Self Saboteur

Buchla Concerts 1975, by Suzanne Ciani 2 track album

While it's true that I often say "this is a top 10 album of all time of any genre and any era," and indeed I suspect I've said it more than 10 times (maybe more than 100 times!), this one really is

It’s good to remember that even when you’re not actually making music, eg not playing an instrument, you can still be making music. Like, thinking about music is making music. And thinking about other stuff is probably also making music. And not thinking about anything definitely making music.

My favorite use of the Amen break since the jungle era. Ana Roxanne & DJ Python went crazy on this album.

What’s your favorite recent jungle influenced song?

was just reading this review of Low-Life and the writer described this version as “one of the sky-scraping high points of 80s pop culture” which nails it. The whole piece on the album is great, helped me view it through a slightly different perspective than I had been

so the podcast that Platner went on as a guest last month and called himself a “longtime fan” of isn’t just antisemitic, it’s also full of anti-Black racism and promoted the racist and xenophobic GOP attacks on Somali immigrants in Minneapolis?

How Kansas Republicans weaponized the law to target 300 trans driver's license holders SB 244 was put into effect virtually overnight, causing chaos, panic and fear in the trans community.

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

Will check it for sure. Thx

So good
