Over the course of the album’s seven pieces, Ov Pain really do push the limits of their comparatively limited instrumentation... auralaggravation.com/2025/11/22/o... @room40.bsky.social @dense-pr.bsky.social

No plans just yet. But I like that idea!

That and “Trinity” released on the same day made it a very good day indeed. Both are gorgeous records in their different ways

Good shit. Highly recommended.

Myself and Stephen Vitiello celebrate the release of our record of threes - Trinity - out on American dreams today!

Mamoru Oshii’s rendering of Ghost In The Shell is 30 today. This is a film that has lived inside me, and its themes are something I have visited, and revisited, through various periods of my work. I had the pleasure to interview the film’s composer Kenji Kawai.

Nakadai was so much more than just a Mifune replacement in Kurosawa's final epics. He was a legendary presence working with Japan's greatest filmakers from the 60s to the 90s. I always love watching an older film and having him unexpectedly appear - as in Naruse's When a Woman Ascends the Stairs.

Recorded a Guest Mix for Radio Relativa that's full of favourites including @yannnovak.com, @room40.bsky.social, @brauliolam13.bsky.social and more!
