We have a dark electronica double whammy this week, with the arrival of Pye Corner Audio's 'The Endless Echo' from Ghost Box, and The Night Monitor's 'Horror of the Hexham Heads' from Library of the Occult.
Nightmares on wax...👀
No gods, no masters and absolutely no fucking algorithms. Just pure, undiluted essence of weirdo, rendered in musical form. Start with Psychedelic Ghost Stories, then dip into Metaphysical Shitposting once you've got the taste for it.
Have a listen to "The Stars Are Ours," one of the most chill and atmospheric tracks I've ever released (I think you'll like it even if you find my usual work a bit much). I always thought it would make a good theme for a PBS doc about space exploration, or maybe an indie sci-fi drama. Let me know what you think?
If ever you want to show off your 'eclectic' music tastes without pissing off your co-workers, this is a good set to throw on. Nothing but fun and smiles throughout! #country#psychedelia#jazz#calypso#classicrock#reggae,
The month is nearly over. #BandcampFriday is on the horizon. I need two streams to set a new streaming record for non-new release months. So, hey! Check out a track or two!
We've almost reached the current day, so let's have some free codes for Psychedelic Ghost Stories! This is my latest "proper" album, meaning all the songs are both composed and produced; no sketches, improvs or "experiments" here! Musically, I am gonna say the title tells you what to expect -- it's dark and a little creepy, as well as being deeply and truly psychedelic (I hope!).
The gift giving continues! Today I'm giving away 25 free download codes for Tales of Etherspace, my 2022 album. This one is nice and diverse, featuring some of my most musical and accessible pieces next to some Real Weird Shit. And hey, with these codes (in the following threaded post), it's now #free if you want it!
Oh, look! A new track added to Metaphysical Shitposting! It's "Cosmic Horror at the Strip Mall Parking Lot." It's the sonic version of that timeless, universal experience -- you head to the convenience store with a head full of acid and there, among the Slim Jim wrappers and cigarette butts and gasoline fumes, the full horror of our existence hits you all at once! The Great Old Ones have your FULL attention and it's Not Great!
If you're a new/recent follower, hello! Welcome to my feed. I hope you like #independent#music (especially #ElectronicMusic!) recommendations, discussions about the #life of a #musician, music-related #shitposts and the occasional smattering of leftist (pro labor, pro justice, pro human rights, anti racist, anti police, anti fascist) politics.
I'm a good follow if you're looking for #NewMusic or if you're a musician making new music. If you're both, well...
'A psychedelic image of the spider web-like network of tiny vessels in the back of a rat's eye has won this year's Nikon's Small World photography competition. Hassanain Qambari, a diabetes researcher at the Lions Eye Institute in Australia, was awarded first prize for the detailed image of a rodent's optic nerve head.'
If you're really feeling generous, I'm at the precipice of 400 #Bandcamp followers, too... I promise not to spam you lol! I send out fewer than one email a month there on average, generally announcing a new release or a sale I'm having.
And, uh, for the TRULY giving, I'm also about $50 below my sales goal...
