today is the 50th anniversary of Richard and Linda Thompson’s beautiful and terrifying ‘I Want to See the Bright Lights’ tonight. I’m quite proud of my piece about it from a few years ago, which you can read here: pitchfork.com/reviews/albums…
I stole my friend's girlfriend. It was all whirlwind heat, and flash. Within a week we killed my parents and hit the road...
Rest in peace MC Conrad 🕊️ A true legend, he formed an incredible partnership with LTJ Bukem, releasing a string of seminal anthems.
I had the pleasure of narrating this fascinating book (on @audibleuk now). We had so much to talk about after each recording session. So many tracks to check out - I’ve certainly discovered/rediscovered some gems & he’s even done a playlist for you! ⤵️😍 open.spotify.com/playlist/5ef8R…
My new book Futuromania is out today in the UK via @WhiteRabbitBks ! Details at my blog, including the @NTSlive show I just did around the book blissout.blogspot.com/2024/04/futuro…
Anyone who still supports Trump after reading this is a traitor to America and everything our nation stands for.
Truly saddened to hear the awful news that MC Conrad has left us. One of the best to ever do it. A very sad day for drum and bass and a reminder of how fragile this life thing is, my thoughts go out to his family and close friends. Rest easy Conrad. ❤
Sad news about the passing of MC Conrad. Part of the progression of sounds. The voice of jungle journeys into the atmosphere. Enhancing & elevating the artform. RIP. #jungle #dnb #drumandbass #soundsystemculture #ukmusic
Today is another sad day for the music industry.. We have lost another legend known to us as MC Conrad. I was only speaking to him the other week May you rest in peace sir and thank you for your support and kind words.
And we've lost MC Conrad now - way too soon. His soulful lyrical flow in tandem with LTJ Bukem, letting the music breathe, was the antithesis to a lot of MCs at the time. Latterly getting into production & running his own label, he'll be sorely missed. RIP youtube.com/watch?v=lItXDX…
When people on here are described as having gone ‘down the rabbit hole’ i.e. become radicalised by social media, is it a reference to Alice in Wonderland? Alice’s adventures underground are psychedelic and mind-expanding >
Although online only, Our Price is returning. Who else remembers this record store? I remember them having to dump all their Crass stock at one point, and gave it away, but I also bought Birthday Party and Joy Division records on release! whathifi.com/news/legendary…
Bladee Best New Music babyyyy pitchfork.com/reviews/albums…
It deeply sucks that Claire & Thrill Jockey worked hard on the new LP and that Nadine had to self-publish that piece, meaning so much chatter about the record now revolves around this horrifying incident. That people kept asking about Nadine at the album release party is shitty.
Cosmic Dancer by T Rex being used in an ad for Tredmaire carpet underlay is the true death knell of 20th century culture
Nothing drummers love more than scraping their stick across the ride cymbal to make that spooky little noise. Wow, what a sound, are you supposed to even do that? Somebody call The Wire get this iconoclast on the cover

It should be evident to anyone who actually watched the State of the Union, the Howard Stern interview, or the Correspondents dinner speech that Joe Biden is sharp as a tack, quick witted, kindhearted, and genuinely funny. That works for me.
Has there ever been a whinier human being in American public life than Donald Trump?
George W was excoriated at the White House Correspondents Dinner. He still attended. And he never whined about it.
