I am amazed that I somehow never realized that the Midnight Special, a TV music show that ran from the early '70s thru the late '80s, existed until like... six months ago? Less than that? (Honestly, nothing's ever made me more inclined to believe in the Mandela effect than this 😅 , considering I was a professional music journalist for most of a decade and a lifelong music fanatic).

Anyway, I've been catching up on it via YouTube, where they're slowly archiving all of the episodes.

Humble Bundle seems to have a bundle with some Cherry Audio virtual synths at the moment, including Quadra which you'll hear on a few Key 13 tracks, notably Primavera and Lateral Flow.

Also includes Mercury-4 which is a Roland Jupiter-4 emulation, and Dreamsynth.

The deal includes a whole bunch of sample packs too.

Not affiliated in any way but I use a lot of Cherry Audio stuff and this is a cheap price...!

While Letterboxd seems to be the popular option for logging and reviewing movies, there doesn't seem to be a consensus option for video games. In the past I've used Backloggery, Grouvee, and Playfire (RIP), but dropped those years ago.

So, what does everyone on the fediverse use for logging/reviewing video games?

Oh look, I've drawn another witch.

I keep meaning to do more drawings from explicitly high or low perspectives in order to practice perspective and proportions—and so that I can learn to draw more dynamic scenes for future illustration work. So here's an elf witch riding a broomstick, seen from below.

One more #slomo! Big Guns' multiball start is so damn satisfying to watch! #pinball #mechanicalgames #80spinball

Playfield closeup of Big Guns pinball machine. Two catapults shoot balls across the upper playfield onto a wire ramp in slow motion. The action is seen from player's perspective and in reverse point of view.

Pixel art of a forgotten gold rush dream, where ancient tunnels murmur with stories untold. Lanterns flicker in a dim, ethereal glow, casting shadows that waltz with swirling dust, while the ghosts of miners linger in the air. Worn tools, forsaken and forlorn, litter the ground - relics of calloused hands and bygone hopes. Drill bits and pickaxe handles lean like weary sentinels against the weathered wooden walls, whispering secrets of sweat and toil. A narrow passageway beckons, an enigmatic path leading to a hidden exit cloaked in overgrown vegetation. Nature weaves its reclaiming touch, hinting at histories long buried beneath the soil. Golden rays of sunlight pierce through the cracks in the time-worn boards, illuminating the aged, earthy scent that hangs heavy in the air. Muted tones and weathered textures create a canvas of rich, immersive nostalgia, where the very environment hums with echoes of forgotten ambition and whispered dreams.

Song of the Day - No 512

PETER GABRIEL - SLEDGEHAMMER

Released in 1986 as the lead single from his fifth studio album, So, "Sledgehammer" is a vibrant celebration of love and desire. Its iconic music video, featuring stop-motion animation, won a record nine MTV Video Music Awards. The song's infectious energy and catchy horn riff helped it reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

Pixel art of a secluded forge, nestled behind ancient stone walls, where hidden medieval secrets breathe in the warmth of flickering flames. Smoke curls and swirls upward in graceful tendrils, weaving a tapestry through the dimly lit workshop, casting enigmatic shadows on scattered anvils and meticulously arranged tools. Blazing fires illuminate the scene, their golden tongues of light dancing upon rough-hewn wooden beams, painting the rustic space with hues of molten brilliance. The air is thick with the scent of hot iron, sweat, and woodsmoke, a symphony of labour and craft. Each breath carries the whispers of untold stories, forged in the crucible of time. Here, in this quiet sanctuary, the blacksmith's soul finds its voice, resonating through the clang of hammers and the hiss of cooling metal. The warmth radiates not just from the forge, but from the heart of an age-old tradition, glowing bright in the embrace of shadows.

I'm excited to finally reveal the piece I created for "Character in Context" at the A.R. Mitchell Museum in Trinidad, CO, which runs June 7-July 27, with an opening reception on Friday, June 7 from 5-8pm.

"An Inhabitant of Carcosa" is an original illustration based on the Ambrose Bierce short story of the same name, about a wandering spirit displaced in time. The 1886 story heavily influenced other classic writers such as W. Chambers and H.P. Lovecraft, who adopted the city of Carcosa into their own mythos.

The original watercolor of the main illustration, as well as several smaller preliminary studies, and a limited edition print of this piece are all available:

i've always found pop covers of metal songs fascinating as they clearly draw out the original creator's intended melody and reveal the pop underpinnings of metal (standard verse-chorus song structures, for example), and The Cardigan's cover of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath comes close to being one of my favorite renovations.

anything else come to mind? #music

Pixel art of a mystical forest scene, where the trees stand tall and ancient on either side of a small pond, their gnarled branches reaching out like twisted fingers. The grass around the pond is long and wild, swaying gently in the breeze that rustles through the leaves of the towering trees. The sky above is clear and bright, casting a warm glow over the entire scene. The water in the pond is calm and still, reflecting the verdant greenery around it like a mirror. The forest itself is lush and thriving, filled with all manner of flora and fauna that call this place home. The beauty and tranquillity of nature in its purest form - untouched by human intervention and brimming with life. It's as if time has stood still here, allowing one to lose themselves in the serene landscape and feel at peace with the world around them.

GARY NUMAN
The Pleasure Principle
1979 Canada pressing

Once I finished listening to the John Foxx record, I had to put this on.
Gary & John are two artists that are forever entwined for me.

The Pleasure Principle is one of the greatest albums of all time, regardless of genre or era, and NO I did not stutter.

Without Gary (and John as well), it’s hard to imagine a world that has Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, or Depeche Mode.
Just a legendary artist.
