I had the pleasure of having my laptop stolen today (swiped off a desk in a client office while I went to the loo!), and of course I hadn't backed up music for over a year and don't use iCloud. While music purchased from iTunes will be on my new laptop, I have a lot on my iPhone that's not on...

will be there with the misses for a couple of days after christmas (after spending the holiday in the midlands with my wife's family). it's the first time i'm there at this time of the year, are there any quintessential "xmas in london" things we should do or parts of town where we should...

http://radio.garden pretty fascinating toy, heard some out-there indigenous sounds from places like lagos, istanbul, azores. one other finding: the same shit top 40 music gets played in many parts of the world.

didn't want this to get lost within the all-encompassing trump thread. it's incredible that this actually happened, so much distracting craziness in the election that it really hasn't received the spotlight that it should. i mean, c'mon, fucking russia directly meddled in and influenced the...
