Have you seen this, droid? Bought it a few weeks ago, but I've only had a quick look so far. Drone and Apocalypse is an exhibit catalog for a retrospective of twenty-first-century art. Its narrator, Cynthia Wey, is a failed artist convinced that apocalypse is imminent. She writes critical...

Screenprinted my own Fugazi shirt

Spooky's a pretender. Not mentioned once in the book.

How Farage remembers entering the European Parliament...

Older tech and a bit more niche I guess but Phil Cirrocco's recording's of the Hammond Novachord he restored have a similar feel. Check out the restoration site too if you have any interest in the guts of these machines. This one is from the 30s and weighs two tonnes. You might try Howard...

Back to the Warp/etc. discussion - I did really admire the mixing on the Warp Blech II CD. The style, coupled with my mistaken understanding at the time that it was built on a computer, was probably the biggest influence on my first Ableton mixes. There's not a lot of it online but here are two...

A little dated now but we had this before too: http://www.dissensus.com/showthread.php?t=3678 Got these four years ago and still love them. Velour pads ... I can wear them all day. http://kenrockwell.com/audio/beyer/dt-880.htm

Not my best moment.

Revenge of the nerd: I've been reading The Song Machine and learned that Dr. Luke (as in Kesha, Avril Lavigne, Katy Perry, etc.) started out producing for Rawkus under the name Kasz. Can't find any clips though.

Not the lineage you're looking for but I thought those Cruisin' records were pretty great when I was a kid for that reason...

Sorry if I've flogged this old mix of mine too many times, but it's a favourite and it's... Lots of pirate chatter built in. LOTS of text commentary to go along with it. http://www.deeptime.net/blog/?p=38 http://www.weareie.com/audio/blogariddims/blogariddims08.mp3

I love this George Peckham interview... Beatles to No U Turn. Funny guy too.

The Beasties video for 'Sabotage' was an early spark for that ironic-cheese, so-bad-it's-good, look-at-my-stupid-fucking-moustache, i'm-afraid-of-genuine-sentiment-so-i'll-just-joke-dance-to-this-"80s"-tune horseshit that plagued most of the 00s.

Pop for me. Carly Rae, Kali Uchis, PC Music and I liked the way Jess Glynne took over every track she guested on.

Ha! Bloggers in the wild. I remember hearing you Woebot and k-punk on that Resonance doc years ago. Somehow no one sounded like I'd have expected.

Will the horse be in your movie? I like your Instagram, luka. Most people on there forget about the camera on the back of their phone so all you get is human heads. Yours has a few but it's mostly other things which is great.

It's a bit nasal. You might need more RAM.

The mic and the space are the most important things. I've just been through this with students making podcasts. Phone recordings usually don't sound good enough to work with unless you're really careful and bit lucky. Laptop mic is worse. If you can borrow a decent USB mic or a digital...
