more plinky plonky piano music. there's a comparison to richard clayderman in the comments, which seems a bit harsh. whatever, i find this sort of thing deeply soothing

lovely wee doco of a time and, perhaps, a type of approach that feels like it's passed by and which wouldn't survive in the modern day politics of soundbites and name calling. nice too, to watch something where the maker doesn't treat the viewer like an idiot

noisy noise
then i listen to a bunch of female fronted punk bands. great energy but a law of diminishing returns and none of them get near hearing pj harvey for the first time. or now for that matter. but i had a lovely shouty afternoon.
what a great noise this squad make. their videos tho, genuinely awful and what live performances i saw were not the best. this tho, is a laugh and, if was i was going to soundtrack rita bullwinkel's novel headshot, this would be ideal. their follow up i hate when girls die is an absolute metal riff monster

this doing heavy rotation on my playlist. rhythm section is relentless and she's got real presence. plus,a song that's about something. i thought those days were past!

An-Ting
came across an-ting vis an insta real where she was apparently out doing some sound recording. couldn't see what her gear was but, if this was the result (and hasn't been stepped all over), what a good job. altogether intriguing tho and am surprised i haven't heard of her in any of the sound recording things i'm on
*i'm still doing no sound recording despite the recent purchase of new mics. am hoping this'll inspire me a bit!
