Fantastic. Go for it in that case!

The speed change on a Pro-Ject turntable.

Some of the newer ones have a speed change button but our one has this - you have to manually move the belt up and down the round motor thing to change speed. It’s faffy if it pings off though - there’s a knack to it.

You may need to get a preamp too.

(Yes I do need to do the dusting haha)

Pro-Ject are great, I highly recommend them. A lot of them have manual speed change which isn’t for everyone as it can be faffy but you won’t get a better sounding turntable for the money.

RIP, Jellybean Johnson. He held it down for the greatest band of all-Time. youtu.be/IE0lAfjoT9o?...

Half a century ago exactly, 36 year old Francois de Roubaix died in a diving accident in the Canary Islands. The world was robbed of one of cinema's greatest composers and sonic explorers. The replies to @gotglink.bsky.social feature some of his best scores.

Last time I DJed I played my 7” of this. Adore this version.

I don’t know Dominic Holland was Tom Holland’s dad! Wow.

Perhaps if they spent less time and money on this legal nonsense and more on stopping the horrific abuse, conditions, pollution and health issues of animal farming more of the public would buy their products.

For fucks sake, no part of a cow or pig is called a burger or sausage, it's a shape. Desperate attempts from animal farmers to damage vegetarian food sales.
What's next Cadbury's not being able to sell chocolate fingers because that's what Captain Birdseye sells fish as?

Is it safe to come off Citalopram (20mg) if you’ve been on it for only a week? I’ve not slept at all since Saturday night and have felt like crap all week and I just don’t think it’s worth it. Had enough tbh.

Beth Rigby • @BethRigby • 5h In face of opposition, Mahmood clear in her argument. Said winning this fight more imp to her than a GE "Nothing matters more to me than holding my own country together, not even winning a GE... What's driving the decisions...is fixing this broken system & uniting our country"

Just so: the plan is to lock the cabin doors to keep the passengers out, fly the plane into the ground and then walk out of the wreckage untouched to fancy jobs at Facebook and PWC. And if you don’t like it, fuck you.

My favourite too! (And my hometown)

I’ve got a piece in the North Wales Open at the newly reopened Theatr Clwyd in Mold. It’s my painting of Theatr Ardudwy in Harlech (possibly my favourite building in Wales). It’s on until the end of January.
