See, this is good. People dressed normally for a fun night - not like they're waiting for Vice to write an article about them.

Everyone looks so fucking miserable at the club or the pop show nowadays. Music is great. Cheer up and enjoy it ffs.

I always find it interesting that contemporary clubbing photos tend to show people looking like absolute shit, seemingly having the worst time imaginable, while ye olde clubbing photos appear to depict people looking like absolute shit while having the best time ever.

Shaping Prince’s visual world Notoriously protective of his image, Prince chose his collaborators carefully. As Around the World in a Day turns 40, we talk to the creatives behind its artwork

I wrote about Prince's album artwork for Creative Review www.creativereview.co.uk/prince-visua...

I had to look this up because it's so utterly insane that it just had to be true and I'm still aghast to discover that it is.

Also, people posting stuff like "they should remove all their albums hahaha" are exhausting.

The 1975 remove track from album on streaming because Matty Healy doesn't like it anymore The 1975 have removed a track from their latest album 'Being Funny In A Foreign Language' from streaming platforms – here's why.

This is almost definitely a setup for something else, but you don't just remove tracks from an album that's been out for ages on whim. www.nme.com/news/music/t...

Buying Blu-rays on Vinted has opened my eyes to an insane world. People buy 4K sets, keep the 4K disc and then sell the rest piecemeal. They'll sell the case and Blu-ray and then the slipcase on its own in another listing. I fucking hate these people. They're my new nemeses. I hate them so much.

Do people engage with anything you post over there? Difficult to drum up engagement anywhere these days though, I find.

Keep getting suckered back onto Threads by previews of some asinine post about nothing. That's it binned for the last time.

Extremely funny to me that Vinted has basically turned into that dodgy market in the "YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A CAR" ad with people shilling really, really badly made pirate DVDs and Blu-rays.

Hello music PR pals. I've been doing more and more artist bios this year and it's something I've been enjoying a lot. Always eager to do more.

This right here. This is marketing.

Made my MCM/EGX stage debut this weekend! Had a great time hosting composer Richard Jacques for a chat about his work for the likes of Mass Effect, 007: Blood Stone and Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. We even got a world exclusive reveal of his next project. More of this sort of thing, please.

'Halo: Campaign Evolved' is absolutely, undoubtedly one of the worst names for any game ever, ever and I love it so much.

I find it wild that some people go mad for steelbook cases. They look like absolute shit.

New Tame Impala album isn't as bad as everyone is saying. Isn't great either. It's just fine. People expecting KP to do the same thing over and over again are absolutely exhausting though.
