It's good to be back. We moved back home ten days ago, after seven months away whilst some insurance work was going on after a lightning strike in April last year. Inevitably there is a delay in broadband being returned - it is now back now. It is amazing how much you miss it, when twenty or so years ago it wasn't there.
Be cautious everyone, keep well. In a month or two you won't regret missing a few events.
Totally agree GP. We are due to go to Jordan and Petra in two weeks. We are hoping it will be cancelled, otherwise we'll loose a lot by not going if the tour still runs. But given my age, nearly 70, it will be best to stay at home
Well, I've just made it through all 12 discs and it's been a real treat. It conjured up visions of my youth and my sister (the oldest) the accordion player in our household...long gone but never forgotten. I saw myself sitting in a chair in front of my oldest brother's Zenith Console Short Wave Radio that my Dad rebuilt for him, spinning the dial around picking up all sorts of frequencies and noises, just having a ball! Plus, it was great to hear some pieces in their entirety where previously I'd only heard selected tracks on other albums. I also found my new favourite track title "The Day I Disconnected the Erase Head and Forgot to Reconnect It"
Ps- re: Toiletpaper, I also don't get it. I also don't know why people would bump elbows after we've been advised to cough and sneeze into it. I'm with rostasi- don't forget the soap!

He has worked in collaboration across the arts providing music for Luke Fowler’s film ‘The Poor Stockinger, the Luddite Cropper and the deluded followers of Joanna Southcott’, and Fabio Quaranta’s show at Milan Fashion Week 2020.

Microstoria is a side project of Oval's Markus Popp and Jan St. Werner of Mouse on Mars. Combining Oval's fetish for CD scarification with MoM's odd instrumentation and breezy, subtlely inchoate arrangements, the pair's combined efforts come off much as one might expect. The group debuted with a pair of albums on the German Mille Plateaux label falling somewhere between the more engaging techno-exotica of St. Werner's main focus and the sometimes gruelling abstraction of Popp's. Both releases were reissued by Stateside post-rock imprint Thrill Jockey (Tortoise, Rome, Trans Am), which also released the remix effort Reprovisers in 1997.
COLD SPRING - 23 THEMES 4 GENESIS BREYER P-ORRIDGE
R.I.P. Genesis Breyer P-Orridge. We first spoke and wrote to each other
in 1986, in 1987 giving me a PSYCHIC TV track to use on the first Cold
Spring cassette, and kickstarting a journey for me for the next 30+
years, including many, many albums with Gen and he/r projects over the
years. Irreplaceable, this world is emptier. Justin Mitchell | EDEN 222.
Paul Metzger Live at WFMU on Bethany's Show on 10/2/2005 archive.org The banjo like you've never heard it before. Sometimes Metzger's "modified" banjo recalls a flute playing Carnatic ragas, then takes turns towards Derek Bailey-style textural elements in long, meditative pieces that build like one long single phrase. Paul drops in to the WFMU studios on a tour that brings him to the east coast from his residence in Minnesota.
First-ever reissue of Vivien Goldman’s legendary „Launderette“ 7“,
produced with Adrian Sherwood and Public Image Limited’s John Lydon and
Keith Levene in 1981. A strictly limited one-off pressing of 500 copies
worldwide.
. .
First 7“ release with two exclusive tracks by newcomers Johnny
Tramuntana from Perpignan (France). Limited one-off pressing of which
only 100 copies are available from Staubgold/Cougouyou Music.
Children of the infamous Perpignan Garage Rock’n’Roll movement, Johnny
Tramuntana add Surf and French Pop to their striking formula to make
their listeners smile and dance.
