Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Music where the lyrics mention the genre it's in is as much an advertisement as "don't forget to like, subscribe, and ding that bell." 010

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 08/08/2026William Orbit productions never sounded cutting-edge, but they were routinely greater than the sum of their parts. I've often taken inspiration from that and described myself as following after him for that reason. R.I.P. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Minnie Riperton's "I'm a Woman" came out the year after Chaka Khan's "I'm Every Woman." Which means Minnie Riperton was declaring herself a very small part of Chaka Khan. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Ooh, can we decide Magic games on life totals? 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Our school board elections had $500,000 spent on them by butthurt parents of a kid who didn't get the position they wanted on the school robotics team. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 26/05/2026It will always be a writer's curse that an article saying "we're talking the right amount about this thing" will by definition upset the balance. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 14/05/2026Speaking as a mosaic who is also a band, I feel that truth in adver-t-shirts is important. 020
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Since then: My aunt, who has been a nanny for autistic children, has told my parents she thinks i am autistic. It didn't land well. (They've been butthurt that the diagnosing doctor asked me, & not them, questions about my childhood. They've said I probably don't remember, whereas my mom would!) 110

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 03/05/2026I'm currently writing and producing an EP for a singer I've loved for around 20 years. It's nearly the *only* thing on my mind a lot of days. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 01/05/2026The Moreno-owned Angels will stop at nothing to stay the worst-run team in the AL West. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 28/04/2026Few of you follow me for this area of take, but: Craig Breslow is a weasel of a man. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 31/03/2026To quote their 2008 team promotional slogan: All Out All Season. (Being their first in ages sans Barry Bonds, the team missing the self-deprecating interpretation of the slogan has always tickled me.) 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 28/03/2026A.J. Pierzynski: a famously hard-to-like human A nonzero number of women: likable humans I thought likability was something to aim for on television. Oh well. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Steve Winwood's "Higher Love" has inane lyrics - the kind I'd assume were written by a junior high kid who thinks they're deep and no one gets them. And yet I've never seen it in a list of bad lyrics. That's especially surprising for it being a #1 hit. I guess I have a new soapbox now! 001
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 10/03/2026Not that Vanilla Lake and Frappe Snowland were that favourable. Or, on the other hand, anything with lava. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 04/03/2026A review website I hadn't heard of said I made one of the best albums of the year in its genre! The album has sold 2 copies. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 26/02/2026Went to a barbershop yesterday that *only* takes cash (didn't have signs saying this) and correspondingly has an ATM in the back. I have no idea what to make of it. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 10/02/2026If somebody chooses not to respect professions whose output can be produces at home, then - voila! - nothing respectable is produced at home. Similarly, if in sports I ignore the opposing team's efforts, my side scores all the points. 010

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 30/01/2026My album with poetry rapper extraordinaire Declaime, called 10 Umbrellas for Your Soul, is out today!

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 24/01/2026I hope you enjoy the list! My research process for these would be characterized by most as "insane" and "too much." And that album at the end...she did a Twitter giveaway contest that I won, and that's how we know each other! 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 23/01/2026Advising on a whirlwind of items that are in Seattle news, helping Everett with its decennial charter review, trying to manage the release of my album with Declaime, in my first week of knowing I've been lactose intolerant all decade, getting ready to move (in-town) in two weeks, and more! 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 23/01/2026Just a few weeks ago, I put them on my best-of-2023 list. Hadn't heard of them really before then. restlessmosaic.com/2023list/ 110
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 21/01/2026When I was on the M15 cardname/flavor text team, I submitted flavor text for Aggressive Mining that was a callback to the flavor text for Squandered Resources. I don't think I ever had a clear favorite in my day, but (maybe influenced by age of your fav) Squandered Resources leapt straight to mind. 020
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 18/01/2026Will the Bracket 1 version live long enough to consistently display the bit? 110
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 16/01/2026New single and video!

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 11/01/2026That feels like a continuation of big marketing's off-the-shelf, supplied whimsy. "No, we're not high strung in Silicon Valley! We have software suggest hikes in the Appalachians!" (While posting on LinkedIn that seven days away from the business is for betas asking to go bankrupt.) 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 09/01/2026I've just confirmed that my new single is getting play at a club in Berlin. This was a fun sentence to type. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 07/01/2026I'm getting basically no sleep and it's at bizarre hours. But I also just cleared 1,000 monthly Spotify listeners for the first time. (It's day 5 of single #1 for this album with someone much more famous than me.) 000

Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 18/12/2025Real vibes of "Chang started his solo. Knowing him, that gives us only 9 minutes." 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 10/12/2025@gabyduboisjoli.bsky.social You might want to look at my just-finished best-of-2025 3-hour playlist that comes from checking out roughly 500 albums this year and is put in chronological order. Like, maybe at the end of the list or something. :-) restlessmosaic.com/2025list/restlessmosaic.com2025Given Spotify’s life choices, I don’t know whether it will be viable for playlists after this year. As it is, it’s missing this song for I think that reason: Plant43’s ̶… 110
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 10/12/2025This looks like you're making your own music video for Saint Etienne's "He's On the Phone." And I for one would enjoy that. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 05/12/2025A DJ with a food name has to refer to vinyls as "platters." It's the law of how-I-wish-it-worked. 020
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 04/12/2025I think writers as a group conflate articulability with relatability. And writers struggling with executive function and finding success are probably the plurality. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 01/12/2025Leave it to a drum machine-using follower like m'self to contribute 9.09% of the likes. 010
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 29/11/2025I find it harder to use their non-drum samples unless you like using Kontakt. But I've used them in a few things. It's the drums that really pop for me. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 29/11/2025Supplement it with the Samples from Mars Black Friday deal, and you've got the makings of...some makings? 120
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 23/11/2025That most is the key word, because you're right - when the loneliness hits, it hits hard. 000
Restless Mosaic @restlessmosaic.bsky.social · 23/11/2025I'm an only child, and that probably helped prepare me to be alone in music tastes generally and concerts specifically. But the time in 2014 when the Canadian border crossing guy asked "why aren't your friends going?" to an indie Japanese rock thing that was my trip purpose still stings a bit. 110
