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...

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.

The imaginative mind.
External sensory input. Processed subjectively by one's particular mood, emotion and humor.
creates internal narratives that can transport the individual to places both dreamt of and unexpected....
I forgot book photos again. I often save interesting features from my book pics. I've created this filler image from patterns found on 2 old paperbacks. Consider it a peek at the ever shifting landscape inside a bookseller's brain. Enjoy, if it doesn't cause eyestrain.
Discomfort and unease wrack your body. Weird images flicker on the edge of your vision. Your mind races, beset by alien ideations and uncomfortable imaginations. Don't fret though-- there's nothing to do but relax into it as "Something Strange Struggles to Be Born"
In 1966 The Yardbirds released a self titled album in the UK, in the US and Europe it was called Over Under Sideways Down. Eventually the album became known by the title of the cartoon, Roger The Engineer after the drawing on the cover
Nearly 40 years ago Jeff Minter coded up the first version of #Psychedelia in 1K of 6502 assembler. "I was so moved by what I'd found that at first I refused to make it commercial... I felt that something so basic and lovely deserved more than just being another thing to be sold and profited from. I actually gave that first algorithm away in listing form to a computer magazine." http://www.minotaurproject.co.uk/psychedelia.php
