Bought this on tape and I don’t think it left my Walkman for the whole of my 20th year.

Soft Collapse Of Meaning, by Brendon Moeller 9 track album

Second excellent (and very different) new Brendon Moeller drop of the month.

Listened to the Flipper album today for the first time (I think) since I was a teenager. It’s every bit as good now as it was then.

UK ban on Palestine Action unlawful, high court judges rule Protest group’s co-founder wins legal challenge against decision to proscribe it under anti-terrorism laws

Finally some sense. Maybe the government needs to hold a seminar to remind themselves what it means to be a free, tolerant, society.

This is so good.

More seriously good stuff from Wah Wah Wino.

8004, by 8004 6 track album

Magnesium citrate with a bit of honey and lemon (and hot water) is a great bedtime drink which will have you sleeping like a proverbial baby.

I once left Dostoyevsky’s The Idiot on a train and have never replaced and thus finished it. I had to return Omensetter’s Luck to the library because I was leaving the country. Never got a copy, so never finished it. This is the year of mopping up dropped classics.

There’s something very BC/R&S about Hard Wax descriptions. Utterly minimal but utterly precise.

First discovery of February. Engulfing, mesmerising drones and voices. Beautiful.

If your friend is a bloke, I’d highly recommend getting a shave. There is an awesome place on Pertevpasa Sok in Sultanahmet.

Join us on Thursday to discuss Lacan and Laruelle with Jeremy Smith.

Totally agree. That series introduced me to so much.

Catching up on a few things and, wow, Wino-E is every bit as good as those folks over @boomkat.com said it was.

Eventually watched Christopher Andrews’ Bring Them Down and my big take away is that Paul Ready, who plays Kevin in Motherland, is a phenomenally good actor. I’m struggling to reconcile those two roles to the same body.

I do wonder who a Freud-is-a-bad-man play is aimed at.

Jackals - Summerhall Arts Based on astounding true events, Jackals is a contemporary retelling of the bewildering professional relationship between a young, ambitious woman and her fledgling doctor with a point to prove.

“On a sunny afternoon in Vienna, Emma Eckstein went to see a doctor. You won’t have heard of her.” Erm, unless you’re familiar with psychoanalysis, in which case you probably have.

Introduce yourself with five concerts you’ve seen:

Autechre
Bill Orcutt
Portishead
Peter Brötzmann
The Necks

Curious parking in Edinburgh

Do you run any classes for teenagers?

"Centenarian who 'believes in cream cakes' to celebrate 103rd birthday"

Why does this read like cream cakes don't actually exist?

Hugely excited to welcome Jeremy Smith to @LacanInScotland next Thursday to talk about Laruelle and Lacan. The event is free and open to all. Please join us.

So Research Gate allows me to request someone’s article but, when they send it to me, it won’t let me say thanks because they don’t follow me.

Ah, found this:

Does anyone know of a comprehensive, chronological King Tubby discography?
