❝A river will be impacted as action was taken to protect a reservoir which has fallen to record levels.❞ The journalistic “as” has also reached a record low.

Why on Earth does anybody still use Google Drive to share files? I suppose it’s for the same reasons that so many people still use GMail and other Google services. Well, anyway… If you use it but hadn’t noticed: it’s got worse. Have a think. 😉

‘Tiny Red Dragons #202: Stratospheric Sketches’ by @tinyreddragons.bsky.social Music related to the world of Tangerine Dream, with the sounds of Agitation Free, Klaus Schulze, Conrad Schnitzler, Hoshiko Yamane and more. First heard on BHR last Tuesday. 🎧 www.mixcloud.com/BeachyHeadRa...

Given that there are relatively few music radio shows that welcome music submissions *and* make the process really easy (and free), it’s an enduring mystery why so many musicians will make no effort to co-operate with the most basic of requirements. 😕 Oh well, here’s to the competent majority! 🍻

Earthy sound secrets... adaptivesonic.co.uk/album/earth-... on #preorder @bandcamp.com... releasing tomorrow on all platforms raising funds for www.arhc.org.uk ✨✊🏼✨

Word has arrived that the new album by Trem 77 can now be ordered on Bandcamp. ‘Textural Colour Spectrum Sandpainting’ contains all the music that was heard in Trem 77’s session for Phantom Circuit #453 plus six brand new tracks. “… from sandpaper harmonic distortion to powdery modulated dust…”

“Trending” on Bluesky: “Describe music taste in three artists”. *Three*?! Not even thirty? What a depressing thought! • Describe literary taste in three books. • Describe culinary taste in three foodstuffs. • Describe stultification in three lines.

“This REALLY pissed me off”. Awww. (Is it all music recorded after 1979? No, don’t tell me.)

“What if we never started wearing clothes?” No, we definitely did. 🙄

Ice cream van heard, second one in the last few weeks, this one is playing "O Sole Mio"/"Just one Cornetto" on the chimes. It's branded YumTreats Mr Whippy and there are Disney characters on the back, not even hand drawn, always a bit disappointing. Bring back Mykee Mouse and Ronald The Duck

Who’s there?

New research suggests that some of the fragments of text that can still be seen on Bluesky today may be echoes of an original post—lost to antiquity—that experts have reconstructed as: “___________ invented electronic music’. Wrong answers only.”
