Help me out here. I think I may have mentioned that I will be releasing a record shortly. Anyway, I need help on promo cos I'm doing what I can with zero budget but the artist is asking me questions like "Why isn't there a bbc show about the release?" so I can see that there is a slight... gap -...

Been watching Peep Show and, although it's very funny, there is something about the people involved - their constant failures, lies, the smallness of their world - that almost depresses me at the same time. And that reminded me that a friend once told me that he found Father Ted too depressing...

This is weird and scary https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/sep/13/killer-whales-launch-orchestrated-attacks-on-sailing-boats?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

This time with guest mix from Trol2000 who is a huge figure in Lisbon's music scene - he runs Peekaboo records and has been dj-ing since the early 90S It's the one that says Threads* on this link https://threadsradio.com/ More kinda cosmic this time in keeping with his selections.

Does anyone know anything about this? Has anyone seen any of the films? I've been fascinated by this since I first became aware of it four or five years ago. Weirdly though, I have somehow not managed to get round to watching the films yet even though they are now all available online (actually...

Dunno if this really counts as music. But the other day I had cause to mention that song My name is Yon Yonson, I live in Wisconsin, I work in the lumber mill there All the people I meet As I walk down the street Say - hey what's your name? Leading to him replying... My name is Yon Yonson etc...

I really wanna go there; really cheap, beautiful (from the pics) with amazing orthodox churches and that insane modernist road agency thing, apparently Georgians invented wine and I bet the food is good... you got Mutant Radio and Bassiani too. Soon as movement is free again I'm gonna make it my...

Is anyone watching this? It feels quite dissensus with its complex issues and East London setting. Well, quick bit of info for those who haven't heard about it. Basically Michaela Coel plays a woman who has just made it big-ish via a twitter account which got her a book deal and some moments of...

Another show we did - yet another one you could say - this time starting off with a load of pseudo-libraries on Drumetrics label and then just all over the shop...

This one is kinda all over the place... starts off all summery and then goes a bit weird I guess https://www.mixcloud.com/ThreadsRadio/train-to-the-invisible-city-w-lizatron-idle-rich-threadsloures-13-aug-20/ The first track is called Cunter Punch - is that a misprint for counter punch or is...

I got this record the other day... I like it but a lot of people don't. I guess it's boring to them, I don't know, but I realised how much I like repetitive music - in a sort of pop music context. Often when music is so repetitive in one element it's so that you can change it a bit - or...

What's happening?

Not a joke. I think I've been mixing these up all my life. I get that AD originated in France and IM in US (apparently) but if I see a building, ornament etc how do I know which it is?

My girlfriend went gallivanting around France recently and she came back with a new found appreciation for castles. That meant that two days ago we went to look at Sesimbra castle which is about 45 minutes drive from where we live. She was amazed at how badly maintained it was compared to even...

Has anyone used this at all? Before lockdown we were having some Portuguese lessons but that kinda came to the end, and to be honest, I was doing very well [EDIT - that should have said WASN'T]. But I really do want to learn properly so I've been trying this Duolingo thing - it actually seems...

I was just about to start this thread a week or two back but then Version did his horror renaissance one and it seemed too similar. Now though the time is right. I wanted to say that there is "new" (probably going back twenty years or more really) kinda comedy that I see more and more. My guess...

Strange one cos in a way I couldn't really give a shit - and on the other hand I couldn't care less. And yet... yet it reveals the fragility of print media or something. Guardian also has the begging bowl out.. maybe thread should have had a broader title

I forgot to say that but we're on now. Half an hour of me and Liza, then an hour of our guest (one of Liza's mates from Russia) and then us again for the last half hour https://threadsradio.com/ As always the Threads* link on the right.

I like trains. The most exciting and romantic method of travel. I love stations in the middle of Europe (or even in London in fact) where you can stand and feel something of the magic of countless destinations (and arrivals too giving then an international flavour), to the far East or just to a...

There's this guy I know called Vadim Kosmos - I've never been able to get his real name out of him - who used to work in that comic shop with a Batman thing outside it in the west end, then he was managing that weird place called The Last Tuesday Society in Hackney. Anyway, he has very serious...
