Folks, I am very excited to announce the new Deep Groove Mono site-wide Music Player. The player will run in the background as you browse. You can also shuffle, filter, and sort on the fly. One of my favorite happy accidents with it so far has been leaving it running on shuffle and ... More→

Going around the street fair at Folsom and instead of asking people their astrology sign, asking which Dogs of War faction they'd be in: Gayboy Berserkers, Smega Crazies, Punks or Skins? I think that despite appearances, I would be a Gayboy Berserker. #madmax #madmax2 #folsom #folsomEurope #berlin #kink #fetish #gay #lgbtqia

What is your favorite song from last year? I listen to 6Music largely to get access to some new music.

I acknowledge I’m violating the letter and spirit of yesterday’s poast. But the only p(doom) I care about is how much more wreckage this norovirus will cause in our house. _ Reply via email

A great Dickerson title.

I’m very happy to have found this title recently, which is a fantastic session from 1962. Features a great band consisting of Dickerson on vibes,…

The great Brockley beer shop/bar waterintobeer celebrated its tenth birthday last month with a series of events and some cans especially for the occasion. Earlier this year too Acoustic Anarchy celebrated its 100th event at waterintobeer, marking the event with a one off zine listing everyone who has played there (including me). As promoter Martin Howard set out in the zine, the monthly night is a great example of 'DIY Culture' with people turning up and singing unplugged (mostly).The beer and…

🎵 Listening to Live in Washington Sq Park by New Jazz Underground. I really liked listening to this set by this jazz trio. There was something really beautiful about the organic, candid cinematography. And all three musicians were sharp.

I went in a bit blind on this one. This album has very nearly no online presence, but I did know that Kat Hendrix had played in Skywalk, a favourite local fusion jazz band, so I was willing to take a chance on it without any other context. And I'm glad I did! This is very early-90s smooth jazz, that period when everything in fusion jazz very suddenly chilled out. I think when I was younger I might not have liked this so much - might have worred about finding it embarrassing, gotten wrapped up…

Hey people! I’ve recently discovered a really intriguing album, about which I’m surprised that I didn’t come across it earlier than I did; same about the artist behind it. Alannah Thornburgh is an Irish multi-instrumentalist, primarily harpist, from Swinford in County Mayo. She comes from a very musical family, with both of her parents playing instruments – her father, Rob Thornburgh, is a saxophonist, which is likely where her specific flavour of harping, influenced by jazz and Appalachian…

Most of the discourse around Sad Lovers & Giants hereabouts has focused on their earliest works and specifically the labyrinthine mess of singles, EPs, albums, and compilations that make finding and owning the material that cemented them as one of the best overlooked bands of early post-punk and new wave so frustrating. In doing so, […] The post Sad Lovers & Giants – “Asylum Town” appeared first on Space Echo.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - The Great Western Forum, Inglewood, California, September 11, 1996Hey hey my my — 30 years ago this evening, I saw Neil Young & Crazy Horse for the very first time. The Great Western Forum, a spot Neil had been playing since 1970. Right at the beginning of my senior year of high school. Old man, take a look at my life, I’m old now too! Here’s something sacrilegious: I think I enjoyed the Neil + Booker T & the M.G.’s show from exactly three years prior more! This may…

Welsh metalheads Dream State dropped a new single of sparkling synths cut through with dirty guitar and Jessie's voice builds from naive cut glass to the shrieking of avenging angels — "Forever in View". From the warping bass opening note to the sustained wash synth that closes "I've Never Felt So Hated", Chloe Slater pulls out something a bit darker than her last couple of singles. Maturing into her sound comfortably. A new EP from Emma Blackery is always welcome. Four tracks in that…

Describe a concert that changed your perspective on music or life. Pick a song from that artist or band. I have a photo from the gig. The lights from the stage are pointing at the crowd, dazzling, the silhouette of hands raised in unison, in joy, form a sea before me. I’d been to many gigs but this one, this moment, sticks in my head. I’m not sure why but I think this was the first time I lost myself completely, gave in to the energy around me, raised my hands. I’ve always been a bit self…

Catching up on AEW Dynamite and what an emotional show. Very sad about The Butcher's death and at the same time so happy seeing Britt Baker and especially Rebel again—it reminded me of those good 'ole early days. ATS is a fight.

Scribed by Sandre the Giant Released: 25th July 2006 Metal albums have proven, time and time again, that magic can rise from the ashes of tragedy and so it was in 2006 with Canadian technical thrash icons Voivod and their eleventh record (for a thrash band to hit that in 06 is a crazy achievement) ‘Katorz’. With guitar and bass tracks written and recorded by Denis ‘Piggy’ D’Amour alongside Jason Newsted in Newsted’s studio before Piggy sadly was claimed by colon cancer in 2005, it seemed the…

Review by Sandre the Giant Released: 19th June 2026 If you wanted me to guess where Japan-inspired horror black metal duo Saidan were from, I’d have guessed a thousand places before Nashville, Tennessee but I guess there’s more than country hiding in them there parts. ‘Fangdriller: Scars Beeath Memory’s Wrist’ is the band’s fourth full length record, and I heard a lot of buzz about it when it first came out from all the right people. The aesthetic looks incredible, and the music contained…

Magical musical musings care of the marvellous John Matthews. Fantastic Twins is the avant-garde, electronic project of French artist, Julienne Dessagne. For over a decade her music has graced labels such as Hippie Dance, Optimo and House of Slessor. In 2024, Dessange covered Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game”, for a live performance at the Beta Biennale Of Architecture Of Timișoara. Subsequently receiving a limited digital / Bandcamp release, her “Trinity Version” completely re-contextualised the…

Thanks again to my brother Paul for providing the scans, cheers Paul! Nobukazu Takemura × Aphex Twin walk on the child’s side Nobukazu Takemura first self-produced a single in 1992. His first single was released by Mowax in 1993. Introduced to the UK as a representative of Japanese jazz/hip-hop alongside DJ Krush and others, Takemura maintained a unique distance from street music, working as a producer of spiritual vibes while releasing his own solo album in 1994. Then, in 1995, when the…

What I am looking forward to in September: finding out who Pearl Jam’s new drummer will be at the end of the month.

Bassist Ron McClure just released a memoir, appropriately titled Bass in Time.McClure briefly was a member of Guaraldi's trio, from late 1973 through early 1974. By the time he came into Guaraldi's orbit, the bassist already had enjoyed a busy career on both coasts. McClure toured California in the mid-1960s with Wes Montgomery, Jimmy Cobb and Wynton Kelly. McClure eventually moved to California in 1969, at which point he joined the jazz quartet The Fourth Way, alongside Eddie Marshall, Mike…

Live report and recap from a night of digging in 2026 I wrote this in a live-action first person format but added an additional note at the end upon publication, September 2026. Enjoy :) Friday, July 24, 2026. Sitting down for a couple hours to chill on my computer, hop on Discord with a friend, craft some shit in Minecraft, and promote my new eco-centric low poly drum & bass track, cyber nutrients. The catch? I don’t want to shout at the clouds on all platforms (echoes of “Out Now!” in the…

Lou Reed - Ulster Performing Arts Center, Kingston, New York, September 12, 2006Someone hail a cab for Lou Reed — he’s got a show upstate! Yes, just about 20 years ago this week, Uncle Lou played the Ulster Performing Arts Center in Kingston, NY. Not sure if he wore UGGs onstage, but let’s just assume that he did. In a couple months, Reed would debut an ambitious re-staging of Berlin, taking that maligned/misunderstood/misanthropic 1973 LP around the world to rapturous crowds. But he wasn’t…
