(2) Goldfrapp - 'Cologne Cerrone Houdini', 2008, into 'Serenity' by DJ Trax, 1999, originally released as Trax's debut LP on CD and Vinyl only, on the Lacerba label - now uploaded to www.bandcamp this month as digital.

() Throughout the week, mixes of interplaying vocals. 'If he loved you, like I love you, I would walk away in shame, I would consider myself to change my names', mixed with 'one of these morning's, won't be there alone - you were there for me, I'd be gone'. But what for? A mishearing perhaps? Like this mishearing of another piece of lifeline music by Angel Olsen, which epitomised by fortnight: 'I laughed so hard inside myself it all began to hurt '. But there is hope. Angel Olsen's newest LP will be one of my fave records of 2025, (...) and my LP of this week is...Sharon Van Etten - Sharon Van Etten And The Attachment Theory. Music that sounds like it hurts to make it, however never sinks beneath quality, and never into parody. Music is always a lifeline for me. Whoever you are, I hope you have a fantastic week!

This week's quote 22nd January 2025 [] Todays quote comes from Neal Stephenson, in a online paper about various forms of 'Critical Mass'...[ 'We are all susceptible to the pull of viral ideas. Like mass hysteria. Or a tune that gets stuck into your head that you keep humming all day until you spread it to someone else. Jokes. Urban legends. Crackpot religions. No matter how smart we get, there is always this deep irrational part that makes us potential hosts for self-replicating information'.] ~Neal Stephenson, 'Em Snow Crash Em] Included in: www.fs.blog/critical-mass/] ...Records Of My Week...

SubVersion Stop 270: This week

Simplified reads. Simplified production. Simplified record lists. Great to be writing on Subversion this year 2025. Reads this week.. Naomi Klein - Doppelganger: A Trip Into The Mirror World Boxing headlines but not stories, investigating the connection between absorbency and ninja like movements, as the nature of lateral thinking related to responding in a straight line, rather than a parabolic line. Autocracy in effect - distinctions between soul searching without the unsettling. A preposition to the hardcore continuum, but in a psychological re read that plunders the streets rather than samples. Wildlife, fossilisation projects, endangered flora and fauna. And a pocket full of Posies. The triumph of common sense. Holding back to preclude relaxation, reading beyond mindful walks in the street, soft Skating, Pokémon GO Routes as a pedometer to healthy living, Green Tea, Salads. Production this week.. Foci Left - The Unsettled Line. Includes a range of unsettled productions, including a classical track influenced by Arvo Part - 'Silentium'. As per, let me know if you want free uploads. Pianissimo as a sound design study, influenced by Low Light Mixes piano mixes. Mixes this week.. Barriers Spilling Black Mist: A Dark Drone Metal Mixtape Leyland Kirby David Tagg Barn Owl Xorgett Record lists this week..
