Best new music I've heard for some time. It's quite something that there are people out there who can make the electric guitar sound like a new thing. @waldosgift.bsky.social waldosgift.bandcamp.com/album/malcol...

My other 2024 gig saw the collective Improvizone getting together for the first time since 2019, with this set at Heart of Noise at the Junction in Cambridge. It started #ambient and ended up going #krautrock #spacerock, with a nod to Floyd's 'Interstellar Overdrive'. youtu.be/mWhKhQWDrm0?...

50 years ago today, Keith Jarrett played one of the most extraordinary concerts in #jazz history. He arrived at the Köln Opera House in the middle of a rainstorm, hungry, sleepless and in pain, to find a dodgy stand-in piano. He made it work, and the rest is music history. #keithjarrett #kölnconcert

‘No woman can make herself chic if she is not chic herself.’ Born 130 years ago today, Cristóbal #Balenciaga was #fashion #design’s great sculptor. He worked with stiffer fabrics than those favoured by his French counterparts, allowing him to chase shapely simplicity in everything he did.
