/Countdown /2025 /Compilations & Re-issues
Welcome to /Countdown/2025 – this year’s wrap-up of the best new music that I’ve heard across the year, and the 22nd year 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 […]
/Welcome to the Future /297 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 17-Oct 2025
A few more weeks closer to the end of the year, and we’re now starting to see new releases for 2026 announced already… 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 […]
/Tuesday Ten /598 /Tracks of the Month /Jul-25
This month, I’m covering the best tracks of the month a week earlier than usual – mainly because I already had plans for /Tuesday Ten /599 and /600 that fit neatly in the next couple of weeks. That said, I already had enough tracks by this time last week, never mind this week, so there […]
/Welcome to the Future /292 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 24-Jul 2025
A break in what has been a hot summer this week, with lots of rain and a general sense, for a short while, of nothing much going on. 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, […]
/Countdown /2024 /Albums
Onto the third week of /Countdown/2024 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 […]
/Welcome to the Future /275 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 26-Jul 2024
This week’s wrap of new and upcoming music… 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 […]

/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 […]
/Welcome to the Future/205/Events, Livestreams and new releases 04-Mar 2022
Being away for family reasons last week, and starting a new job has meant I had to miss a week, so this is two weeks of releases and announcements, as I try to keep up… The post, then, is a roundup of (relevant to this site) new and upcoming music, a nod to upcoming events […]
/Talk Show Host/075/Collide
The first interview of 2022 on /amodelofcontrol.com is with a band I’ve long wanted to talk to – and indeed I’ve been listening to them for a long time. LA-based darkwave/goth/industrial (more on genre fluidity and definitions later) band Collide has been part of my musical life for over two decades, a group that never […]
/Tuesday Ten/476/Tracks of the Month/Jan-22
These past few weeks have been a bit of a nightmare away from writing about music (my father has been, and still is, very ill in hospital), and perhaps, giving myself a bit of a distraction in writing about music again is what I need.
/Welcome to the Future/198/Events, Livestreams and 2022 New Releases round-up
Into 2022 and the cold, grey January, and on the first Friday of 2022, it is time for my traditional round-up of what we know about (relevant) new music coming your way in 2022. What do I mean by relevant? Broadly, that means music I might cover here, which to be honest, these days, covers […]
/Welcome to the Future/197/Livestreams and new releases 10-Dec 2021
Edging closer to Christmas, and now releases have begun slowing down (most activity is around upcoming releases). /Countdown/2021 continued last Tuesday with Countdown/2021/Tracks, and I’ve finally begun clearing the interview mountain. In the meantime, here’s the usual wrap of new music and suchlike this week.
/Countdown/2020 /Compilations and re-issues
Welcome to the amodelofcontrol.com review of 2020, which begins this week. Over this and the next two Tuesdays, I’ll be rounding up the best music of the year in various categories. In coming weeks there will be the wrap of the best tracks and the best albums.
/Tuesday Ten/424/Tracks of the Month/Aug-20
Into September, and back to normal – whatever normal is these days – in the days post-Stay-In-Fest. That online festival was surprisingly great fun, and I stuck around for the whole thing. I DJed early on (my setlist: /DJ/Guest/098), and had a number of interviews with bands broadcast, all of which will be uploaded and […]
/Welcome to the Future/138/Livestreams and new release round-up/14-Aug 2020
We keep going amid the lockdown. There are new releases, and still, new music coming through, and buying music right now is the only way we can help. The events listing is still being updated, but obviously, an awful lot is being postponed, cancelled or changed right now.

/Countdown/2018 /Compilations and Re-issues
Welcome to the amodelofcontrol.com review of 2018, which begins this week. Over this and the next three Tuesdays, I’ll be rounding up the best music of the year in various categories. In coming weeks there will be the best tracks, the best albums, and the best gigs.
Welcome to the Future: 033: Events, gigs and new release round-up 16-March 2018
Another Friday, another round-up. As always this is a look at upcoming releases, relevant music news and upcoming events and gigs worth spending some of your time at. It is by no means an exhaustive list, and I’m always on the lookout for more to include.
