Perhaps the coziest version of The Ghost of Christmas Passed is this fireside version by @chrishobbsmusic.bsky.social - it also includes the original Christmas Passed. Get warm and comfy under a blanket with your tea or your toddy and enjoy a crackling fire with quiet music in the background.

Thankyou for this, Jude! And thankyou for the ongoing support ❤️

Thanks Ampwall! Obviously 2025 has been a big year for discussing how awful Spotify is, so it thrills me to say how awesome everyone at Ampwall is - consider giving the latest compilation a spin on their platform ❤️

www.musicmark.org.uk/news/the-pro... Disappointing news. My music course gave me the skills and confidence to slowly transition and excel in software testing and development. I now live in Cardiff and walk past the department regularly. It would be a poorer city for this loss.

Struggling to think of any particular favourites after a first listen, but I'm overwhelmed by the quality of the music in general.

It's a strange feeling, to grieve for someone you didn't truly know - but I do truly feel that the world is a little poorer without this man in it.

Chris Hobbs (Musician, UK) @chrishobbsmusic.bsky.social · 16/01/2025

To this day I still really enjoy his works. I find it infinitely more watchable and glean a lot more from it now. I've spent many hours listening to him speak on various topics and found him thoroughly engaging to listen to at each turn.

Chris Hobbs (Musician, UK) @chrishobbsmusic.bsky.social · 16/01/2025

I think David Lynch was what got me interested in art, and especially abstract art. It played a huge part in my development as a person. I remember finding Eraserhead utterly impenetrable at 14 years old, but that sense of being puzzled was truly very inspiring.
