Sean Mccann - The Capital


Sean Mccann is a great and relatively new ambient/drone musician on the scene. His 2011 record 'The Capital' is pure bliss, and escapist in a way the album cover would suggest. I recommend this wholeheartedly.

Various Artists - Funf


Probably the best minimal techno/ambient techno compilation from the greatest club in the world and the home of the scene - Ostgut Ton // Berghain. 2 and a half hours of cold steel. Pattern recognition, industrial growth and decay and the very beating heart of the dancefloor. Eat your heart out.

Heya folks

not too sure how many people follow or keep updated with this blog but I've had to take a hiatus because of extensive threatening and complaining from RIAA and their assclown goons. I'll be sure to be back in a month or two.

Pirating beloved art till the day I die.

Leonid Fedorov - Lilac Day


One of the best songwriters and composers of Russia, as referenced in my earlier post about his band Auktyon. Here's his solo record from 2003, the aptly titled 'Lilac Day'.


Are you drunk on substance or intoxicated with memory? sometimes it's hard to tell, isn't it?

The Human League - Dare


The Human League were a new wave act, very influential and very good, for all the right reasons. Their magnum opus 'Dare' will make you jive, make no mistake.


don't you want me?

Tuxedomoon - Desire


Tuxedomoon are a San Francisco based experimental act formed in 1977. They are still quite a prolific and active band, still releasing records and touring today. However, their late 70's/early 80's records form part of Ralph Records' amazing roster of weird bands - and are a complete pleasure to listen to. This is my favourite of theirs, Desire.



Non-stop erotic cabaret, new wave in spirit and kind of velvet in mood, Tuxedomoon deliver the perfect soundtrack to living vicariously through the eyes of someone just like you, but cooler, more seductive and possibly far more perverse. Live a thousand lives via pictures.
