    Ok, so first let’s watch an awesome browser music video thing which replicates early internet. Very clever, lots of pop ups appear as part of the video and it brings back a load of tropes from the old days. You need to disable your adblock to allow the pop ups. So go watch it. Then…

    Haven’t done a LISTEN for a while. Iglooghost is a musician from south England who makes nice strange trippy music. He’s still going, pretty famous, I don’t really know much about him but it’s the kind of music that I like. It sounds a bit like broken machines speaking to each other. The descriptions that…

    My favourite legend is that Paul Robeson who was one of the biggest stars of his day and the number one African American star by a country mile did a world tour and at the time was going through a political awakening and was very outspoken as a black nationalist. But he came to England…

    So we land in this country, this place, this world. Everything is finished, cynicism is over, cynicism is not cool. Abroad has failed. The west has really failed. They are a joke, a clown country, a failed state Our Neighbours have some hope, but we know deep down, they are us. They will fail. They…

    https://kidhideous.bandcamp.com/album/our-lady-of-the-worthless-miracle New one by me. I think that there is a level of professionalism that is a bit of a step up, but I am the least professional person over 40. I like this album though, I used tutorial videos and got really into it. I mean, I know my music is decent, but it…

    The enemy comes in many forms. Always with a smile. One day the smile will be gone, when they can beat me Although I am not a social person I do move around a lot and meet a lot of different people, there is this weird civility at the moment, but also a horrific conflict.…
