/Tuesday Ten /517 /Talk Dirty To Me
Last year, my friend Shreena offered two subject suggestions for future /Tuesday Tens, and while I asked for songs for both around then, I only ever posted one of them.
/Welcome to the Future /237 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 10-Feb 2023
Another busy week for releases – and new announcements this week. I’ve also added another swathe of events to the listing, too. Links below. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others, and also a catchup […]
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /025 – 07-Feb 2023
It’s a busy week this week, but I had the time to fit in another livestream.
/Tuesday Ten /516 /Perfect Disguise
I’ve long been fascinated by a large number of artists that choose not to play by the notion of fame. That is, shy away from the idea of presenting themselves, but instead putting themselves behind a cloak of anonymity, or behind a disguise. There have been a great many artists that have done so, as […]
/Welcome to the Future /236 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 03-Feb 2023
Bandcamp Friday seems to get crazier by the month – I’ve had a flood of emails from pretty much every artist or label I’ve ever bought from today, it seems. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website […]
/Tuesday Ten /515 /Tracks of the Month /Jan-23

/Tuesday Ten /514 /Smash It Up
Content warning: this post contains songs with descriptions of violence and assault – in some cases graphic and unflinching – and indeed discussion of those songs. This week, I turn to songs about violence. We seem to be living in turbulent times that all too often erupt in violence, but what is interesting here is […]
/Welcome to the Future /234 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 13-Jan 2023
Christmas suddenly feels some time ago already, and we’re now at full tilt into new music for 2023. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this website and others, and also a catchup of what I’ve posted recently.

/Tuesday Ten /513 /Tracks of the Month /Dec-22
We’ve hurtled into an already chaotic 2023, and the second Tuesday in, it’s time for the first /Tracks of the Month of the new year.
/DJ /A Certain Shade of Green /005 /06-Jan 2023
At some point back in the weeks before Christmas 2020 – and yes, booze might have been involved – as we had an evening watching a Nu-Metal countdown on one of the music channels, we resolved that it might be fun to do a night revolving around that.
/Welcome to the Future /233 /The 2023 releases round-up
Back from a break (mostly!) over Christmas and New Year, as is traditional I begin the year with a roundup of new music either confirmed or likely to come your way this year. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both […]
/Countdown /2022 /Gigs
Back to writing about the best gigs of the year for the first time in three years. Some statistics for my gig-going in 2022. I went to 36 shows (each festival is counted by number of days – so Infest is three days, so counts for three shows), and saw 106 live sets. I saw […]
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /024 /The Second Indie Disco – 27-Dec 2022
It’s that downtime between Christmas and New Year, we didn’t have a lot else to do, so why not Livestream?
/Welcome to the Future /232 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 23-Dec 2022
I continued with my /Countdown /2022 coverage this past week, with the final part (best gigs) to follow on Tuesday. /Welcome to the Future will now take a break until 06-Jan, where I will begin 2023 with the traditional roundup of expected/known releases for the new year. This post is a roundup of (relevant to […]
/Countdown /2022 /Albums
Onto the third week of /Countdown/2021 on amodelofcontrol.com, and this week I’m looking at the best albums of the year. As I’m sure I’ve explained before, I treat the “year” as 01-December to 30-November, to allow me a cut-off point, and to allow this to be done and dusted before Christmas so that I can […]
/Countdown /2022 /Tracks
Continuing the amodelofcontrol.com review of 2022, which this week turns attention to the best tracks of the year. Next week will be the wrap of the best albums of 2022.

/Countdown /2022 /Compilations and re-issues
Welcome to /Countdown/2022 – this year’s wrap-up of the best new music that I’ve heard across the year. I begin as usual, with the best compilations and reissues in no particular order, although it should be noted that as is the norm these days, there are a whole lot of reissues coming through.
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /023 /29-Nov 2022
Not quite the last one of the year, as it happens.
