Difficult Art And Music

I just want to say, unequivocally, that I was never a friend of Peter Mandelson, despite the WhatsApp messages to the contrary. We barely spoke during the recording of that trilogy of avant-electro albums he did for DAAM, and he only stayed at my house that 1 time coz his train home got cancelled.

Global economy must move past GDP to avoid planetary disaster, warns UN chief Exclusive: António Guterres says world’s accounting systems should place true value on the environment

It’s a bit dry, but this is arguably the most important thing that humans can do right now to avoid our planets demise (short of abolishing capitalism, which isn’t a realistic goal in the near/mid future):

As close as we're going to get to another TEXT album. I'm sold.

Just played the most awkward gig of my life. My set was 'fine', but tensions between the organizers devolved into borderline cruelty.

Honestly, with all that's going on in the world - if you can't be nice to people around you, just be quiet and go home. No need to publicly admonish people.

nothing like joining your local community Facebook group to discover how many racists live in your pretty little town.

One of those days where it feels crazy to do ANYTHING but stare agog at the news, but that's no more helpful than getting on with things: creating art is at its core a step towards potentiality - others ways of being beyond reality as it stands.

Which is a long way of saying: new Patreon is up!

Been reading a book about the collapse of major civilisations throughout history.

It’s striking both how similar many of the triggers are to whats currently happening in the US, and how quickly (as in, a few decades) large civilisations can completely fall apart.

Finally got a job interview for a job I actually want. I did explain in my application that I have no real experience solving 'marginalized, unsolved cases involving paranormal phenomena' for a fringe department within the FBI, but they seemed to think I could learn on the job.

The Talking Castle, by Near Minerals 10 track album

Not checked out Near Minerals Talking Castle OST yet?

As a small label the numbers are always tight. But if I sell 4 more copies of the vinyl, I can afford to do a full pressing, which would be amazing.

Could YOU make all the difference?

to be fair, I'm pretty sure only three of four albums were released this week, so they had slim pickings.
