I've been feverishly ripping/digitising tracks (from original cassette, vinyl, and CD), & together with author Jamie Taylor, recorded a few links – producing a sequence of tracks & chat which ended up as our @bbc6music.bsky.social Freak Zone Playlist for Ken Patten’s Studio Electrophonique.

A few weeks ago, author & broadcaster Simon Strong dropped by at Do It Thissen Towers for a chat about the Sheffield music scene. Our conversation was recorded for broadcast on a show which Simon co-hosts back in Australia (The Planet X show on 3CR Radio). Oh, and we played a few records.

Tonight’s gig, 50 years ago (21 February 1975) - Ash Ra Tempel playing their UK debut in Guildford sandwiched between a uni/local rock band (Moonmouse) & French prog (Ange). Spoke with Ange after the gig and got stickers! Sadly no memories of Ash Ra Tempel 🙁

Blimey, you wait years to attend a turntable-based sound installation and then two turn up on the same night in the same city. Luckily, the event timings and a less than 10-minute travel time between venues means that both are do-able! Hurrah!

Temperature inside the “Carve Cave” is about 9 degrees C at present. Luckily the radiator in there is controlled by a phone app, so it should be pretty cosy by the time I’ve finished breakfast. Today’s task - cut a few more “lizard green” Wet Man 7” singles
