commentsThe six years between 1976 and 1982 probably had the greatest impact on my musical roadmap. I had a big preference for British punk and new wave around that time and this evolved into electronic abrasiveness and the intentionally (very) unconventional.
commentsI watched the first episode of the latest Twin Peaks “Limited Event Series” last night. OMG! It is way, way beyond what I expected.
commentsWhat a disjointed old month this has been. A day trip to Wellington, 2 nights in Auckland and back again to Wellington for another 3 days over the last couple of weeks has made me crave for my home roots.
commentsIt’s a fucking outrage that this record isn’t even listed on Dimmer’s discography on Allmusic.com Not only is this one of NZ’s best ever records, it’s an extraordinary example of world class songcraft and production.
commentsI possibly heard about this record while listening to the “All Songs Considered” podcast on one of my mindful(less) walks. It was one of those WTF moments where you stop in your tracks and take note of who and what before it’s all lost.
commentsWhat a big old pleasant surprise this was then! I bought this at Real Groovy in Auckland recently with the carrot of a “$5 off” sticker gracing the front sleeve.
commentsI needed some chill down music this evening. I’ve just arrived back from Auckland after a spectacular live show last night at one of the best venues I’ve ever been to.
commentsOne last spin before venturing to Auckland to see the Prog God in the flesh. This is my second Steven Wilson trip with my boy Pete.
commentsGreat reinterpretation of Bowie songs by the original cast members of “Lazarus” - a stage show commissioned by Mr. Jones himself just prior to his death in 2016.
