Happy #303Day! ๐ŸŽ›๏ธโšก๏ธ

In 1985, Chicago-based musician #DJPierre (Phuture), discovered that by using extreme settings of the #Roland #TB-303, it was possible to create a new kind of futuristic chirping sound. The #TB303 catalysed the new genre #AcidHouse. ๐Ÿ™‚

Absolutely this. Tired of the anti-immigrant rhetoric and pandering to far-right idiots.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adultsโ€”Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebeโ€”living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

That Dirty Business drama on Channel 4 about the water companies dumping sewage is brilliant but makes me so angry. Scandalous. These fucking water companies should be closed down & taken back into public ownership.

Just love Gordon's violent outbursts in this. Hilarious. The filming of the football matches were in Saltaire apparently, my manor!

Cheers Paul! Yeah, apart from their music, their studio Strawberry in Stockport was used by Joy Division, The Smiths etc - such a great legacy.

Also, found out that "the Wrecking Crew of Stockport" recorded the @leedsunited.com anthem "Leeds, Leeds, Leeds" at Strawberry Studios! cc @thesquareball.net

โ€œIt was fantastic to have Paul come in every day, and we hung out with him quite a lot as well. The studio was absolutely crammed with our gear and hisโ€: 10cc's Graham Gouldman on working with Paul Mc... We catch up with Gouldman as he prepares for the upcoming 10cc tour to talk about the craft of songwriting, his studio gear, AI in music, and the legacy of Strawberry Studios

My interview feature with 10cc's Graham Gouldman is now up on the @musicradar.com.web.brid.gy site! Really enjoyable chat with the legendary singer-songwriter about Strawberry Studios, meeting Beatles, writing I'm Not In Love and songwriting.

Itโ€™s rare in life to know when a chapter is closing, but after 38 years at Microsoft, that moment has arrived for me. Iโ€™ve made the decision to retire and begin the next chapter of my life.

Yeah - the new Virtual Boy for Switch 2 is great. Love the ability to save games - the screen is better, and VB Wario Land is still ace. Just need a controller reissue now - and a neck braceโ€ฆ

Only tried Odyssey on it so far - 3D works but feels too โ€œzoomed inโ€. Will try the others asap!

I play all my Switch 2 games mainly on TV, so it looks fantastic in 4K. I chose to play the default mode with nicer visuals at 60fps, but you can also choose a 120fps mode if your TV can take it.

Yeah Metroid Prime 4 is a cracking game - ignore the naysayers.
