Shocking footage from the White House. Zelensky was right to cut short and go home. Not sure who this is meant to impress at this point, except Putin.

I loved David Lynch, he had a powerful creative light and even though his stories were disturbing, his visual aesthetic and sound design resonated strongly with me. And he was funny! I was v happy to visit his favourite LA diner, and I also learned transcendental meditation on his recommendation. 🫡

Happy new year. Not to be flippant about the fact that 2024 was a horrific shitshow for a lot of humanity, but in my small corner it was a bit of a rough one, so I’m hoping 2025 is less shite for everyone. Following a set of disappointments I’m determined to get more music into the world in 2025. 🍀

Hey, remember to clean and demagnetize your cassette deck heads tonight. You don't want everyone to be disappointed by the poor state of your tape deck transport on Christmas morning!

Generative AI is theft. And this tech needs to be curbed now. The UK government has proposed a change to the copyright law which would benefit AI companies, meaning AI companies would be able to train on British copyrighted work without a licence. www.gov.uk/government/c...

Child Poverty % (children living in households below the minimum wage) Denmark 2.4% Finland 3.2% Norway 3.6% Sweden 3.6% The UK 32.1% All four of those countries have child benefits, paid by taxing the rich, that make it almost impossible for a child to be in poverty.

Needed to get off at Ashford International after a night out and walked through the Eurostar ghost station to the weird car park. Love this kind of stuff. . #ghoststation #rain #storm #carpark #kent #ashford #eurostar

I knew cassettes are super popular with young people in Japan rn but as someone who has released on cassette it’s heartwarming to see this trend also happening closer to home www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

They don't want you to live, they want you to work and then they want you to die. Every day they drill this message into you and bleat on about their profits. Every day you need to reject it.

Thanks everyone for the follows and apologies for the delay in following back — pls bear with me! And if we’re not yet acquainted may I introduce myself as an electronic musician/producer working with cavernous corroded synths and big murky drum beats, e.g. pgwarren-cis.bandcamp.com/album/how-we...

Had a quirky dream where I was showing an interested Paul McCartney a modular synth and then mentioned I make music and would be available to play synths for him, and he turned to me and quite flatly said, in his trademark voice, “I do that myself Pete,” — and that was the end of my dream, basically

If you’re not familiar with this Vangelis inspired charity comp and you’re a synth-head I highly recommend it — it’s full of great tracks. So many people have approached me about my contribution Los Angeles. Don’t miss it.

I know multiple people in their early ‘50s who are burning out — and I feel like no one is acknowledging this unseen professional and societal crisis of the current world: when you’ve been working flat-out for decades the tank is just empty — and retirement seems like a distant, unattainable fantasy

Re: UK budget. If the government raise the financial burden on anyone below the level of multimillionaire then they deserve to be bundled into a rocket and fired at the sun. Tax the rich. Tax the corporations. Grrr.

It's easy to feel jaded with 1.8 million new songs uploaded every month. Through peers, radio, podcasts, print, blogs, and targeted algorithms I listen to a tiny portion of releases in my ballpark. Out of that very little lands. But then you hear a track that changes you. Yes, it's still important.

The coconut marketing association are doing a great job it seems in convincing manufacturers that the public really really want to wipe their buttholes with coconut oil and that no other oils from nuts, fruits or vegetables are desirable nor suitable for buttwipes

Just caught this house spider in a cassette box (my patented method of capture) — not very big but a fine specimen nonetheless. But I am noticing the house spiders getting bigger and bolder as we get into September in the UK — Autumn seems to awaken them. This post is sponsored by TDK (not really).
