Who doesn't love a couple of hours immersed in the desolate emptiness of Dungeness in the winter.
Great big speaker stack of the disused foghorn testing station made my day (again). #dungeness #foghorn #desolate #beach #electronicmusic

Enjoyed #DavidLynch : The Art Life screening at the BFI — a damn fine cup of coffee for a weary artist like me — followed by the powerful Lost Highway.

Also visited The Red Room — in 1990 disaffected pre-Internet teenagers tuned in to #TwinPeaks weekly in their millions, and I was one of them.

Sometimes I feel the need to move on

A flyer for Lightscapes: a projection mapping showcase event at Folkestone Town Hall on Friday 28 March 2025

The team at @screensouth.bsky.social gave me the opportunity to experiment with projection mapping and my first short work will be shown tomorrow, Friday 28 7–8pm at Folkestone town hall.

It’s titled, “A brief history of radio, radar and acoustic technology in the local area” and features new music

“Short back and sides with a hard line please, a bit like this” (shows picture on phone of 1930s German paramilitary)

Don’t overdo it too soon chief, give yourself proper time to rest and heal, all the best

For those who celebrate.

I loved David Lynch, he had a powerful creative light and even though his stories were disturbing, his visual aesthetic and sound design resonated strongly with me. And he was funny! I was v happy to visit his favourite LA diner, and I also learned transcendental meditation on his recommendation. 🫡

I fear there is deep truth here.

I feel similar except I haven’t been able to keep releasing like you have, so you’re doing well! Hopefully I’ll be able to get something into the world this year after getting the wind knocked out of me.

Happy new year. Not to be flippant about the fact that 2024 was a horrific shitshow for a lot of humanity, but in my small corner it was a bit of a rough one, so I’m hoping 2025 is less shite for everyone. Following a set of disappointments I’m determined to get more music into the world in 2025. 🍀

Hey, remember to clean and demagnetize your cassette deck heads tonight. You don't want everyone to be disappointed by the poor state of your tape deck transport on Christmas morning!

Generative AI is theft. And this tech needs to be curbed now. The UK government has proposed a change to the copyright law which would benefit AI companies, meaning AI companies would be able to train on British copyrighted work without a licence.

I swear Google still doesn't get my accent. Me: "Hey Google, play 6 Music." Google: "Okay, here's some sex music from Spotify". 😑

Child Poverty % (children living in households below the minimum wage)

Denmark 2.4%
Finland 3.2%
Norway 3.6%
Sweden 3.6%

The UK 32.1%

All four of those countries have child benefits, paid by taxing the rich, that make it almost impossible for a child to be in poverty.

Needed to get off at Ashford International after a night out and walked through the Eurostar ghost station to the weird car park. Love this kind of stuff.

Hi!

P. G. Warren "Proper deep industrial synth electronica... a truly sci-fi world… somewhere between Cabaret Voltaire, Boards of Canada and Pye Corner Audio” — Hot Salvation Latest LP on Castles in Space: https://pg...

Hi! I make atmospheric electronic music with corroded, cavernous synths and drumbeats. Thank you! pgwarren.bandcamp.com

Awesome

Why is vintage audio equipment booming? Music lovers are buying up old cassette, CD and record players and getting them fixed.

I knew cassettes are super popular with young people in Japan rn but as someone who has released on cassette it’s heartwarming to see this trend also happening closer to home www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

How We Lived, by P. G. Warren 6 track album

I am an electronic musician/producer and delight in pushing my synth sounds beyond what the synth was designed to do, into the realm of atmospheric non-musical corrosive sound design, so I’d love to be considered for this list, thank you. e.g. pgwarren-cis.bandcamp.com/track/we-dri...

They don't want you to live, they want you to work and then they want you to die.

Every day they drill this message into you and bleat on about their profits.

Every day you need to reject it.

Feeling this

Starting the fortieth Starter Pack with all the bands, orchestras, independent labels, and musicians I can find on Blue Sky!

Please have a look, follow some or all of them, and share this pack here and in other places!

This is a work in progress and will be updated!

Shocking and depressing that successful musicians still can’t turn a profit — I get the impression there’s a lot of grifting in the system forcing up costs for the artists
