‘Turn me on dead man’.⠀ ⠀ Droppin’ next week, from me to you, comes ‘Paul is Dead Man...Miss Him...Miss Him...’, a full hour of bizarre Beatles collages and the weirdest covers of The Fab Four since Shatner’s ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds’. Beatles nut? Then revel in a piece of niche Beatles obscuria! Loathe their saintly esteem and Rolling Stone magazine worship? Then relish the Lennon-McCartney song book gleefully torn apart with irreverence!⠀ ⠀ ‘Cranberry sauce...’

‘While chilly analogue production is still present, there’s a greater techno-driven kineticism that aims for dancefloor sweat. Pumped EBM beats pound with chunky sequencer thuds on the primed ‘Glycine’, a propulsive electro-banger which swells to momentous heights with waves of expertly twisting arpeggios and bass lines.’ @rueoberkampf.band @youngandcold.de - Link in bio #rueoberkampfband #christophephilippe #youngandcoldrecords #minimalwave #minimalsynth #synthwave #ebm #coldwave

Can you smell that acrid smoulder in the air? Tasting metal in your mouth again? That'll be the seventh dose of Spit 'n' Static! invading the @1020_radio studio again, a full hour of electrical punx, bedroom noodles, and signal hijacks! 👽 👌 - Link in bio Featuring labels: @klastrecords @muddgutsrecords @sweatequity_nyc @night_school @magneticsouthrecordings @darkentriesrecords @capturedtracks @bureaub_hamburg @blackesteverblack @minimalwave

A wild and brilliant force of nature, with a rapacious musical appetite which saw his jazz drumming skills for bands as diverse as Fela Kuti, Public Image Ltd., and Hawkwind. #RIPGingerBaker

‘For a record consisting of mainly keys and strings, the Bad Seeds perform an astonishing act of imbuing each track with a subtle distinct flavour, from the enchanted mourn of ‘Bright Houses’ to the ethereal gospel of ‘Leviathan’, every song creates a winding, twisting traverse of the full spectrum of manifest grief.’ @nickcaveofficial - Link in bio #nickcave #nickcaveandthebadseeds #ghosteen #ambient #minimalism #agriefobserved

‘I feel like a mistake. I feel like a milkshake...’ ⠀ ⠀ It’s that slime again! The seventh dose of Spit ‘n’ Static! will corrupt @1020_radio again next week, another hour of garbled synthpunk, juddering lo-fi experiments, and alien intrusions! 👽 👌⠀ ⠀ Cursed video by @deathorgone⠀ ⠀ #spitnstatic #1020radio #bristolradio #synthpunk #postpunk #avantgarde #newwavemusic #broadcastintrusion #signalintrusion
