/Countdown /2024 /Tracks
Continuing the /amodelofcontrol.com review of 2024 – and the twenty-first year that I’ve done this – which this week turns attention to the best tracks of the year. Next week will be the wrap of the best albums of 2024.
/Countdown /2024 /Compilations & Re-issues
Welcome to /Countdown/2024 – this year’s wrap-up of the best new music that I’ve heard across the year, and the 21st anniversary of me starting to do such annual roundups (which began on LiveJournal before moving to this site). I begin as usual, with the best compilations and reissues in no particular order, although it […]
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /035 – 19-Nov 2024
A solo show this time, as continue with my livestream.
/Tuesday Ten /572 /Ooh Stick You!
The final /Tuesday Ten of 2024 is a subject that turned out to have a lot of legs. Insults.
/Welcome to the Future /280 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 15-Nov 2024
It’s been a busy time, but I’ve just about had the time to get another release round-up done, amid continuing to get my /Countdown /2024 lists done (expect those in December). This post is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events and livestreams both from this […]
/Tuesday Ten /571 /Tracks of the Month /Oct 2024
The last /Tracks of the Month of 2024 brings various new songs and a bit of a catch-up from the past couple of months, to ensure I’ve covered as much as possible before /Countdown begins the end of year roundup in December.
/Tuesday Ten /570 /The International Language of Screaming
A scream has a great many potential meanings. It could be an exclamation of triumph, of joy, of ecstasy, of pain, of fear, of shock. It is, however, usually loud and is frequently used or described in music.
/Welcome to the Future /279 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 25-Oct 2024
It’s the week before Hallowe’en – and Whitby – and there’s still a steady stream of new music coming through. I’m well into the work needed to compile and write my best of the year lists – look out for /Countdown /2024 on Tuesdays in December. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this […]
/The Last Song I’ll Ever Sing /003 /Genius
Inspirations for new collections of posts come from disparate places. This one comes from two places: one, a desire to try and record some of the stories of the past in our scene, by way of beloved songs, and two, from The Guardian’s long-running How We Made series.
/DJ /TheKindaMzkYouLike /034 – 15-Oct 2024
After a lengthy break from livestreaming – partly from moving house, partly because we weren’t convinced our internet in our new house was up to the job, and partly because life got in the way… it was great to be back doing this again.
/Tuesday Ten /569 /A Change Would Do You Good
Everything has changed in recent years. Many of us have moved from where we were (particularly those of us in London), our outlook on life might have changed, friends have got married, others having children, others still making other drastic changes to their lives.
/Tuesday Ten /568 /Get Better
It was back in July that I wrote /Tuesday Ten /562, intended as a pair of posts that were the opposite of each other.

Another Bandcamp Friday! 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 new music and events, keeps me up to speed, and […]
/The Last Song I’ll Ever Sing /002 /Another World

/Tuesday Ten /566 /Midlife Crisis
I turned forty-six last month, so I’m likely now in the right place for a midlife crisis.

Back on the normal, first Tuesday of the month schedule for /Tracks of the Month.
/Welcome to the Future /276 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 30-Aug 2024
