With one week until #Halloween, get in a synth-tastic spooky mood now with my four-hour playlist of ghoulish goodness. Not a Monster Mash, Ghostbusters, or Thriller in sight.

In a queue for #Kraftwerk. The robots are coming to Liverpool again. Boing Boom Tschak!

Another splendid evening @liverpoolphil.bsky.social for @divinecomedyhq.bsky.social live with a moodier than usual, interestingly eclectic playlist.

Uh-oh! There's another global #rapture again today, apparently. Just managed to escape the last few.

Recently got a rescue puppy that has thwarted plans for a London visit to give Felon #Trump the finger. I'd even prepared the protest signs.

Sad news about the death of Giorgio Armani.

Sad to hear about the passing of Terrence Stamp. May he finally be freed from The Phantom Zone.

Yep! My vinyl is in pristine condition inside this protective bag.

A nice new Vince Clarke remix for The Hidden Cameras has popped up on Spotify so I’ve added it to this sweetly synthetic playlist of aural bleepiness.

They’ve defied the courts, deported Americans, disappeared people off the streets, attacked civil rights, and slashed services. The corruption has gone too far. No thrones. No crowns. No kings. May it rain on his pathetic parade.

"If your convictions are worth anything, you should be ready to stand up for them" lyrics from a new mix by #PetShopBoys of 'Hymn', dedicated to the memory and cause of Alexei Navalny.
Now track 75 in an ongoing Spotify playlist of singles dating back to 1984.

I'm sad that there will be nothing new by the marvellous #SaintEtienne @bobpetesarah.bsky.social - they've never released a bad album. Can't believe 'Home Counties' is 8 years old already. It's today's 'art on your sleeve' over on Facebook. Interesting story behind the design...

"Our one source of energy, the ultimate discovery..." Where it all began for #OMD 'Electricity', the debut single on Factory Records. I've written about the design of its sleeve for today's 'Art on your sleeve' entry in the Facebook group.

"It's not often the band come to me with suggestions but Martin volunteered that he'd love to see a front cover look less dark. I tried coming up with ideas but then during the shoot, we came across these Agave plants, and that's how that colourful cover came about." Anton Corbijn for #DepecheMode

OK, I'm ready. What the hell's about to happen? #Eurovision 2025 is so close I can see the strobe lights and smell the milkshake, espresso macchiato and poison cake. #unitedbymusic

Happy 40th Birthday to Low-life by #NewOrder I remember running into town from art college on release day to buy this beautifully packaged album. Find out more about the cover in the 'Art on your sleeve' Facebook group.

'Sugar Tax' by #OMD was released on this day in 1991. It was lovely to interview both Andy McCluskey and its sleeve designer Richard Smith for my podcast.

Awww... some of the acting is ropey but it's still a great watch. I still have my Jamie Reid mini publicity poster. Thankfully, Liverpool isn't anywhere near as bleak as it was back then when I was an art student. Glad I stayed around for the creative renaissance.

May the fourth be with you. Wave your hands in the air like you just don’t care, it’s Sunday morning rave time.
