This ticks several of my boxes 😆

Here are my gigs for the next couple of months, starting this weekend with Manchester and Todmorden! Links below for tickets to those two, where I'll be playing two totally different sets like a massive nerd.

Looking forward to this tonight, always good to hear what the Scan Man has cooked up.

Tape cover, box and tape of Flowers At The Border, an album of remixes.

Tapes are bloody here, aren’t they (will probably send them out slightly before the release date).

Pre-order here: objectsforever.bandcamp.com/album/flower...

Features wonderful remixes from @mueka.bsky.social @polypores.bsky.social @citizenhelene.bsky.social @matthewjashton.bsky.social and more!

And then on 25th I'm at QUOB Festival, at Fell Foot Wood in the Lake District, which promises “UNQMMON HAPPENINGS FOR QRIOUS PEOPLE”, which to me sounds absolutely ideal.

Then it's over to Todmorden the next day 11/10/25 where I'll be performing a longform piece I've written specifically for the wonderfully esoteric Harmonicon Festival: www.tickettailor.com/events/reson...

Three gigs this month! First up I’m supporting Manc legends @scissorgun.bsky.social for their new album launch at Gullivers, Manchester - 10/10/25. I’ll be playing tracks from Cosmically A Shambles, plus maybe some new material: www.universe.com/events/sciss...

Loads of other good reviews in there - have a read and a listen along. Thanks MB

I did a remix of the beautiful Flowers At The Border. Was really fun turning TLL’s music into my own version of psych-rock. There’s some fantastic interpretations on here, really happy to be invited to contribute 🤟

I know right? I can't beleive they invited me!

"Harmonicon is based in Todmorden, West Yorkshire, 30 mins from Manchester by train but in a different world. The town is a beacon for the unusual, situated in the centre of the UFO valley, it is steeped in folklore, myth and magic."

"Stone Club and resonance are joining forces to curate a three day festival of esoteric disciplines, connected by a shared imagination. Encompassing: stones, drones, folklore, walks and talks; the gathering brings a diverse connected web of practitioners from across these fields."

I've been asked to perform at Harmonicon festival in Todmorden on 11th October. I'll be creating a piece to perform specifically for this event, and I'll be playing it on the Saturday evening in the Unitarian Chapel. Tickets here:

Happening Again #44 The weird, the wyrd, and the wired

Happy Monday. If you missed it at the end of last week, the latest edition of Happening Again is out now. With bits on @jetski0.bsky.social, @polypores.bsky.social, Dust Witch, 9Million, as well as cool stuff from around the world and internet.

Lovely review of Tree Vee here: "a trippy, bouncy slice of psychedelic electronica - like surfing through a kaleidoscope. Delicate plucking bleeps and rippling synthlines coalesce into skittering textures and a vortex of aural technicolour."

Thanks Fin, glad you like it!

Ongs Hat Compleat - Official Soundtrack, by Polypores 18 track album

Lovely soundtrack work from Polypores

My contribution to this collection is “Feelers”, which explores repeated cyclical melodies and unsynced rhythms, and collapses in a glorious maelstrom of chaotic energy. Obviously.

Delighted to be included in this amazing compilation amongst so many people I admire. Get yourself a copy now!

1 copy left !!!!! cmon

I'm based in Preston - but I think I've got it sorted now ta!

Charlie is sorting me out - cheers for the heads up!

Sweet thank you!

It honestly sounds great. Thanks for the play too! :)

Nice one cheers!

You've actually got a great radio voice/demeanor - you're a natural!

Ah shit ok haha

D-Man recommended Lewis, who looked at my Microkorg about 15 years ago - do you think he's worth a try?
