wf-96-...

This evening's entertainment is the fantastic new one from @audioobscura.bsky.social

"You’ll be hard pressed to find a better, more complete vision in this field of musical, sonic and field recorded experiment this year... this is a most lovely if sometimes mysterious and alien work of art to lose yourself in for an hour." my new album, so says @monolithcocktail.bsky.social

Quite the lovely write up pf my new album from the Monolith Cocktail crew! Thank you!

The most welcome return of @audioobscura.bsky.social Sounding wonderful, Neil #SaturdaySpooling

Spending warm summer days indoors, editing video of Roman ruins that I have made.. among which I'm seaching for traces, echos of Boudica, a queen of the ancient British Iceni tribe. I'm layering in field recordings and some haunting strings. It's a deep dive for a new long term project.

@audioobscura.bsky.social The post has been and I have a new tape

New @audioobscura.bsky.social album just arrived. Looking forward to this one!

The birds outside are going for it today! Loud and close to the house.. and the winds dropped so going to stick my microphones outside for a bit.

I made this, music inspired by looking out my window - also a field recording from the same window was used. Free download is anyone wants it via soundcloud soundcloud.com/audio-obscur...

For 700 consecutive weeks @disquiet.bsky.social has been posting weekly music challenges called the Disquiet Junto. I've been doing then off and on since week 189 (I think!) This weeks challenge 'Share a peek out your window and some sounds inspired by the view'. disquiet.com/2025/05/29/d...

Did loads of stuff out today with the kids, it's half term this week in Norfolk. We seen cool things, laughed, ate and cried together.. but as I don't have a smart phone anymore I never had to stop and document any of it! Quite nice just having the feeling, the memory and glow of the day!

Just giving the latest @audioobscura.bsky.social release a first listen through the headphones on the way to a night out. After a lengthy (for him) silence, Neil really has come up with the goods. Highly recommended. audioobscura.bandcamp.com/album/as-lon...

This is very lovely indeed.

Off to the post office later this morning to post more of these. I've 13 tapes left so if anyone wants one, snap it up and it'll be on its way today!

Today, I have mainly been listening to the #NewMusic from @audioobscura.bsky.social and #ElectronicMusic fans #MusicSky peeps, it's blooming good #NowPlaying As Long As Gravity Persists On Holding Me To This Earth 👇 audioobscura.bandcamp.com/album/as-lon...
