It's my long held belief that great things happen when musicians work with visual artists to create unique album artwork. Now, more than ever.

I do like finding publishing ephemera. Here's a brochure from Tartarus Press, c. 2003. STRANGE TALES was the first of five anthology volumes edited by Rosalie Parker. They had just launched their journal WORMWOOD. Tartarus are still going strong. Order books from them: www.tartaruspress.com

Coldcut talking about how they sample “noise” in 1989 for BBC2’s ‘Reportage’ show and how it’s like cutting up photos into a collage. “We wanted to be the first people to put a DJ type of record out”.

I had this album bookmarked for a long time before I got around to listening to it, but it's one of the most impressive albums I've heard this year (it came out in 2024). It balances its disparate influences (math rock, Shibuya-kei, jazz, glitch, etc) so well zxc0514.bandcamp.com/track/filters

Harpo Marx possessed the verbal wit to hold his own as a member of the Algonquin Round Table, chose to exclude this gift entirely from his public persona, and still became one of the most beloved and influential comedians of all time. AND he was a musical prodigy. Goddamn.

Cold enough for a sweater this morning. Autumn light filtering through the trees. A pinch of cinnamon & cardamom in the moka pot, as a treat. The planet continues to fall inexorably in its orbit, the axis wobbling ever so slightly. The moon tugs against the tide. Would Newton have liked apple pie?

Naming a thing increases its mimetic power. Even to say one has never heard of a thing is a form of engaging with the thing, and it only serves to make the thing more visible.
