Another Friday, another weekly round-up. This is, as readers should know by now, a look at new music, upcoming music and events, and any other music news that might be worth talking about. In addition I also round up what has been on amodelofcontrol.com in the past week to.

A reminder that amodelofcontrol has at last begun a podcast series. It is – to start with at least – the a-z of industrial, and tranmission: 001 is now online. You can also get it via RSS, on iTunes, on Stitcher. transmission: 002 will be available at some point in the next week.

Last Tuesday I began my end-of-year coverage with Countdown: 2017: Compilations and Re-issues, and this coming Tuesday will be the best tracks.

A last, last reminder that with my DJ:traumahound hat on, I’ll be DJing at the last JUDDER (details in the events listing below) tonight along with a host of others.

If you want to submit anything to be included here? E-mail me (You know what to do with that to make it work, right?), comment/message on Facebook at the amodelofcontrol.com page, and over on Twitter (@amodelofcontrol).

Finally – this will be the last of these for 2017, and the roundup will return in the first week of January.
