/Countdown /2024 /Gigs
The final part of /Countdown 2024 sees me looking at the best gigs of the year. Some statistics for my gig-going in 2024. 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 110 live sets. I saw 105 […]

A very busy couple of weeks to catch up 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, and also a catchup of what I’ve posted recently. Thanks to everyone who sends me new music and […]
/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 […]
/Welcome to the Future /224 /Events, Livestreams and new releases 16-Sep 2022
Quickly into mid-September already, and /amodelofcontrol.com will be away in Chicago next week, covering Cold Waves X (expect the usual report and photos, and potentially some content on FB/Instagram along the way). First up, though, here’s the new releases and suchlike from the past two weeks. This post is a roundup of (relevant to this […]
/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/484/Fifteen Years
This week, what started out as a quick round-up of the best music I was listening to at the time (not necessarily new music initially), thanks to a request from another user on Livejournal, reaches fifteen years of posts.
/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 […]
/Tuesday Ten/451/Last Stop: This Town
In a decision that perhaps would have surprised me a few years ago, never mind my wife, later this week we move out of London, our home for more than the past decade, for a new life by the coast. I’ve spent over a quarter of my life in this one flat in Finsbury Park, […]
/Tuesday Ten/418/Twenty-Five Years Gigging
Twenty-five years ago yesterday (20-July 1995), I made it to my first proper gig. I headed over to Roundhay Park in the north-eastern edges of Leeds, along with tens of thousands of others, to the first night of the Heineken Festival that year, ostensibly to see Pop Will Eat Itself, but that evening I also […]
/Tuesday Ten/414/Senses Working Overtime/Touch
Just over two years ago, I asked for suggestions around songs involving the senses. Needless to say, this ended up being a gargantuan thread, with the easy decision made to split it out.
Welcome to the Future: 056: Events, gigs and new release round-up 21-September 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.
/Tuesday Ten/336/Tracks of the Month/Jun-18
Back to the first Tuesday of the Month now, after a really, really busy month that left me without time anyway last week – that and there were a couple of releases that I needed to wait until this week to feature. And to catch up a bit, there are more than ten this month.
Welcome to the Future: 044: Events, gigs and new release round-up 08-June 2018

Back after a week off for Whitby, 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.
Tuesday Ten: 310: Tracks of the Month (August/September 1997)
A double dose of 1997 this month, after Infest (and of course the writing of Memory of a Festival: 028 that followed it) took up my time at the end of August.
