Philosophers Barn Mastering UK

As peaceful protestors are arrested for holding placards, starving Palestinians are being shot in the street.

This will go down as one of the most shameful moments in British legal history.

No amount of suppression can hide the truth: our government is complicit in genocide.

That’s just fabulous!

I bet @elizabethalker.bsky.social would have played it ...
Mastered @phibarnmastering.bsky.social of course.

BBC R3 feature this morning: match coastal paths with music. Easy: North Norfolk Coastal Path with this track. They read out my suggestion, but declined to follow it up as the track was 'not suitable for the playlist'. I can't imagine why not.

Opening another very creative and enjoyable non-Newtonian phase-space of possibilities. Of course.

This ‘hard-man Starmer’ pose just makes him look even more morally disgusting, and even more of an utter dick-head.

They usually are: his standard line (or maybe contractual arrangement) is to say something nice abut some utter ghoul every week.

“From carpet tiles to call center lines to Bulgarian bean barters—an uncanny symphony of sounds, woven seamlessly into one surreal tapestry”

Another lovely review of our new album - thanks @igloomag.bsky.social

He may talk rubbish but Trump has an eye for beauty, and that is a breath of fresh air | Simon Jenkins The US president promotes classical architecture and loathes ‘ugly’ wind turbines. Keir Starmer would dismiss him as a nimby, but on this Trump has a point, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins

Not according to this regular fool:

By failing to sanction Israel, EU leaders are complicit in its crimes. They must act now | Josep Borrell Europe’s silence has allowed the genocide of Palestinians to continue unchecked – undermining all it stands for, says Josep Borrell, a former EU high representative

Government under-reach: "The leaders of the EU and its member states will probably be called to account in the future for their complicity in the crimes against humanity committed by Netanyahu’s government."

Wevie Stonder – Sure Beats Living - New album
Now available all formats.
Delightful to have them back, enjoy.

#weviestonder #skamrecords

Disability benefits cut; the Gaza Genocide facilitated; and Labour's main public pronouncement today is announcing retrospective help for loan sharks.

Sickening. A vote of (No) confidence would be nice at this point. The whole front bench (and backroom boy McS) needs to be swept away.

100% this …

Long may he continue to rot.

A thing of beauty is a joy forever.

The Guardian view on Labour’s control freakery: the party once tolerated dissent. Now it treats it as treason Editorial: The problem isn’t disunity – it’s policy. Sir Keir Starmer dodges popular economic solutions and confuses control for leadership

It's desperation - for absolute control, to appease those that are absolutely controlling him. All of the front bench are pathetic.

Just starting work this morning in my North Norfolk office @phibarnmastering.bsky.social

Surreal is the right word.

Two completely indistinguishable positions on small boats from a Tory & a Labour MP on Newsnight yesterday.

Neither one of them capable of making a case that stands up to the slightest logical pushback. Pathetic.

Zoe is truly a moral force of nature.

Big thanks to the legend that is Eric James @phibarnmastering.bsky.social for a fantastic job on mastering our album - sorry for almost reducing you to tears Eric, we’ll make it up to you 🥃
