/Tuesday Ten /500 /Tellin’ Stories
In a happy coincidence, my /Tuesday Ten series reaches post number 500 on my birthday: and having checked back, I’ve never posted a /Tuesday Ten on my birthday.
/Memory of a Festival /035 /Goth City 6 /Leeds /07-10 Jul 2022
It’s been a long time since I was last at any kind of festival in person. The last one I went to was the all-dayer 10 Ten Years of Chaos in February 2020 (/Memory of a Festival/034), and the last multi-day festival was Infest 2019 (/Memory of a Festival/033) – so with COVID still looming, […]
/Tuesday Ten /499 /Tracks of the Month /Jul-22
Already into August, and planning now begins for a number of festivals coming up. In the meantime, here are the best tracks of the past month.
/Welcome to the Future /220 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 29-Jul 2022
The end of July (already!), and here’s this week’s new release roundup. Anyway. 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. Thanks to everyone who sends me […]
/Tuesday Ten /498 /Pump Up The Volume
As I edge ever-closer to the 500th /Tuesday Ten, this week, I’m celebrating volume.
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /020 – 19-Jul 2022
Back to provide something to do on a sweltering evening – the hottest day ever recorded in many parts of the UK – and also to mark two years, thereabouts, since /TheKindaMzkYouLike began…
/Tuesday Ten /497 /It’s Oh So Quiet
It’s baking outside, I’m coming out of the back of my first bout of COVID, and really, all I want to do is hide indoors, with a fan on and a continual supply of water. I’ve already covered extreme heat a few years ago, on /Tuesday Ten /337 /Hot Hot Hot!!!, by the way, so […]
/Welcome to the Future /219 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 15-Jul 2022
Back from my first festival in a long time (Goth City in Leeds), and more to come about that in the coming days. In the meantime… Anyway. 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 […]
/Tuesday Ten /496 /You Are Free (To Do As We Tell You)
The last few years feel like the civilised world has been on something of a precipice, buffeted from all sides by extremist, reactionary opinions and decisions that take us backwards.
/Welcome to the Future /218 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 01-Jul 2022
Into the second half of 2022, and the new releases continue to flood in. Anyway. 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. Thanks to everyone who […]
/Tuesday Ten /495 /Tracks of the Month /Jun-22
A week that has brought yet more appalling news from the US and elsewhere, and it’s all feeling a bit grim really, isn’t it?
/Welcome to the Future /217 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 24-Jun 2022
Another busy week of work, and seeing the incomparable Einstürzende Neubauten last night, and here’s this week’s new music to hopefully distract you a bit.
/Tuesday Ten /494 /Now There’s Nothing
I can’t recall where this one first came up, but it might have been thanks to hearing a song that triggered the thought. Anyway, this week is about nothing.
/Welcome to the Future /216 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 17-Jun 2022
A sweltering week, and here’s this week’s new music to hopefully distract you a bit.
/Welcome to the Future/215/Events, Livestreams and new releases 10-Jun 2022
Much like two weeks ago, this post comes with discussion of death. This time, though, it was closer to home, as a drinking-and-gig buddy from London sadly passed away this week. DL, we’re gonna miss you, dude. Anyway. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to […]
/Tuesday Ten/493/I’m So Excited
My feelings on the Monarchy and “celebrations” like this weekend just past are well known, so I decided to avoid any posts on the subject this time around. Instead, I got thinking the other week about songs about excitement, and things that might thrill me instead.
/DJ/Stormblast/156 – 02-Jun 2022
It’s been nearly a year since the last /Stormblast, and as I’ve been tentatively returning to the odd livestream of late, I thought it time to dust off this one and do another.
/Tuesday Ten/492/Tracks of the Month/May-22
As we hurtle through 2022 and crash into summer, here’s the latest set of new music to get you going.
/Welcome to the Future/214/Events, Livestreams and new releases 27-May 2022
A bit of a grim end to the week, really, with the sudden death of Andy Fletcher of Depeche Mode announced yesterday (among a number of other notable deaths within about 24 hours). I wasn’t ever the devoted fan that many of my friends still are, but DM has been part of my musical life […]
/Tuesday Ten/491/When Will I Be Famous?
After what is these days a rare week off from /Tuesday Ten posts, I’m back this week with one looking at the pressures of fame.
