Antonio Gallucci ~ Hope for Nothingness as Something With Hope for Nothingness as Something, Antonio Gallucci delivers a two-chapter suite that feels less like an album and more like a controlled philosophical quest. Written for modular and FM synth,…

FedEx just hit me with a customs bill weeks after delivery. I already paid 20€ for shipping, now they want an additional $20, and whatever I can pay the extra tarif but but 15$ of that is just a FedEx fee. Why the lack of transparency?

Eliane Radigue - Echos_Engsubs This is "Eliane Radigue - Echos_Engsubs" by Eleonore Huisse on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

In memory of Éliane Radigue the makers of this documentary have made it free to view online. What a lovely gesture

qd46 Machinefabriek @machinefabriek.bsky.social Listening party tonight - thanks for the support so far!

Special thanks to everyone that’s bought the CD, the first batch went out yesterday and more going today - as always remember to message me for the long-form edition if you picked one up!

Superb show by Makaya McCraven, Junius Paul, and Marquis Hill tonight! Review coming later this week

Forever changed by Éliane Radigue's music. Now she has gone into a vast silence. Thank you.

R.I.P. Éliane Radigue, one of the most innovative and radical composers of our century- if you haven’t heard her music yet, prepare for something simultaneously delicate and oceanic. I don’t love the word “genius” but she deserves it.

I only ever read it in the bookstore but same

I tried to pick a record I got at 19 that was new at the time. Saw them at Skirball at NYU maybe June 2003?

I think it’s still around but it was a very nicely designed and expensive anti consumerist magazine

Drop an album that was important to you when you were 19

This mix was made on a visit to Vancouver Island, and the accompanying photo is from the waterfront in São Luís, Brazil.

Charli XCX Does a Perfect 180 on Wuthering Heights The album is just as committed as Emerald Fennell is to melding old and modern worlds but it’s much less devoted to popping eyeballs.

Live music options in NYC, February 1976

Gonna have to check this one out. I saw Tomeka Reid and Mary Halvorson play a free gig in Chicago several years ago (Mary also plays on this album) and it was great.

miska lamberg and the practice of sound recycling miska lamberg makes ambient music from the world as it exists, not how we wish it sounded. Their debut album Evening, window gathers overlooked moments (rainfall, distant traffic, animal calls, etc…

miska lamberg's "Evening, window" turns everyday noise into something luminous. We talked about sound recycling, misophonia, and making music in a world without silence. A really special record, and really love this conversation. @dragonseyerecordings.com

Lawrence English: Relational Listening and Room40's 25 Years Composer Lawrence English discusses his listening theory, Trinity collaboration, Room40's anniversary, and why nostalgia threatens the future.

This was honestly a joy. Lawrence at @thetonearm.com , was open to covering some wide terrain including my proposal of Acid Nostalgia, listening and weight lifting, surprise, and the joys of collaborating with people like stephen vitiello.

Anyone I know going to Big Ears this year?
