Going to my first ever @mets.com home game on Sunday. I was a kid in Arkansas watching WOR on satellite TV in the mid-80s, I never thought I’d get the chance. If I run into anybody from the team or SNY I’ll be a blubbering fool (big nerd for broadcasting). Queens is not ready for my accent. Haha

Played B-Side in Memphis last Friday night. You should watch this whole show, but my 35-ish minute set starts at 52:45. Phenomenal sound. #memphismusicnow www.youtube.com/live/mzJWbkb...

Trying my hand at BlueSky again, to see if I can actually reach people here. If you like electronic musicians who seem deathly allergic to sticking to a subgenre, you might like me!

Alright. I went on and cut the umbilical cord on this thing. jrobot.Bandcamp.com/album/bloom Trying to get the word out about this has been downright painful. Also keeping the $5 price one more day because a promise is a promise.

Tomorrow we travel to St. Louis - early birthday treat from my family - to see the Cardinals and the Mets play. I’d root for the Cardinals against anybody else, but it’s the @mets.com …

Yelling into the void is fun, so I’m gonna do it again. New song up! The opening track for BLOOM is called “Allergic to Success” which honestly sounds more accurate every day. Lol jrobot.bandcamp.com/track/allerg...

Last time I tried to put out an album, the lockdown happened. Now I’m trying to put out an album and the country is … whatever the hell this ends up being. It’s hard not to take it a little personally, universe. lol

J.Robot @jrobot.bsky.social · 19/04/2025

I’ve been using the GoFundMe I put up to write about the songs on the album. I don’t know what’s going to happen with it. Feels like the wrong time, but also it may never be the right time ever again. gofund.me/f732b58c

@elittlechild.bsky.social - I’m watching the Easter eggs video for The Robot Revolution and … I would swear transmats have been around since The Seeds of Death back in the Troughton years. Haven’t gone back to check. I love WhoCulture and appreciate your work!!!

J.Robot @jrobot.bsky.social · 16/04/2025

I actually think I could move up the digital release date for the album, and maybe that would make people more interested in participating in the GoFundMe to make a physical version of the album. Or would it? Either way, it’s coming. Any thoughts, Skyfriends?

I have had multiple people seem … well, startled by the fact that I’ll be 50 this year. Is it such a surprise?

J.Robot @jrobot.bsky.social · 09/04/2025

Should I add another song to preview this week? If you need something new for your Bandcamp library and love electro pop that flirts hard with darker sounds and themes, consider this: jrobot.bandcamp.com/album/bloom

I know I am supposed to be doing this big push to hype up my upcoming album, and do this pre-order/crowdfunding thing … but if you want a digital copy of it when it’s ready, but can’t afford it, PLEASE e-mail me (interface@listentojrobot.buzz) and I will give you one.

I’ve been thinking about iamamiwhoami lately, and how those first videos had more than a few people losing their mind trying to figure out who it was. I miss mysteries like this. Of those early songs, “o” might be my favorite. youtu.be/MMroXbAmrI8?...

So “Annie, Fade to White” is absolutely 100% about Annie from the original Friday the 13th film. It’s also the first thing I’ve ever released specifically with Halloween in mind, AND it’s kind of a tribute to my friend Chad Simpson, who was a big fan of those movies and passed in 2023.

I remember all too little of the interviews I did with rock stars when I was briefly employed as the music critic for a national newspaper, but there is this.

24 years ago I was sent to a London pub by a newspaper to interview and drink whisky (no “e” over here) with Lemmy, who was in the band Motorhead and, before that, slightly less famously, Hawkwind and, before that, much less famously, Sam Gopal. We had a good chat: about being from the part of the Midlands north of the River Trent, about books, and about roadying for Hendrix in the mid-60s (him, not me; I was minus nine at the time). When the record company PR sidled over to tell me my time was up, Lemmy waved him away. “No, no, I’m enjoying this,” he said, commandingly. I realised at this point that I had another question I’d been meaning to ask but hadn’t. “Are you scared of anything?” I said to Lemmy. “Nothing,” he replied. Then he paused and frowned for a moment, as if an idea had suddenly occurred to him. “Oh, maybe snakes,” he said. “It’s because they’ve got no shoulders.”

Adventures in eating lunch: I had a sweet kale salad with poppyseed dressing. Afterwards I had a Dr. Pepper. The combination of the two had my mouth on fire. Wtf. 🤔

Any darkwave-adjacent vocalists with nothing to do who like doing backing vocals looking for something to do? I could use a voice that isn’t mine. Female or female-presenting probably preferred, but I’m open to the males I guess. Lol

What I see as a … complication, if you will, of sharing music online is that the populations seem imbalanced between musicians and non-musicians. There is nothing wrong with musicians being in the population (for obvious reasons) but where are the other listeners? Is this perceived gap just me?

I don’t care about astrology, but I heard someone referring to Scorpios as having “Dark Knight energy” and that feels true.
