Benny Profane - First Peel Session hearthis.at/14683903/ It took us a while before we got our first Peel Session, but as you'll hear on the recording, John really liked it. Taped from the radio on cassette, a rather ragged recording. #bennyprofane #johnpeel #bbcradio #peelsession

I really thought 2026 was the year that @somersetccc.bsky.social were going to win the County Championship for the first time in the club’s century-and-a-half history. Congratulations to Warks but, flipping bloody heck, how many more times are we going to finish in second place!!?

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.

RIP Cheetah Chrome, guitarist with The Dead Boys. I remember flipping out when I heard the awesome ‘Sonic Reducer’ for the first time on Vertigo’s ‘New Wave’ compilation in 1977 and the band’s ‘Young, Loud And Snotty’ album still sounds young, loud and snotty almost 50 years on.

NEW ISSUE OUT NOW! We have SOFT CELL on the cover of the latest Electronic Sound and a bumper Marc Almond interview inside, plus a blue vinyl seven-inch of two tracks from the band’s forthcoming final album to accompany the magazine.

Woodstock booking fees:

Ooofff. And with the one and only Darryl Pandy on vocals. I interviewed Darryl a year or so on from this. Such an incredible voice and such a lovely man.

“Now this is how it started…” The first house record to hit the Top 10 was released 40 years ago this week. Love Can’t Turn Around is the opening song for tonight’s #RaveyardShift which is another #StrictlySevens selection. Watch the classic #TOTP performance here: ▶️ youtu.be/xlO1w_8QiBk

Barely a day goes by without me thinking about Jim McGuinn being urged by a guru to change his name to something more spiritual and him choosing ROGER

1977. Find "The Youth" confusing? Let British tabloid the "Daily Mirror" help😂

1967. No pressure then Pete, Rog, John & Keith😂

I love Éliane Radigue’s music – it informs me, it expresses me – and so I’m very honoured indeed that @electronicsound.bsky.social magazine have published my essay on her music. She was a one-off, the like of which we shall see again. www.electronicsound.co.uk/features/wav...

Love this video. We were always doing this sort of thing at my grammar school – let’s hear it for Hamond’s in Swaffham – back in the 1970s.

#5debutalbums7579 A joy to behold

News of Giovanni Dadomo's band The Snivelling Shits gigs with The Doctors Of Madness in Sounds 22nd, April 1978.

Now playing ‘Focus at the Rainbow’. Released in 1973 this album still astounds me in how four guys can go on stage at what, at the time, was probably their most important concert and play such a blisteringly incredible set.

Always a great read and nice to see a lengthy feature on Hannah Peel in the latest copy of Electronic Sound @electronicsound.bsky.social

The latest @electronicsound.bsky.social has delivered a wonderful treat for the weekend. A focus on @hannahpeel.bsky.social together with her latest collaboration with BEIBEI WANG. Even better there's a seven-inch featuring their work bundled with the mag too. What's not to love 🙏x

It’s the first weekend in UK shops for the new Electronic Sound, with sonic polymath HANNAH PEEL on the cover. You can also buy the mag with an orange vinyl seven-inch featuring two tracks Hannah recorded with percussionist Beibei Wang direct from us at electronicsound.squarespace.com/shop/magazine

Anyway, here’s an amusing bit of music writing I recently read for the first time. Phil Sutcliffe in Sounds (via Rock’s Backpages), 1980, on XTC. Andy Partridge has complained about too many “K” words in reviews of his band (“jerky”, etc.)…

Having my daily asteroid shower Thanks @electronicsound.bsky.social for being real stars and running the best mag out there 🫯

NEW ISSUE OUT NOW! We have the awesome HANNAH PEEL on the cover of the latest Electronic Sound and we’re bundling the mag with an orange vinyl seven-inch featuring two cracking tracks Hannah recorded with virtuoso percussionist BEIBEI WANG.

If you missed me in my new weekly Monday lunchtime slot on Soho Radio, you can catch up here. For the latter part of the show, Matt Ashton from The Leaf Library gamely tackled a barrage of Smash Hits-style questions concerning bus seat location preferences & chance meetings with Ronnie O'Sullivan.
